Roughly two-and-a -alf years since the show’s premier in 2010, WayForward, along with Pendleton Ward as the creative consultant developed the DS and 3DS title Adventure Time: Hey Ice King! Why’d You Steal Our Garbage?! Given that this is a show for the younger audience and how titles based on shows such as this don’t normally hold the same high standards such as games like Dishonored and Skyrim, the thought that this would be another half-arsed attempt had crossed my mind. But the Adventure Time fan in me had high hopes."

"If you are anything like me, you have wanted to play a decent Adventure Time game for a very long time. Unfortunately for all of us, we have yet to experience a title that truly encapsulates the franchise. I feel that the time for change has come and that a worthy game should be made and I have just the recipe for it!
Keep in mind, this editorial dives deep into Adventure Time lore, if you are afraid of any spoilers, please click away!"
I havent dived into the show as much, but eventually I'll jump into it a bit more.
The Batman: Arkham series are fantastic licensed games. They just so happens to be joined by some other great ones.
The Hub World writes: Adventure Time: Hey Ice King? Why’d You Steal Our Garbage?!! (man, that’s a mouthful) has a similar play style to Zelda II: The Adventure of Link. As a matter of fact, it is almost identical. You walk around the hub world (which is the Land of Ooo) in order to enter various towns, forests and other locations, in which you are put into a 2D side scrolling setting where you must travel and defeat enemies. Occasionally, you will also bump into enemies in the hub, which will put you into a small battle against multiple enemies for a reward. Altogether, the gameplay is quite solid and fluid, but it can get quite tedious as the game progresses.
Sounds like a cute game, but it's hard to go wrong with WayForward.
If I ever play my 3DS again ill keep this in mind.
