    10/10 will play again. I did not have a Metacritic account but when I played this work of art I knew I had to share how much I enjoyed this amazing adventure with the world. When I found this masterpiece while searching through Amazon I knew I had to have it. I asked for Cory in the House for Christmas for two years before I got my hands on it.

When I found this masterpiece while searching through Amazon I knew I had to have it. I asked for Cory in the House for Christmas for two years before I got my hands on it. As soon as I got it I popped it into my DS and began the wonderful adventure. The characters were beautifully designed, enemies were creative and the plot was captivating. Even the faces for the dialog were amazing and really helped portray the characters emotions. The special items that you find while on your amazing journey, while they may seem useless, help you defeat the final bosses in very creative and thought provoking ways. When I got to the end of the adventure I began to cry over the fact that the amazing ride I had been on was over. As the credits began to roll so did my tears. I began the amazing adventure called Cory in the House again and I'm looking forward to experiencing the wonderful ride that is Cory in the House for the Nintendo DS. I have stayed up until three and four in the morning just playing Cory in the House. The only real issue I have with this work of art is that there is no sequel and if one is ever released, which I'm really hoping there is, you can put your money on the fact that I will be first in line to get my hands on it. Do not listen to the negative reviews that will tell you that the graphics are poor as well as the plot. As a person who has had minimal access to the show I can assure you that you are making a great investment when you purchase this masterpiece. To summarize, this game is a work of art and if you are an EPIC GAMER you had a duty to play this game. Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Cory in the House is clearly one of the greatest video games. The controls are amazing, the characters are extremely relatable, and the music is the greatest for a DS game ever. The story is one of the best ever made, because it involves Cory living in the White House with his father Victor Baxter after he gets accepted in the White House. Cory wins a toy contest and starts selling bobbleheads designed after the President to the people of Washington, D.C. An evil toy maker finds the bobbleheads and starts using them as hypnosis technology on the citizens of Washington, D.C. Cory needs to get the bobbleheads so that he can stop the citizens from being hypnotized. The stealth scenes in the game rival Quake, Doom, and Duke Nukem 3D. Some of the challenges involve sneaking past Secret Service agents, looking in rooms for items, throwing pastries at teachers who are hypnotized by Cory's greatness, and talking to several NPCs. You can also play minigames, which are even better than the ones in WarioWare, Super Mario 64 DS, and New Super Mario Bros. Overall, Cory in the House is the best DS game ever made. I pity the fool who rates this red. I highly suggest you play the game and watch the first season and the first 3 episodes of the second season, because the quality starts to dip after the beginning of the second season. Cory in the House is one of the greatest video games, and the show is the greatest anime of all time. Expand

It is so real that even games in 2019 cannot hold a candle to this. You look at baby games like fortnite and you see that Cory in the house destroys it in every aspect. Even knack.

First of all the graphics. It is so real that even games in 2019 cannot hold a candle to this. You look at baby games like fortnite and you see that Cory in the house destroys it in every aspect. Even knack. Which earns a 10/5 for just the graphics looks like a baby drew it compared to Cory in the house. This game has such legendary graphics that you can see every detail like real life. Its really what this is all about. Second we have the characters.now you see a game like octopath traveller and you see that it only has I characters. Then you see Pokemon with over 800. And even that is puny. Cory and his friend who is black in the conversations and white in the real game are so deep. You really feel like a metal gear solid when you speak around the white house. 9/2
    Third of all we have controls. If you see somthing like Pokemon you see that it controls so badly. You can't even move your Pokemon in battle. Cory controls so well you can't go back to playing on the Nintendo 64. Its so effortless. You really FEEL like a chubby 10 year old. Finally we have the music. The best part. Zelda games sound like trash compared to what Cory produces. Unlike most games. Cory takes things a step further and adds a laugh track to make you FEEL like a Cory in The house

    Overall if you don't like this game you are just nitpicking and biased. And I win.

