70Although it is in every way a simplistic take on often-recycled game concepts and mechanics, Where the Wild Things Are is still an enjoyable platform adventure that will keep many players - children and adults alike - interested until the end.
-
64The whole thing just feels bare. Oh, and that plot is a little over the top and just plain zany, although that's more of a subjective thing. I guess it just needed more in the way of substance, you know?
-
60Although the platforming isn't bad, the lack of replay value and small visual problems take away from the overall adventure. However, if you've got kids or you're a fan of Spike Jonze's film, you might be up for some Rumpus.

Where the Wild Things Are is basically Prince of Persia in footie pajamas. [Jan 2010, p.85]
-
56Not terrible, but it's pretty boring and short. [Issue#188, p.83]
-
47Considering the fact that Where the Wild Things Are offers nothing in the way of exciting platforming or combat, and it doesn't even run all that well, I'd avoid this one altogether.
-
There is just so little content and the levels are so repetitive that Wild Things spends its cache of charm in the first few minutes, and once its gone, you'll be left asking yourself one question: When did the Wild Rumpus get so boring?
-
Where the Wild Things Are is a great book and movie, but it's also a dull video game. The people at Griptonite Games do not seem to put much effort in making our childhood hero Max' adventure an epic one. This is all kinds of ugly, repetitive and boring.
