    A great game I like it a little better than Crash.

    Pros: Sweet graphics, visuals, and overall "old school" platforming. Cons: A little too "old school", being more cliche than original, bad controls and camera angles.

    It fell a bit flat. It's above decent, but it really doesn't stick out when compared to other collectathon games, such as Crash Bandicoot, Spyro and heck, even the controversial Super Mario Sunshine.

    This is a pretty good platformer. The only problems I have with it are the camera at times, the physics also at times, and some missions can be a little annoying. Otherwise, this is a great game. Great platforming, solid controls and a good story. Definitely a classic.

    The variety in its environments is quite high, and the large number of mission objectives will certainly challenge you for countless hours. However, the overall level of difficulty isn't that high. [Nov 2002, p.46]

    And play through you will as the repetitive nature of the game offers very little challenge despite the inclusion of boss battles, secret areas and herding puzzles. At one point you will have to guide a giant lobster into a cave and seal it with falling stalactites.

    A very standard platform game marred by a wonky camera.
