  1. It captures the spirit of Shrek and the world created for him, and seems to have enough of a challenge with learning to use four characters almost at once to provide gamers with something different and fun.
  2. The only downside for fans is the spoilers. If you haven’t seen this yet, you may want to step aside and wait. There are story elements in this game that you may want to wait for until you actually sit down in the auditorium.

    An amusing jaunt into the world of the movie. It doesn't require a lot of skill and there isn't a cohesive story, but I couldn't stop playing it.
  4. Not a terrible game as such - it tries to be entertaining - but it's a repetitive and technically poor use of a license. [NGC]

    This game is pretty good. Great graphics, and not to bad of game play. But It's pretty simple. If you like a challenge, then try any zelda game. Fans of shrek will enjoy. Also good for begginers and yonger kids. Expand
  3. Awesome game in co-op back then. I think it's quite embarassing to say that I 100% this game. Loved every moment and the characters were fun to play with. Don't play this game alone, it will bore you! Expand