    99/10 it's a little somthing for everyone

Even calling the game art is an insult, for this is a masterwork only seen once at least every ten generations. While I have not played the game, I have laid eyes on it. What is so incredible about this immersive wonder is that this is the greatest creation known to man even when not experienced to its fullest extent. In fact, Cory in the House is so wildly beyond anything else ever devised by everything else in the universe that even experiencing a tenth of a tenth of a percent puts masterworks such as the Mona Lisa to shame. Even the box art has an allure great Renaissance masters could only wish to achieve. I have stared at this box art for hours at a time, sometimes devoting a whole afternoon or even an entire day to examining and taking in every minute detail. Every time I do so, I still find something new and take away deep meanings. Cory in the House has truly changed my life, and to reiterate, this life-changing triumph has managed to do so without me even having played the game; however, I have seen the game played.

    I cried. I cried and I cried and I cried. I was simply in disbelief when I saw the game. Sometimes, when you see and/or experience something magnificent, your only instinct is to cry. I have teared up when viewing moving works of art. I have sometimes cried. Cory in the House has made me cry more than anything I have ever experienced. I was simply blown away by the majesty of it all. To preface this, we live in a time of rapid technological growth. Immersion in media has been put in higher regard, particularly with virtual reality, placing users right into the world. I have tried virtual reality devices myself, and they truly are incredible; however, simply viewing Cory in the House was a different experience entirely. This was a step beyond virtual reality, because Cory in the House captured reality. I was so deeply immersed in what I was seeing I swore that I was actually there. I not only felt a connection with Cory Baxter, for I felt I was one with Cory. I had this experience by simply viewing the game, and I cannot even fathom what it must be like for those who have played it. When I eventually do play it, I know that will be a moment of pure transcendence and enlightenment, for I will finally experience a step beyond reality. We have virtual reality, but Cory in the House is so wildly ahead of its time and even our time that the game could be classified as ’neo reality.’

    Saying Cory in the House is ‘special’ would be an insult, as that moniker has been delivered many a time to various works. Categorizing this work with anything else insults the pure magic of the game. The game is truly in a class all its own, for it is a class without compare. The English language does not contain enough words, phrases, combinations of words, or even enough letters or symbols to convey the utter brilliance of Cory in the House. In fact, no language anywhere, in any universe, could achieve such a feat. Many masters and geniuses have tried to achieve perfection. No being has managed to do it. Of course, this seems preposterous, especially given that people worked on Cory in the House, but my point here goes along with the game being in a league of its own. Many things are close to perfect, though nothing truly is, but Cory in the House stands above as the step beyond perfect. Something without fault is perfect, but Cory in the House is inexplicably beyond by not only being without fault but being incapable of fault. As such, it is my personal opinion that ‘Cory in the House’ should be a new term referring to that which is beyond perfect. This term seems exclusive, and this is true, for I know nothing can possibly ever reach this achievement again.

    I have not played Cory in the House, and I fully regret not doing so. I will eventually play this masterwork for myself, and the day I finally get the complete and total privilege of inserting the cartridge into my Nintendo DS will be a day without compare, for I will finally know what neo reality has to offer. I will shed tears as I never have before. The moment I finally play the game will be the single greatest moment of my lifetime. Cory in the House is truly the greatest achievement in all of history and beyond. Saying this wondrous triumph is a masterpiece completely undersells it, for there is only one true way to classify Cory in the House. Cory in the House is Cory in the House.

    This game makes you feel like you're Cory In The House

    Honestly this game is the best ever. Lootboxes, skins, dlc and microtransactions can not be found in this game.

    This game is a loveletter to games such as the Bible (made by Albert Einstein(co-made by god(Engine provided by Cory himself))) and completely captures the style of first person rpg tactical on rails shooter

