As there have been many films adaptations thus far in video gaming-and most of them have never failed to disappoint to some degree-I shouldn't be surprised by this particular title's shortcomings. However, with a cast including Bruce Campbell and a solid movie to draw from, I hoped for more.
-
This 3D adventure game does expand on the movie's story, but it's also uninteresting and repetitive.
-
It’s simply another in a long line of cookie cutter games that won’t really add anything to your collection.

Official Playstation 2 Magazine UKAll too familiar platforming action spoiled further by oversimplified, unpredictable controls and utterly dreary objectives. [Sept 2006, p.95]

Play UKUnresponsive controls and a twitchy camera, however, are a little harder to swallow and when added to the sheer monotony of the experience, you just end up with [a] weak title. [Issue 143, p.94]
-
The gameplay is repetitive and there's hardly any support from the cast of the film.
-
The twitchy movement makes it unnecessarily difficult to target enemies with your primitive ant weapons (a lock-on button turns out to be little help) and it's all too easy to fall when carefully crawling up walls.
-
The Ant Bully isn't wholly shameless about setting the bar low, and kids are bound to get at least a little joy from its small world, but this colony is just too repetitive and dull to be fun for long.
