superbly creative puzzles and crazy characters with unique abilities. How is this movie tie-in game from the 2000s so much better than 90% of games nowadays? This paid perfect tribute to the film while giving so much more.

Review of Shrek 2: The Game (PC) – A Short but Fun Nostalgic Ride: Shrek 2: The Game brings back the classic Shrek humor and charm, offering simple, kid-friendly platforming and combat. The ability to switch between characters like Shrek, Donkey, and Puss in Boots keeps the gameplay feeling fresh. However, the game is disappointingly short, easily beaten in under two hours, and suffers from bland, repetitive combat and basic platforming. While the Gingerbread Man’s sections are a highlight, they’re far too brief—imagine how much more fun it would be with a full destruction rampage, smashing buildings in Far Far Away like in Hulk: Ultimate Destruction! The game misses out on this potential, as well as on destructible environments and engaging mini-games or side content, which made similar titles like Over the Hedge so memorable. Shrek 2 could have benefited from more mayhem, destructible cityscapes, and fun distractions like Knight Bowling or Dragon Flight Challenges. In the end, it’s a decent movie tie-in for kids, but it lacks the creativity and chaos needed to stand out, especially when it comes to the underused Gingerbread Man.
