Don't Look

How to Play

Hold the Wii Remote vertically.
Swing the Wii Remote up, down, left, or right to control which direction your character looks.

Everyone knows that it’s not polite to stare, and this age-old piece of etiquette is exemplified in Don’t Look, a hilarious minigame in which your goal is to glance in a different direction than the tricky arrows that appear onscreen.

Points are awarded each time you gaze in an acceptable direction—keep your eyes on the prize and win the game!

Simply wave the Wii Remote up, down, left, or right to make your character peer in the desired direction.

You get only one chance to glance, and there’s just seconds to make your decision. Each time you look in an acceptable direction, you earn one point.

Don’t get caught looking in the wrong direction or you won’t score at all!

There are ten rounds to Don’t Look, and more and more onscreen arrows will appear as the game advances. By the seventh round, there will be only one proper direction in which to peer!

Those sneaky arrows attempt to trick you by appearing on various sides of the screen; for example, an arrow that’s pointing up may appear on the screen’s bottom, messing with your head and making you think you need to look up to avoid the arrow.

Don’t pay attention to where the arrows pop up—only notice the directing in which they’re pointing. Now you’re looking good!
