    A complete package. It combines some fine storytelling, great presentation values on every level, interesting puzzles, and great platforming to make for a fun ride that doesn't leave too soon or overstay its welcome.

    The only real concern, and unfortunately it really brings the whole thing down, is the camera work. It seems inverted (which I couldn't change) and gets caught behind things and tends to face the wrong way in annoying scenarios such as near-death. Certainly not enough of a problem to get me to dissuade you from buying it though.

    Tak: The Great JuJu Challenge takes a fairly average platforming formula and puts a unique turn with it, making each level a race against the clock where speed is of the essence, but so is exploration.

    A very thorough improvement upon its predecessors for children of all ages. Pros: Enchanting graphics, visuals, and level design, improved gameplay value, controls, and camera angles, and features that Nickelodeon gag humor that makes kids and adults laugh. Cons: It's not as graceful as better platforming titles for the PS2.… Expand

    Although the series improves with each new installment, I'm still convinced that it's gonna be a long time before it turns into a great game.… Expand
