Amazon.com Product Description:
In All Star Cheer Squad, players will follow a year in the life of a cheerleader as you learn new cheers, participate in practices and create your own routines in the hopes of making the squad and eventually becoming its captain. High-energy gameplay includes squad competitions and one-on-one cheer-offs, where players will use the Wii Remote and Nunchuk to perform dozens of real-world cheer and dance moves.

In order to ensure that All Star Cheer Squad has the latest cheer action and top routines, world-renowned cheerleading choreographer Tony G, best known for his work in the "Bring It On" movies, has signed on as chief consultant for the game. All Star Cheer Squad will also incorporate use of the Wii Balance Board to get the player's entire body involved in the game and add to the ultimate cheerleading experience. Players will be able to customize the look of their cheerleader and squad including body, facial features, hair and outfits.

Show the Squad What you Are Made Of
The backstory that plays out in All Star Cheer revolves around player's attempts to make the 'Fox Squad' cheer roster. Although a top squad, they have suffered a tough setback when one of their top captains has been sidelined by injury. The show must go on though. Players goal in singleplayer modes is first to make the squad, later progressing up its ranks and finally putting what you've learned to good use as a choreographer.

Key Game Features:

Varied Gameplay
Gameplay within All Star Cheer Squad consists of players mimicking the stream of on-screen prompts, representing individual moves within a cheer routine, and accumulating points according to their accuracy. Action is registered through the use of various controllers. Ideally the game simulates a the range of body motion--both upper and lower--that a cheerleader utilizes. With this in mind, to take advantage of the game's full potential players should use both the combination of a Wii Remote with attached Nunchuck controller for upper body movement, and a Wii Balance Board for lower body movement. But this configuration is not mandatory for play. A Wii Remote with Nunchuck will suffice. Play options consist of:

Singleplayer - Singleplayer action in All Star Cheer Squad comes in two varieties: Quick play and Career Mode. Career Mode on the other hand contains the lion's share of the singleplayer experience as well as the storyline of the game. As players begin this mode they choose the gender and basic customization options of their character like initial attire, facial features, etc. From there they are introduced to the current members of Fox Squad. Considered as an unproven rookie the players must try out and make the squad to gain respect and a spot on the team. If successful more advanced routines and moves as well as unique custom items will be unlocked, which will earn you credibility and provide the opportunity to move up in the hierarchy of the squad, eventually all the way to captain. Quickplay is a standard tutorial mode where players can practice basic and not so basic moves that will come in handy regardless of the player's experience and comfort level with the Wii Remote, Nunchuck and the Wii Balance Board.

Multiplayer - All Star Cheer Squad supports 2-4 players either cooperative or competitive multiplayer. Team up and work together as a unit and the goal is to get the highest overall routine score as a squad by following the on-screen prompts as you face down a bevy of AI supplied competition. As squads progress through the mode, moves routines and their synchronization with music become more and more difficult, complex and frantic. Players who instead choose to go the route of competitive multiplayer face off against friends in a versus mode where not only do they need to follow the in-game prompts, to hope to win in a tight battle they must shoot for perfect execution of moves. String together three perfect moves and your team receives a 'call out." These can be used to add points to your score, trip up the opposing cheer line when their turn comes, protect your own line in this case. Whichever team has the highest score at the end of the game wins.

Any way you choose to play it All Star Cheer Squad is an aspirational game that captures the fun and action of the real life Cheer world. Immerse yourself in the creativity, customization, style and teamwork All Star Cheer Squad. And don't forget to Bring it on!

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Amazing Game!!
Hmm, where to start...

First of all, I'm really surprised at the negative revues this game's been getting. I bought it for my niece for her birthday. Not only did she and all of her friends play it late into the night (sleepover party), but her older brother and his friend also got involved. I'll admit, I was glued to it as well. The game is fast-paced, upbeat and easy to get into. The progressive speed with which the arrow moves appear on screen keep the player on his/her toes. I have ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The Last Word on Cheerleading Games -- Ever!
I don't really agree with the other reviewers, especially the negative because the beautiful thing about ASCS is its amazing realism, incredible depth (there's hundreds of moves to be unlocked), logical learning curve (simple to start, difficult to master), and fantastic multiplayer experience. The hallmark of the Wii experience I think has always been in its ability to bring people together in a room and have fun. ASCS does this with flying colors. Even if the multiplayer aspect is not of interest ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Slowwwwww and flawed!!
We got this looking for another game that would work with the Wii Fit board! Its about to be returned!!
I agree with the other reviews - this game has some serious flaws which affect playability and general fun!
First Wii Cheer had a great idea in allowing you to use one remote in each hand to execute the moves - this game, in contrast, has you use the remote in one hand and nunchuck in the other. This idea might work if you are a child...a little child, but as the cord between the two is ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Not Impressed...selling it back
Ok, here is the thing. I am in college and love my wii, so when I saw an all star game I was so excited. I was an all star cheerleader, and I thought "how cool. What a good way to stay in shape!" However I am very very disapointed. I guess if you were a little kid or had really short arms it would be great. The game requires you to connect the numchuck to the remote to do the motions, however the cord connecting the two is so short, you can't even do the motions for real. I mean I was disapointed that I ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Got the CordLESS moves? Get `em and Cheer your squad straight to the top!
Until I got further into this game, I thought it was a real clunker. Now I'm appreciating all it has to offer. If you want to do AUTHENTIC cheerleader routines of the kind you`d be scored on in real life? This game gives it to you. The hook in this game is watching yourself actually become a better living-room cheerleader, building learned moves upon learned moves, being forced to pass practises and competition before you can go on. Warning: you may find yourself becoming quite the competitive cheerleader... ... Read More
