I should've known something was up right from the game's start. I was asked to draw the game's world, the sun, and the moon before I had a chance to create my character; the end result for all three were flat, ugly, two-dimensional eyesores that clashed horribly with the game's colorful, polygonal world. This wouldn't necessarily be a big problem, but the game gives you such limited tools in which to expand on your creations, however detailed you decide to make them, that there's really no practical way to make anything you do blend well with its surroundings. I don't care if the Wii is underpowered-your 'artist's studio' is little more than a glorified recreation of Kid Pix, (yeah, I went there), and in an era of games with such robust creative toolsets as LBP or the upcoming (and meticulously detailed) Mod Nation Racers, that's pretty unacceptable.DTL Wii seems content to do what so many sequels do-take an established formula, tweak it a little, and release it. The problem is, the idea behind DTL's original formula was flawed to begin with. Rather than giving you full creative control over your creations, DTL Wii relegates you to set designer about 80 percent of the time, filling in objects in the world that make it 'your own'. You do get to create your own avatar, though not your own enemies or NPCs, and character creation suffers from the artistic shortcomings as the rest.

What isn't allowed is any sort of creative integration, or as is the case with the levels, placement.The game suggests that you draw, say, leaves falling in a forest, or maybe the nose on a snowman. But what happens if you for some reason don't? I'll tell you what happens: there are blank, dotted squares in pre-programmed places in a level, like an undecorated sticker book. Locked heart quotes.

So right off the bat, most of the drawing available in the game is completely pointless, and has no bearing on anything actually needed to get through a given level aside from lending a likely-unappealing aesthetic signature to the environment you're in.
