    If anything this game is nothing more than a long episode of Futurama. As a game it fails miserably. Controls are wonky, platforming is crude and flawed, levels are a bit dull and needlessly frustrating due to poor camera angles in some parts.

    But the humor is there, the art work is top notch and the cast do a fantastic job. Overall: Don't bother playing this game yourself, rather    If anything this game is nothing more than a long episode of Futurama. As a game it fails miserably.

    Don't bother playing this game yourself, rather watch someone else do it because as a game it is a pain, but as a lost episode of Futurama it's great.    … Expand

    Being from Europe, I get to play this game before most of you guys in the USA. It's really funny for starters, each character has so many catchphrases. Even the monsters are hilarious! Graphics are cool and it's not too hard to find your way around. It's not as easy as it seems however. Sure it doesn't take much knowledge but moving from one obstacle to the next can be Being from Europe, I get to play this game before most of you guys in the USA.

It's not as easy as it seems however. Sure it doesn't take much knowledge but moving from one obstacle to the next can be quite tricky and you have to be quite fast. You also get to various checkpoints but have to complete a whole level(which can take some time) before saving your game. Entertaining to say the least!!… Expand

    Even the fans of the show may want to "try-before-you-buy" because there really isn’t much to do after beating the game once.

    Not funny enough to make you want to endure an uncooperative camera, a choppy framerate, ill-conceived jumping puzzles, terrible aim in the shooting levels, and poor collision detection. [Oct 2003, p.70]

    While the gameplay may leave something to be desired, much of the talent from the TV show, be it voice, writing or otherwise, has ported over to work on the game, giving the game all the wit, humor and feel of the fantastic TV show.
