    this game is just so fun to play, this is the game that makes my childhood feel blessed. Amazing music, cool combat system, and an unforgettable adventure through outstanding environments and levels, I constantly find myself replaying this game over and over again. Its a shame I don't really see it get the credit that it deserves, because THQ did a great job with this game.

    This game is Epic! There's just so many things to do and the multiplayer is also stellar. Other than that not much else to say, really liked the game when i was a kid and I still do. I recommend this game to anybody!

    Once again the "critics" are **** wrong. This game is easily the most underrated gamecube game of all time. Never is it on top 10's, or talked about much. It has great characters and voice actors, great gameplay, gorgeous environments, and a killer soundtrack. The story is solid and it keeps you intrigued, and in my opinion the games greatest strength is the mood is creates for the player.Once again the "critics" are **** wrong.

The Tak world is mysterious and interesting, the music is intriguing, and the gameplay flows beautifully. This game was made by thq, who also made sponebob battle for bikini bottom another great classic. It's a shame they weren't given more games to create as they have proven to be able to make quality games. This game is a great one to look at in terms of how to make a good game. As far as I'm concerned, it's the blueprint of level design, and how to make a solid game in general.… Expand

    One of the best platform offerings to hit these systems in a while, plus a quality children's game for which the competition is extremely limited.

    If you liked the original game, you'll love Tak 2: The Staff of Dreams. Not only is it bigger, better and more beautiful but it's also one of those games that will win you over with its charming story and characters plus its too-fun-to-put-down platformer goodness.

    Kids will undoubtedly like Tak 2's intuitive control mechanics and colorful characters while adults will -- as we did -- be able to appreciate the underlying humor and the clever puzzles that lie in wait.
