    Unfortunately, due to the boring missions and the slow moving character and pace, I would pass on Barnyard.

    You can also incrementally upgrade your nightclub over time.

    The game is very simple, easy to play, and oddly immersive. Motion controls for the wii also work surprisingly well. I feel this game was designed with motion controls in mind.

    Parts of the game feel unfinished, and there’s no real reason to craft and recipes or collect any flowers. The game could have had more depth when it came to collectibles and giving the player a reason to participate.
