Unfortunately, they scratched it pretty bad after only 1 week of use. But for that one week, they enjoyed it.

A Fun Game...

I think grannies can be a little tough on this game. The farting and belching is all in fun. The Game Play can be a little tough to master at first. The fact about jumping that people don't get is...
If you can jump up it, you will be able to jump in one jump. If you need to double-jump to get to a higher place, you will need to bouce off of a wall. The worlds are a lot of fun and the graphics are cool. There are plenty of fun things to find and power-ups to get. It's nice to play as a full sized Shrek. As opposed to the small, multi-player characters in Shrek 2...which is also fun, but different.

Superb Graphics!

My husband and I convinced our 12 yr old to spend her hard earned money on this thinking that with Shrek, how could we go wrong? What a waste! The movements are rather difficult to master. The screen movements made me have motion sickness. My 12 yr old doesn't even bother trying to play it anymore. I could only play for about 10 minutes or so without getting nauseated. We will definitely have to make it up to her and get her a game that she likes. We will probably never buy another game without renting it first to try it out.

This game is not dumb!

Now, right away, I would give this game no stars, if at all possible. The game has nothing to do with the original plot of Shrek, and, I believe, they just threw his character in there just to make people think, "Wow! I like Shrek. The game must have something to do with Shrek because its not like the video game company would slap the name on the cover to make me, a helpless consumer, be mislead into thinking that it does".

In the game you are of course, Shrek. The game leads you through mother goose kinds of things, and childish jokes and humor (mostly including fart jokes). They even include those things as Shrek's abilities in the game, which makes it ultimately childish. Shreks abilities are simply modeled after a small child's habits, that are most often found by children to be humorous, and hilarious.

The plot itself is not something I would search for, as on the first real level you are sent on a wild goose chase for a certain amount of candy for some ficticious character, many more as you progress in the game.

Overall, this is not a game for someone older than 4, due to all the elements that appeal to the age group. After all, you've got your dumb jokes, no organized plot, cartoon graphics, and no puzzles that could possibly take more than 60 seconds flat to solve. What else could a 4 year-old ask for?

I bought this game for my 5 year old son who loves Shrek. This game was way too difficult for him to play by himself. Shrek is just too hard to manouver and the tasks are too difficult for a child.

WILL SOMEONE PLEASE REFUND MY MONEY! YIKES!!!

Words cannot describe how bad this game is. I can't tell if it is the design of the game to not actually be able to accomplish anything other than running around farting and burping, or if something is wrong with it! What a disappointment!! PLEASE, moms and dads reading this, do not waste your money on this poorly designed, silly, horrible game. Find something your kids can actually play!!!
