Gameplay

We Dare is marketed as a "sexy, quirky, party game" that utilizes both consoles' wand-based motion controllers (the Wii Remote or the PlayStation Move controller) to engage in sensually prankish activities such as kissing, striptease and spanking. However, reviewers have observed that the game is in fact a relatively tame party game compilation with only very mild sexual connotations.

Release and controversy

The

Pan European Game Information (PEGI) and Australian Classification Board (ACB) have drawn criticism[2][3] by implying that the game is suitable for children (despite being marketed to adults): As the boards can only classify the game content, not what the players may be doing, PEGI rated the game a 12, while the ACB gave it an even more lenient PG rating. Months later, the PG rating given in Australia was reviewed, but retained.[4]

The game's YouTube trailer has since been blocked from viewing by Ubisoft,[5] and plans for a North American localization were cancelled.[6] Ubisoft also initially decided against releasing the game in the United Kingdom, citing "[negative] public reaction",[7] but ultimately went back on this decision.

The game was released in Europe on March 14, 2011,[8] and in Australia on April 14, 2011.[1]

Music

This game includes some dancing mini-games with several songs to choose from. All the songs are cover versions. The cover versions were created by "Creative Sphere". The track list includes:

Reception

EuroGamer reviewed the game 3/10 citing it as a "poor quality collection of low-rent mini-games, most of which are badly executed rip-offs of ancient ideas".[9]
