  1. The mixture of action, stealth, and minigames will keep your attention for the game’s direction. The solid gameplay is made better because of the excellent presentation.
  2. Bottom line: Over the Hedge was fun for tweens, but better for the bottom end of the ESRB rating.

    There's no camera control/But don't be so droll/You've still got a prayer/In head-to-head multiplayer. [Aug 2006, p.91]
  4. The game is not terrible. It is just terribly familiar and lacks replay value - except for trying to play it multiple times to see how fast you can do it.
  5. 65
    Over the Hedge is entertaining enough to hold its own, and that is a victory in itself.
  6. A few unique touches are overshadowed by crushingly dull gameplay in this perfunctory animated movie tie-in.
  7. It is what it is…a fairly mediocre game aimed at being a marketing plug on a movie franchise. With those expectations it succeeds, and for a random afternoon of whack a mole with a turtle and a golf club it’s enjoyable.

    This game is awesome: high & useful double jump, co-op, unlockables, atmosphere, music, gameplay and it's based on amazing Dreamworks animatedThis game is awesome: high & useful double jump, co-op, unlockables, atmosphere, music, gameplay and it's based on amazing Dreamworks animated movie!
    It would be perfect if they could release it on Xbox 360 and PS3 (Next Gen Version) with better graphics and add NG+, whenever, Over the Hedge is really good!

    Over the Hedge – это очередная игра, которую мне было интересно проходить в детстве.
    Всего в нашем распоряжении участвуют четыре персонажа:
    - Енот Эр-Джей;
    - Черепаха Верн;
    - Белка Хэмми;
    - Скунсиха Стелла.
    При прохождении миссии, на задание можно взять только 2-х из 4-х персонажей. А сами герои вооружены двумя видами оружия — ближнего и дальнего боя. Каждый противник владеет своим определенным стилем боя, состоящим из сильных и слабых ударов.
    Во время прохождения игры мы можем собрать несколько бонусных предметов – шляпы и CD-диски, собрав которые, мы разблокируем постеры и концепт-арты из вселенной мультфильма.
    Классная игра, в которую можно поиграть и сейчас.

    Küçükken kardeşimle co op oynuyorduk. Eğlenceli ve matrak bir oyundu hatırladığım kadarıyla.
