Product Description

Product Description

Video game adaptations of big movies, particularly kid’s movies, tend to get a lot of flak from more hardcore gamers – and not without some justification. Not offering anything original in terms of gameplay is one thing but they’re usually quite shoddily made and with little real connection to the movie they’re supposed to be based on. Shrek The Third won’t be winning any video game awards for innovation but it does at least look and sound like the film and is unlikely to disappoint anyone who simply wants to relive it from the comfort of their own joypad.

In predictable fashion the game is a third person action adventure in which you get to control Shrek, Donkey, Puss in Boots, Princess Fiona, Arthur and Sleeping Beauty. Each has their own subtle differences, from Puss n’ Boot’s double jump to Sleeping Beauty’s guide ability, but combat always comes down to just mashing the attack button as rapidly as possible. Everyone also has their own special move as well, from Fiona’s flying kick to Puss n’ Boot’s "cute puss" move.

Another inevitable aspect of the game is a series of mini-games, but most are actually quite good, particularly Castle Capture where you have to smash down an opponent’s walls and Ships Ahoy where you have to defend a beach from invading pirates. All can be played with a friend outside the game, which is more than can be said of the main story mode which is sadly single player only. The graphics are decent though and everyone looks like their movie selves, even if the celebrity impersonators don’t sound like them. As a video game it’s a fairly average affair all round, but as a marketing tie-in it succeeds with flying colours.

3.0 out of 5 stars Great for a 4 year old 22 Oct 2007
By Kate Walker
Platform for Display:Nintendo Wii
Fun: 4.0 out of 5 stars   
I have a four year old son who is still mastering the controls of the Wii. The usual games that you can get for practising the Wii have boring graphics and he can't relate to them. However, with Shrek he totally loved playing it because the contols were easy and he loved being the knight and waving his sword around. If you are looking to get this for a teenager or adult then the other comments are correct. However, if you are wanting this as something you can play together with a toddler (my son enjoyed holding the controler and I held the Nunchuck for stearing) then I found it perfect. I haven't found a four year old that doesn't like Shrek and some of the jokes in it can be shared with all ages. I think that the voices are fine and do sound like the originals, especially Donkey. My son particularly enjoyed the fact that you are not always playing the same character. It was also nice to enjoy a game where we didn't have to download a walkthrough because it was easy enough to play without one!

5.0 out of 5 stars Shrek game 21 Sep 2009

Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   
Good fun. Could be a little difficult for younger kids. Some bits can be a bit difficult for an adult! All in all, a good buy.

3.0 out of 5 stars A little disapointed 18 April 2013
By JannieD

Although I haven't played this much yet, it was purchased for my 4yr old son, but having to use both controls just doesn't work so we've gone back to Mario instead.
