Buy it, and you'll regret it. Rent it, and you'll regret it. Shrek Forever After is a cluster bomb of disappointment, and a transparently shallow attempt to cash in on the fleeting popularity of an over-hyped children's movie.
Shrek Forever After encompasses all the fatal flaws that video game tie-ins of mediocre CGI movies are notorious for. In fact, we counted no fewer than Seven Deadly Sins of Exploitative Game Design.
Shrek Forever After continues the trend of Shrek movie tie-in games that'll litter up the bargain bins for years to come. Its promises of family multiplayer fun fail to materialise, leaving this as yet another stinky movie tie-in game.
Movie licences are becoming ever more frequent on the iDevice platform, so it was no surprise to see the green ogre himself pop up in a game based on the latest (and apparently last) movie, Shrek Forever After.
If you’re a regular GameStater, you would’ve been quick to notice my regular disappointment of movie tie-in games. They are the scum of the earth and yet again, I was disappointed to receive this copy of Shrek Forever After.
