“Race to the finish line with a super star lineup of your favorite DreamWorks Animation characters from Shrek, Madagascar, How To Train Your Dragon and Monsters vs. Aliens! Speed, jump, power-up and boost as you navigate wacky, wild and wondrous kart courses and battle to capture the checkered flag.”
My son drove through New York City, to Shrek’s swamp and to the Dragon’s Island of Berk. He was Bob from Monsters vs. Aliens, he chose Shrek over Donkey, and Hiccup from How to Train Your Dragon. Having see all these movies made it quite fun for my son to play with this game. And, each character has their own special moves and unique abilities which adds to the thrill!
He collected power ups, something that brings out the competitiveness in him.
And basically he just loves anything with driving. He wants to be an adult but he is 8 1/2. In the world of video games he can be quite the driver and the various terrains with the characters that he knows and loves, was “quite awesome” as he put it! We live in NYC and are familiar with the habitat surrounding the Madagascar animals home, the Central Park Zoo! We enjoy the other geographies that we have seen in the movies, especially Shrek’s swamp environs!
Again, the familiarity of the characters serves to add another dimension to the fun. The kids love the idea of portraying these characters. Having video games with the characters you have seen in the movies and TV makes for great role play, at least for us, we enjoy playing the characters that we loved on the big screen!
This is available on all platforms, with battle modes available for the Xbox, PS3, and Wii. Championship mode is available for the DS.
