A good game, a different game, a game that rewards those that stick with it with something plenty entertaining, but you’re going to have to strap on a pair of blinders to get there without cringing a couple times.

A refreshing, original, and compelling twist on the 3D platformer, Herdy Gerdy rises above its potentially dull premise.

Fun and beautiful, with gameplay every bit as fresh as its graphics. [May 2002, p.33]

This is going to be more of first impressions den a review because I couldn't get that far before the technical problems lost me along the way. Basically the game concert shift between 30 frames a second and 60 frames a second all the time so unbearable to look at that I had to stop before getting headaches.This is sad because I think I would enjoy the game but a technical issues. It's just too big.

The character designs and architecture at work here are pure vintage Core...Special doesn't begin to tell the tale. [Apr 2002, p.46]

I found myself enjoying the game most when I would play in 30 minute or so span times. I would get to a place that would frustrate me, turn the game off and then come back later to progress.

"Fresh, unique, light-hearted, entertaining, creative." Any of these words apply to Herdy Gerdy, but sadly so do, "Frustrating, unruly, unresponsive and premature release."

It's new, it's fresh, it is ruined by a faulty camera!
55
Exasperating, not exciting is the prevailing taste left in one's mouth, especially when dealing with the camera.
25
An exercise in boredom and frustration.
