Summary

Dexter has created the ultimate invention - The Clone-a-matic - but his older sister Dee Dee has meddled again and accidentally cloned herself. And, there's not just one of her. Dexter's Laboratory is infested with mini-Dee Dee's bent on destroying Dexter's wonderful experiments - what a nightmare! It's up to players to help Dexter catch the Dee Dee's, put his lab back to normal, and get Dee Dee back to her single self before Mom calls for dinner. [BAM! Entertainment]

The best thing by far about the game is how much Bam! has captured Dexter's world for the game.

Hot Games

A basic, solid, hardworking title, with just enough familiar territory to keep fans of the show happy, and enough work to keep persistent (albeit young) gamers satisfied.

Game Over Online

While the game lacks visual flair and can become a little repetitive in the later stages, fans of the show, particularly younger gamers, are sure to enjoy the familiar theme, characters and wackiness.

I was a little disappointed that there weren't more crazy inventions to use.

Pocket Games

When you move Dexter around, it's far too common to simply fall off of cliffs or get caught in electricity fields - even though you were clearly safely away from the offending obstacle. [Winter 2001, p.48]

Unfortunately once the game starts the fun ends.

J.P. gave it a 7:
Graphics are all good, and I did enjoy playing it. The game captures the Dexter atmosphere so well. The gameplay is not very challenging and once I reached the end of the game, I didn't feel like doing it all over. But overall it's a nice platformgame, that will especially attract the fans.
