    Obviously made for the preconception-to-eight-year-old age range, Going Quackers is the perfect game for the Dreamcast-owning youngster.

    It's easy, it's simple, it looks good, and it's fun!

    A light and fluffy offering that's just right for kids, albeit a bit too shallow for more mature gamers looking for a challenge.

    The simple gameplay and easy stages could easily entertain a child and keep him/her busy for hours, but an experienced adult gamer should easily be able to breeze through this game.

    A solid--albeit brief--game. However, because of the game's flaws, it makes a prime rental candidate.

    You'd probably have more fun dusting off your old Genesis or SNES system and popping in "Castle Of Illusion." You'll get the exact same gameplay as DDGC, without all the added disappointment.

    The DC version of this graphically intensive platform adventure is sometimes fun but gets very old very quickly.

Whilst not going to blow anyone away, the game has responsive control, a decent difficulty curve, and is vibrant and fun to play. The linear platforming style popularised by Crash Bandicoot on the PSOne works well here. Admittedly it only took me 4 hours to complete, collecting everything and doing the time trials; but I'm a man nearing 30 who's been gaming since he could pick up a controller, I'm hardly the target audience. If anything, the fact that I finished this relatively easy game is a credit to the games art direction and level design as I enjoyed it completely.… Full Review »
