My Take on the Game
I had the opportunity to try this out and after playing a number of the levels I have to say that I am impressed with how well the makers have created characters that relate well to the cartoon itself. The game is Gauntlet like, though there is a true lacking multiplayer function mode (which is something I guess I would have initially expected). Graphics and sound in my perspective were probably the best parts of the game, however there is a 16 bit feel to the game too that from outside feels just right. Though this is definitely a strong point for game fanatics, the makers to miss some other marks when it comes to 16 bit graphics though. You also can switch out which character you would like to be as each has their own talents, powers, strengths and weaknesses. You have to be able to identify what all of these are as you move through the game to best be able to use the characters to the best of your ability. All-in-all I enjoyed myself, though there were some draw backs that I would have liked to have been fixed.
