by Digital Illusions CE, TDK Mediactive
Genres:Platform, Puzzle

Story:Taking place after the 3D animated movie of the same name, the game allows the player to control Shrek, a huge green ogre, as he must rescue Princess Fiona from the evil wizard Merlin while finding his way through worlds full of crazy twists on familiar fairy tale characters. In this third-person action platformer, Shrek bashes and burps his way past various challenges, fighting creatures and collecting items to complete Good Deeds and unlock new levels. Each world features six missions to complete save for Merlin's castle and two of the missions in every regular level involve either collecting hidden Easter Eggs or grabbing the evil fairies who run away as you approach. Other missions in a stage can involve tasks like defeating a boss or transporting characters to their destinations.Show more

We grabbed this game from a bargain bin on the day we brought home our Xbox and were expecting disappointing shovelware: Not at all. We had so much fun with this game, and are still quoting lines from it to this day. It's a game that looked at the original movie, saw its humour and the neat spins it gave to fairytales and really took it to heart. There is a LOT of heart and energy put into this game. The controls really keep shrek being an ogre in mind (you can grab, fart and burp) but are dropping him into mostly bright nursery rhyme and fairytale environments, creating a great contrast. The game rewards you for exploring each world, too. While the controls could be a tad floaty, it almost added to it? It suited Shrek. I'd love to play this again, the writers' freedom shined through to me as a kid so I bet I'd appreciate it on another level now
