DarkZero
It is a bit of a waste of the Wii?s capabilities though, and if you have a DS it may be worth picking up that version as it seems much more suited to a handheld.

It's harmless, but hardly worth bothering with. [May 2008, p.74]

Console Monster
It is quite a poor game, mainly due to the longevity though being a budget title ? I wasn?t expecting a masterpiece.

Jolt Online Gaming UK
George of the Jungle is basic at its best and irritatingly flawed at its worst, relying almost entirely on its license to sell to an audience perhaps unaware of the genre?s past glories.

George of the Jungle is a poor effort that, while looking fairly good and staying true to the style of the TV show, features derivative, repetitive gameplay, coupled with such poor controls and such a ridiculously high difficulty that it's rendered almost unplayable.

Gamestyle
The 2.5D graphics are quite nice and it captures the character and environment well, but overall we can only really recommend this to parents who want to shut their kids up for five minutes.

It's not funny and it's not fun to play. If the developers had simply fine tuned the collision detection it probably would have been fine.

Cheat Code Central
A stupid game that's designed to trick parents into picking this up for their young children. Even if you're one such parent buyer, please do not buy this for your kids.
