Great game with the worst gameplay ever

I played a lot of games for more than a decade. I think I tried everything, from strategy to 3D shooters, quests and arcades. I can't say I am a bad player as I usually finish each game a lot of times. Why I am saying all this? Because I don't want you to think that I can't play this game because I am a bad player.

The fact is - this game is perfect as perfect is the movie - perfect humour, good graphics, music, everything but gameplay.

Camera is always flying by itself, you don't control it, and usually you don't see what you want to see, sometimes you don't see anything! You don't go where you are supposed to go, you don't do what you are supposed to do - just because camera shifted to wrong direction, and voila, you busted! So the gameplay is stupid, as stupid is the programmer who created it. In fact, I don't remember worse gameplay than this, maybe because I am usually playing "adult" games like Doom or Warcraft and alike. That, from $5x category.

So if you want to laugh, get this game, it is the same fun as the movie itself, but be prepared to a lot of bad words caused by bad programming - so it is better to play when your kid is not home. And watching your kid playing this game you can find out all bad words he knows, I think this is interesting too.

I would rate this game 5, if programmers who make the camera stuff wouldn't be drunk while writing this perfection. A great game if it costs $5.

Also a little note about words in this game - depending from how you care about your kid, be prepared for phrases like "what the duck?" and "I hope my girl remembers me" (said by sailors) and alike. Maybe it's just too rude for your perfect little child :)

this game is horrible because it barely works. My comp. had everything thats required to play it and it will only let u play it for 2 min. and then shuts off. Don't buy this buy the game boy one instead.

Fun

A fun yet challendging game. I enjoy it very much. I haven't seen the movie but I'm guessing it's good cause the game is. I would still rather see Star Wars Eposode III revendge of the sith, but who cares

Great beginning, but end was not as much fun!!

I really enjoyed this game!!! I thought that when you got to earn differnt skills was GREAT!! Also being able to play many different characters made it fun!!

The different side games were also fun to play!!

The only bad thing about this game was the ending I think!! The ending was very challenging and very frustrating!!

The story moved along nicely and was a good length!
This is a great game if you like some frustrating times! It had good graphics!

Another thing there are a few times in this game where they use bad lauguage! I know for certain that they aren't really bad words just...nothing too bad.

I think that it is worth the price!! It only had 4 different save game slots... so there can only be 4 save games!!

A great game but you will kinda lose interest!

A good game for kids

The good things about this game it is challenging but not too
challenging. It has all the characters from the movie and it has
Arcade machines that are hidden in 3 levels. The bad things about this game is that it has bad graphics. You lose interest
the day you finish the game and don't want to play again. Overall the game is okay.

Best thing ever made!

I have read all the reviews about this and so I thought this game was going to work out for a kid like me.So I bought this.The controls are a little junky but who cares about the controls when you can still play this.The bad things about the controls is that some of them are on the mouse and some are on the keyboard. For instance, the attack button and talk button are on the mouse,and the jump control is on the keyboard,the special button is the c key, and the move keys are w,s,d,and,a or the arrow keys.The only other bad thing is that you sometimes can not point your animal in the direction you want him/her in. I cannot imagine anyone not wanting this game.One very good thing about this game is that you can play minigames on this.This includes tiki minigolf,shuffleboard,and lemur rave. Tiki minigolf can be a little hard.You can play with the very crafty penguins,Marty the zebra,Alex the lion,Melman the giraffe,and Gloria the hippo.This is definitely a game I would recommend. P.S. you have to purchase minigames at the zoovanier shop.

Good game

Good game, but not the easiest to master controls for young children. Lots of laughs!

Lots of fun
