As for the ambiance of the game, the environment is only so
- so. The atmosphere and landscape are quite cartoon-ish. This style does
appeal to some folks, in particular the E demographic that the game is shooting
for. I can appreciate a colorful cartoon-ish backdrop as well as anyone, but I
do expect the graphics to be better than is the case here. This is particularly
true with the uninventive bosses and enemies. The main protaganist characters
are somewhat better but not by much.
The long and short of this game is that it is an easy game
for your kids to play and an adult might want to sneak a session in hear and
there. The game misfires, however in doing anything even remotely unique or
creative, even if you take into account that it is a title geared toward the E
audience. The fact that the game is a little to easy and is not conducive to
every age group in the house hold having a good time together, severely cuts
down on its replay value.
D-
A game that is a little more fun to play than it sounds simply due to the easy and fun game play. Unfortunately the graphics and story are weak. Also the same easy game play that makes it fun also makes this title quickly find its way to the bottom of your entertainment center drawer.
