GamePro

The Xbox LIVE Vision Camera, used for many of the games, is a complete bust (surprise!) forcing players to rely on a sometimes baffling controller scheme.

Team Xbox

The microgames that are genuinely entertaining are few and far between, and, due to their nature, over far too quickly.

Eurogamer

As a whole the game feels undercooked, unpolished and ultimately unsatisfying.

Console Gameworld

While the game is fun in spots, Rocky and Bullwinkle is a wasted opportunity.

X360 Magazine UK

The moose and the squirrel join a handful of friends to push buttons in the right order. [Issue#33, p.117]

Cheat Code Central

Not nearly enough craftsmanship went into the creation of the title and the end result is a meager offering.

Games Radar (in-house)

The game’s characters look like poorly-drawn imitations of the classic cartoons, feeling like cheap flash games than any sort of licensed imagery.

GameSpot

What do you get when you mix a 50-year-old animated franchise with 21st-century downloadable games? A poor microgame collection.

Giant Bomb

A game with no originality and not much excitement, either.

Official Xbox Magazine

Keying on the show's rudimentary (and universally derided) animation instead of its wonderful writing and goofy humor demonstrates an atrocious error in judgment. [May 2008, p.76]

Planet Xbox 360

What at first sounds like 'fun for the whole family' turns out to be a bad case of 'fun for nobody.' Rocky And Bullwinkle is an unfortunate case of a good license slapped on a terrible excuse for a game.

IGN

Zen Studios didn’t spend much time or money on Rocky & Bullwinkle, so why should you?

Official Xbox Magazine UK

Zany, but this price is just ridiculous. [June 2008, p.79]

Xbox World 360 Magazine UK

Over 100 minigames, none of them as good as the "Wario" equivalents. [July 2008, p.96]

GameDaily

Rocky and Bullwinkle is an under-developed, under-performing mess of a game, a Flash-based experiment in pure tedium.

If you don't have the resources to do something like Rocky and Bullwinkle justice, don't bother making a game at all.
