    i'm 7 years old and i liked it because it was challenging and funny and had lots of hard and long levels. pretty good graphics too. some potty talk but it's funny when you get used to it.

    This game was one of the farthest things from perfect, but it was so much fun. It was one of the first few coop games that managed to do so in a sense where you actually had to work together, one person couldn't beat the game on his own if the other person didn't want to help. It wasn't a shooter where one person could do all the work. It was amazing the feeling of playing this game withThis game was one of the farthest things from perfect, but it was so much fun. It was one of the first few coop games that managed to do so in a sense where you actually had to work together, one person couldn't beat the game on his own if the other person didn't want to help. It wasn't a shooter where one person could do all the work. It was amazing the feeling of playing this game with my brother, it brought us so close. We laughed so much because certain parts of the games we managed to exploit. This was before the internet so my brother and I would try everything to get glitches to work. This by far has to be one of my most played games of all time which is pretty amazing. This game earned a perfect score. Not because the graphics were good, not because the gameplay was perfect. It was just so simple and it brought my brother and I close and it was truly fun, we didn't play the game just to beat it, we didn't play it to reach a certain point, we played it for fun and that is one of the greatest feelings. Not many games can do that for me but this was one of them. The music was good, the coop was beyond fun, a great game in my memory.… Expand

    Like any great threequel, The Great Juju Challenge builds and mixes what worked in its predecessors with some additionally fresh spins of its own. It does feel the smallest and least original of the three, though.

    Hey Petah, I'm in Tak: THE GREAT JUJU CHALLENGE Petah. No but for real this game is actually really alright. Lok is voiced by the same guy voicing Joe from Family Guy. Fun fact: He also voices Flynn from Skylanders. That's about it, happy Roger Moore day #RogerMooreNFL

    Tak: The Great JuJu Challenge takes a fairly average platforming formula and puts a unique turn with it, making each level a race against the clock where speed is of the essence, but so is exploration.

    In its humor, gameplay and general accessibility, Tak: The Great Juju Challenge is a giant leap for character-based platformers. [Nov 2005, p.116]

    The game's balanced humor ensures that players won't lose interest, and the ability to jump in and out of proceedings by a second human player definitely adds an extra dimension to what's already a great adventure platform title.
