If I could use single words to describe this trash they would be...ATROCIOUS...NAUSEATING...PATHETIC...IRRELEVANT. This game is so bad, I wonder if the actual TV series are just as vomit-inducing. This game is SO bad, how can children bear with it, never mind adults!? Educational you say?!?! If this is the state of modern-day education (sordid story telling in place of growth and development-based fun), then God help our future generations! This game is SOOOOO BAD, that people would have more fun hammering nails into a coffee table or watching paint dry. The graphics seem worse than PS1-era games, the dialogue seems ok but cringe-worthy in most places (and get this, they could'nt even be bothered to use animation/3D models during the talking) and don't get me worked up about the actual gameplay...I have been more ecstatic about peeling paint using a butter knife, than I have been about hitting (yes hitting, not fighting) the blobs and sticks that are meant to resemble the enemies in this money-making scheme ****. And smelly socks? As collectibles??!?! Do these guys move around with a recycling bin over their heads??!! I would not normally score a game zero, but this really has let me down on all fronts...there is no saving grace for this awful, awful, AWFUL game...I did hear that most cartoon-based games were terrible, BUT NOT THIS TERRIBLE!

Troll Hunters: Defenders of Arcadia is a 2D Hack-and-Slash action Platformer. Based on the Netflix original Dreamworks Series, this game marks it's first venture to the consoles. Even having knowledge of the series, the story was lacking, and any time you add Time travel to a story line, you raise issues... The usual issue in time travel seem to have been kept to a minimum, but I'm sure hardcore fans, and those familiar with all the lore would find all the oddities and inconsistencies time travel in an already established time brings. But enough about the story, as i can't tell you much more without spoilers. The game play isn't fantastic, and lacks variety. The enemies you face with the exception of Bosses (and minimally here) don't actually pose much of a threat, and can be dispatched with your repetitive 3 swing sword combo. You do unlock a projectile fairly early, but it proves to be mostly useless against most enemies. Along the way you do unlock a few support abilities, but their uses are fairly limited, and mostly have to do with navigation. Younger fans of the series may get more enjoyment out of the game, as it's basic enough to be a great introduction to the genre for new players. Troll Hunters: DOA (I just realized these initials) isn't as engaging as the series, and a lot of the story is easily lost if you aren't familiar with the show.
