    The Grinch: Christmas Adventures is a fantastic and festive platforming experience. Furthermore, it is ideal for kids and lovers of Dr Seuss. Control either the Grinch or Max as you carry out a devious plan to destroy Christmas for the Whos. With easy-to-follow controls, whimsy audio, and hand-drawn imagery, this feels, sounds, and looks wonderful. Its only shortcoming is a lack of replay value.

    The Grinch: Christmas Adventures is a great holiday game to bring out and play with your kids. I love the fact that you can just have the story read after the fact and having the second player control Max the dog without fear of dying is great for those little ones who want to feel a part of the game with you. Where it lacks in feeling good as a platformer it makes up for it in delivering a fun take on a classic tradition.

    The Grinch: Christmas Adventures isn’t up to snuff. When it picks up the original Dr Seuss story and uses it for inspiration, The Grinch: Christmas Adventures is capable of the odd surprise. But those moments are exceedingly rare, and we found ourselves inexplicably stealing presents from gingerbread people and beating up nutcrackers in levels that repeated themselves until we were lulled into a grumpy stupor.
