    In stark contrast to its Wii counterpart, the handheld version of Despicable Me is an enjoyable experience all around. [Sept 2010, p.90]

    As a clever puzzler, Despicable Me: Minion Mayhem succeeds, but when it comes to serving its intended audience, (which is presumably, young kids) it misses the mark.

    Nice to see a tie-in game doing something slightly different. [Aug 2010, p.72]

    The thoughtful puzzles in this movie adaptation are often overshadowed by the steep challenge and troublesome controls.

    Spontaneously hopping from maddeningly difficult to mindlessly simple stages and providing a somewhat dull experience all around, Despicable Me: The Game – Minion Mayhem is largely tedious and frustrating, though with some spots of fun and imagination.

    It's frustratingly hard but well-made; easy to pick up but quickly repetitive.

    Forty stages feel more like four hundred due to slogging painfully from one to another.
