DJ: Science Fair of Doom is good messy 3D. [Apr 2007, p.54]

DJ is a funny guy, but his games have yet to hook me. [June 2007, p.119]

A decent game marred by glitches and rushes.

Death Jr. and the Science Fair of Doom is a snore-fest laden with abominable controls, physics and level/enemy design. Redeeming factors are scarce.

Although Death Jr. and the Science Fair of Doom is by no means a bad game, it lacks an overall polish and a certain oomph to bring it in line with other DS games on the market.
50
There's arguably some creativity in the souls-as-power-ups bit, but having to switch into spirit mode, grab the proper color orb (assuming the tapping works; it's erratic), and sling it at DJ's feet in order to heal is a cumbersome chore.

What plagues Death, Jr. the most severely is its overall lack of polish--it just doesn't feel like a finished product. [July 2007, p.96]
50
There's plenty of ambition on show but Death, Jr. and the Science Fair of Doom is too complicated and patchy to be much fun.
50
It was frustrating, tedious, and uninteresting.
50
One of the earlier platformer for the PSP now jumps to the DS, but looses much of its appeal, and reduced to a single-button gameplay and dull storyline.
