The Lord of Games (LOG) has built many worlds to determine the rightful owner of Spiral Mountain. View larger.
In Nuts & Bolts, a showdown has been set. The Lord of the Games (LOG) has arranged a duel between Banjo and the evil witch Gruntilda, aka Grunty, to decide the rightful owner of Spiral Mountain. LOG, being the creator of all video games, has built a multitude of worlds to host the challenges. Banjo must complete all the worlds to win, while Grunty tirelessly tries to stop his efforts using every method she can muster.

Build it at Mumbo's Motors
The game is loaded with vehicle options to help Banjo pilot over land, water, and air. Parts for vehicles are widely diverse, ranging from your standard engines and wheels to egg guns, floaters, and other gadgets. The Mumbo's Motors workshop makes it easy to create new vehicles. You'll collect different parts by solving puzzles and exploring worlds. Vehicle parts include a wide variety of body panels, engines, wheels, wings, propellers, fuel, and weapons, plus lots of bizarre items like Mumbo Bombos, floaters, and the versatile sticky ball that allows you to create almost anything from a simple object. Once you've finished your ride, customize your creation with a paint job and a suitable name before Banjo takes the wheel and pilots it into action.

Customize, Customize, Customize--or Just Get Down to Business
LOG's worlds are littered with hidden secrets, reward puzzles, and over 100 contraption parts that deliver an almost limitless combination of vehicle possibilities. As you work through the worlds, you'll discover more and more ways to customize and improve your contraptions, creating a surprising level of user-generated content. But even if you don't fancy yourself the greatest inventor or a highly creative craftsman, you can still have countless hours of fun with Banjo-Kazooie's pre-built vehicles. With these at your fingertips you're ready to jump in and get started, and there are plenty more contraptions available for purchase throughout the adventure using in-game currency and musical notes.

Characters, Old and New
Banjo and his best friend, Kazooie, are ready to battle for their homeland and prevent Grunty from developing it into tower blocks and malls. Other familiar faces return as well, such as Bottles, Captain Blubber, and the Jinjos, along with a vibrant cast and crew of new friends and foes. Keep your eyes peeled for Grunty's minions--look out for Trophy Thomas, Piddles, and Grunty's menacing Gruntbots: they'll do anything to prevent Banjo's success.

Nuts & Bolts offers an engaging storyline, entertaining characters, and fun gameplay options. This game offers complete single-player and multiplayer experiences--tackle LOG's worlds on your own, or play with your friends in competitive and cooperative challenges. Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts for Xbox 360 is a enjoyable, challenging game that appeals to people of all ages and types.



Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts delivers loads of customization options, interesting characters (old and new), and plenty of fun, challenging gameplay.

Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts is really a fun game and has a lot of replay value due to its lego/erector set style building system! Not to mention the great price on Amazon, make a clear winner!!


5 out of 5 stars Sounds like fun   January 8, 2009
Mary E. Duehr
We bought this as a gift for our son and it seems to be getting some heavy play so I make my assumptions from there! Not just for little kids but big kids as well as our boys are 19 and 21.


4 out of 5 stars Good ole' fashion fun   January 7, 2009
M. Fasola (Cranford, NJ USA)
Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts is a great game for families and gamers alike. In a word, its just plain fun. There's nothing too deep here in the way of story or character elements. Its more about having fun in many different types of challenges and game worlds, with an emphasis on building your own vehicles in order to conquer your current challenge or objective. Add to that some excellent bright and colorful graphics, and you have a great game overall.

Pros: Game is just FUN -- Creating your own vehicles is a blast and gives the user unlimited possibilities -- Still a decent amount of old fashioned platforming -- Great graphics -- Retains alot of the loveable traits of the old banjo games

Cons: Creating vehicles, while the interface is easy, could be pretty daunting for young kids -- If you get frustrated easily with losing and retrying challenges, you might want to steer clear -- The game overall is a tad difficult, which again could turn younger gamers off

Overall I'd definitely recommend this game to people of all ages, but I'd advise to be careful with younger children as they might find the gameplay and vehicle creator difficult. Luckily, if you are devoid of imagination or just lazy, the game throws a multitude of custom built vehicles at your that will serve just fine in all of the challenges. Add to this that the game is cheaper than most, and its a must buy!




4 out of 5 stars good clean fun   January 7, 2009

I bought this game for my son and have found myself playing it as much as he is. There are times when he gets stuck, not knowing enough about different vehicles, but with a little explaining he makes it through.


3 out of 5 stars Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts O.K. game. Good seller.   January 6, 2009

I bought this game for my daughter and she liked it at first, but got bored with it pretty quick due to the repetition of the game. The seller was fast though.
