Adam Riley of cubed3.com reviews 7 Wonders II for the Nintendo DS. Despite being a game of an addictive nature, it only manages a six out of ten. Read on to find out why.

Rather than providing some half-baked attempt at a story, the premise of 7 Wonders II is simply that players must travel to seven locations around the world, and help workers construct wondrous buildings, monuments and structures, such as Stone Henge, The Great Wall of China, Angkor Wat and the Shwedagon Pagoda. Instead of merely leaving it at that, though, upon reaching each location, historical facts are provided on each feature, such as how the chief mason that built the Taj Mahal had one hand chopped off by the emperor to prevent him ever creating anything quite as magnificent. Gruesome, but intriguing nonetheless!
