Play MagazineThe character designs and architecture at work here are pure vintage Core...Special doesn't begin to tell the tale. [Apr 2002, p.46]
-
One of the best platformers in years, which oozes charm and has both enjoyment and depth to ensure youll want to play it over and over again.
-
The huge sprawling and very heavily detailed levels (which does lead to a loading issue that many people have been having) and a very ''Disney'' look accomplishes better graphics than any game that uses cel-shading.
-
A good game, a different game, a game that rewards those that stick with it with something plenty entertaining, but youre going to have to strap on a pair of blinders to get there without cringing a couple times.
-
A refreshing, original, and compelling twist on the 3D platformer, Herdy Gerdy rises above its potentially dull premise.
-
PSM MagazineFun and beautiful, with gameplay every bit as fresh as its graphics. [May 2002, p.33]
-
Levels are brilliantly designed and there's always a mass of things for you to do when you first come into a new section of the game and you can approach the various tasks in whatever order you desire to some extent.
-
A witty and pretty game that's absorbing and charming, but ultimately will bore you with its long quests and constant backtracking.
-
I found myself enjoying the game most when I would play in 30 minute or so span times. I would get to a place that would frustrate me, turn the game off and then come back later to progress.
-
TotalGames.netIts simply a big and frustrating game that will need a lot of time and effort spent on it if you want to get to the end.
-
Gameplay and graphics evolve apace, but things like choppy framerate, imprecise controls, and confusticated automatic camera direction appear to be unavoidable constants in the world of 3D videogames.
-
Think of Herdy Gerdy as being the "Moulin Rouge" of video games; some people will love it, while others won't be able to figure out why.