When I got my hands on this masterpiece, I thought it wouldn't live up to it's name, since the anime was one of the best things to ever air on T.V. Much to my surprise, the game was fantastic! Breathtaking, beautiful rich story, superb graphics, it almost seemed like I was there, with Cory, and with sound quality never heard before on handheld consoles. This is hands-down number 1 on my top 11 games of all time! It tears my heart to see such an amazing game never get a sequel, or an HD remake or a HD remaster, or DLC, I would love to replay it on the Xbox Series X. It's a shame. Oh well, ∞/10. This is a must, for DS enthusiasts or fans of the show, I can recommend this to everyone, be it young, old, white, black, christian, muslim, male, female, straight, gay, mentally unstable, it doesn't matter! Go buy it right you stupid moron! Thanks Nintendo and Disney for this amazing game! like I mean it, games like this are truly a once in a lifetime experience. On the surface it may look like just another licensed but if you give it the time you will find it is so much more. From the beautiful graphics that put Red Dead Redemption 2 to shame to the fully orchestrated soundtrack created from unreleased Mozart, Tchaikovsky and Giuseppe Verdi scores, it truly pushes the hardware (and your soul) to its limits!!! I wont go in to deeply about the story as I do not wish to spoil it but the climax of the Weed Party arc left me in tears, something that modern garbage games have failed to do. The gameplay is hard to describe since there was nothing like it before and the many imposters that came after have completely failed to capture its EPICness. It's truly something that can only be experienced for yourself rather than described. In conclusion, it will make you laugh, it will make you cry and you will remember this game for the rest of your life. You know this reminds me of a story... "My family have always hated me. that was until my very bisexual cousin threw this game at me that he found in a moose. The dead moose made me sooooo hard A.K.A. bonerfied. Today I'm sadly finishing the game and I can hear a noise coming from my bed. CORY! He slowly walks up to me and grabs my anus. He strips me and slowly inserts his peepee in my booty. My face shivers with pleasure as his peepee rips through me and blood falls all over the floor, his big hand slaps my ass and makes a nice deep sound. He then pulls my balls as he tells me to say "Every copy of Cory in the House is personalized" and i do what he says to please my master as much as possible. He then rubs my nipples and pulls on my penis. He finally finishes by roughly, but bonerifically throwing me across the room, sending me on my back sitting. HE penetrates me once more as my family walks in then looks at them all saying "EVERY COPY OF CORY IN THE HOUSE IS PERSONALIZED" then throws his body out the window never to be seen again. After i sadly go to bed knowing CORY RAPED ME i pull from under a note saying "EVERY COPY OF CORY IN THE HOUSE IS PERSONALIZED"." If you've never played this game before you don't deserve to be called a gaymer. You owe it to yourself and to humanity to play it! Anyways, Rarely does a work art so groundbreaking and fr*cking EPIC in scale exhibit such a visceral, searing arc of human pathos. When I first started playing and watching the cutscenes, I was like, "this is confusion!" But then, later on after watching video essays of the game's story, it finally hits you: One of the main antagonists! The Troll King, commonly known as King Troll who is based on a real 20th century occultist. He spends most of his time in the background of the story, often making decisions that will allow his mysterious plan to come closer to fruition. We don't find out much about him in the the first arcs of the game which is why in the later half we see him shine as a character. He is one of the most interesting and well written characters in fiction. Antagonists or villains are defined by their motives. Why are they 'bad'? What is their goal? Are they even evil in the first place? What truly is evil? Are we all evil? Villains can come under many stereotypes due to this: a pure evil person who wants nothing but world destruction or to accomplish something morally unjust, a person turned 'evil' due to circumstance, a person who is not evil but has ideals or beliefs that conflict with the protagonist's, or a person who wants to do something bad but in the end wants to achieve something good by doing so. Surely the Troll King is a 'bad person', he is responsible for the many inhuman experiments during the story of the game. But why is the Troll King like this in the first place? What does he hope to achieve in the end? What kind of villain is the Troll King? The Troll King still has a very human personality despite his appearance, as... Expand

    Meming aside, this is actually a really well done DS-era tie in game. I’ve played far worse, and it would definitely be enjoyable for a kid (or adult) who enjoys the show. Given the task of developing a DS Cory in the House game for kids, I’m honestly doubtful they could’ve done much better than this. It’s earned the 10, no doubt.

    The game has some of the clunkiest controls we've seen, the presentation is insultingly stupid, the minigames are hardly games at all, and on top of everything it's really short.
