"Safeguards make any hesitation over jumping from a fair height easier to bear, and with Gummy Bears Magical Medallion, that arises through its physical environment. Hearing that a world is overrun with candy references, props and set pieces should convey a soft and unthreatening outlook -- which it in some ways does. But it isn't quite like how you would interpret its impact had this been a more developed universe. When you get right down to it, Gummy Bears Magical Medallion is incapable of escaping the consequences of its poor design ideas, with any morsels of calm seemingly offered by its environment being utterly transparent. This is very much a case of calling a spade a spade, and sadly its weak state leaves little room to say much has gone right." -- Wiiloveit.com
PixlBit | "Sometimes it's necessary in life to shake things up. The fact is, the PixlBit writers seem to have it too good, so Chessa and I (but mostly Chessa) concocted a little event for our own amusement. Rather than allow our writers to continue to cover the things they love, we've decided to force upon them the junk games that have been sitting around PixlBit HQ for ages.

Nintendo Life: The product description for Gummy Bears Magical Medallion promises a "classic adventure platformer with a Gummy Bears twist". That twist, apparently, is that the game is awful.
"Soft and chewy, consuming a handful of gummy bears is a delight to more than just children. With the right soft-and-chewy texture, they're a nice little snack to have during the day. I was kind of reminded of that as I played Gummy Bears: Magical Medallion. Besides the obvious candy relationships, the experience here can also be seen as a light snack in that it's just the right length for a child to be amused with for a short while before wanting to move on to something else. But as it turns out, the "texture" of this game is more comparable to the kinds of gummies you'd get from a generic brand -- it's what you asked for, but you can tell it's not the same." -- Wiiloveit.com
Only 47/100!? Dissappointing but I won't cancel my preorder because of a sucky review!
