Jul 25, 201265If you haven't played FreakyForms before, this is probably the version to get, though the few improvements aren't enough to make the extra investment worthwhile for those who already own the downloadable version.

Jan 23, 201357If you want a game that captures what Freakyforms Deluxe tries to do, you're best served hunting down the Drawn to Life games for the original DS. Kids might find the game entertaining in spite of the number of demos, but without a demo, it's hard to recommend risking the cost.

Jul 27, 201260You're not buying much of a game with Freakyforms Deluxe: Your Creations, Alive! but if you're of a creative persuasion, that shouldn't stop you from taking a closer look.

Aug 24, 201265Great for kids - to save on construction paper. [Oct 2012, p.89]
-
Nov 11, 201260It's a bland platformer filled with repetitive tasks. [Nov 2012, p.76]
-
Jul 30, 201265A simple proposal to foster creativity, especially in the younger players. An entertaining game that has jumped from the digital stores to the retail and somewhat lacks some more content.
-
Jul 31, 201270There's no denying the dungeons are a minor addition, however, so anyone who owns the original 3DSWare release may not see the value in upgrading. Everyone else, you'll need to still have that childlike sense of play and a certain ability to make your own fun – or at least some children of your own – to get the most out of this.

Aug 14, 201267If you can't get enough of creating colourful and unique creatures, you'll get the right tool with this game.

Jul 31, 201265Freakyforms comes alive only if you invest the time. Don't, and there's not much here besides sticking eyes on shapes and making them jump through hoops.
-
Jul 30, 201250The creature editor is still fun, but this is no more a video game than the first version and considerably less value for money.
-
Aug 11, 201265This game is difficult to describe. It is somewhere childish, but it's also cute. It's all about creating and exploring. It's a decent game but a little bit weird to play and understand.
-
Jul 28, 201280This enhanced version of the eShop gem is best for those who haven't already bought the predecessor. Still a great laugh regardless.

Oct 1, 201265It shows so much promise, and you'll love your first couple of hours, but it will become stale well before it should.

Nov 19, 201248Freakyforms Deluxe: Your Creations, Alive! is an admirable premise that spoils well before its implied expiration date. Creating hilarious living monstrosities out of crude odds and ends yields satisfying and impressive results, but endearment becomes tragedy when you discover there's nothing of interest to do with them. The simple act of creation might be enough for some, but I was bored to tears after that particular novelty wore off.

Aug 15, 201275Freakyforms Deluxe might be one of the most bizarre games we have played on the 3DS so far. It's a chaotic combination of silly jokes, childish graphics, platform action, weird music and your own creative mind. One moment you're saving a king with a pink, smart phone owning dinosaur and the next you'll be scrubbing the back of your own car… underwater… with a moustache. In short: this game makes absolutely no sense, yet it is brought in a way that makes it quite fun to play.

Sep 24, 201270When a game is so far outside the square in terms of creativity, it can be a dangerous dance between something ridiculous and genius. Fortunately FreakyForms Deluxe: Your Creations, Alive! falls into the almost genius category with its charming and simplistic gameplay with massive customisation options. With fun gameplay, easy controls, this is definitely the most quirky game of the year and if you're looking for something totally different, check it out!

Jul 27, 201240For four times the price of the eShop game, this is definitely not worth the investment. Stick to the original or opt for something far better for creative minds, New Art Academy.
