This is a really fun game for the casual gamer. Super Cow is reasonably challenging but definitely beatable. Some replay value too because the levels are so large -- it's just about impossible to find all the valuables on the first try.

I gave this game 4 stars rather than 5 because it does have some flaws. There are two or three levels where Super Cow can become embedded in rock walls. It's a relatively minor bug because if you replay the level & remember where it occurred, you can jump over the spot. But, it is annoying.

SuperCow makes it fun for this game. It is not to hard and not to easy. It is a game where you want to win but you do better the next time. You learn from this game playing it over again. You have a lot of levels so the game is worth it for the money. This game has controls for jumping, pause and saving the game. Like a Mario game. Very enjoyable.

Finally a fun casual computer game like Mario. I'd love to see more of them rather than more war and battle games.

I purchased this game and the elf bowling game and none of them work I sent amazon an email requesting help and they refer me to the developer page.


Here is what amazon.com wrote:

I know that when I download the trial of the game from elsewhere the trial works. I believe the developer has changed the software in amazon store where it uses a different file to open and that file crashes everytime I try to play the game, and I believe thats the problem.

The overall game premise is simple: collect coins, destroy enemies. It is very similar to Super Mario Bros., but with more focus on exploring and coin collecting. Supercow is a very competent attempt at a simple side-scroller for the whole family. It's great to wind down with after a day of shooting terrorists on Modern Warfare. Supercow is gorgeous to look at, and was lovingly crafted from start to finish. Great voice acting helps flesh out an unnecessary plot of sorts, as does a gentle learning curve and loads and loads of levels to explore. It's biggest weakness is also its greatest strength, and that is the simplicity of the gameplay. You simply walk and jump. Easy to love, but not much meat to it. I would love to see this developer try their hand at a dense, fully funded, sidescrolling console game.

I really wanted to play this game, it was a gift and I had high hopes. When I installed it, it also installed, in a separate location, some software for some Internet gaming stuff. I could not play the game without it, and when I left it installed it pulled me out of the game and opened some kind of a website on my desktop instead. I never was able to play the game (couldn't figure out how!) and ended up uninstalling it. The person who gave it to me was very disappointed and so was I. What an awful let down and what a horrible piece of junk to install when people pay money for a GAME and not your website's interface/portal client software.

Developers ought to be ashamed of themselves and people who rate this highly should pay attention when they install it and look at the extra services running on their machine afterward. I'm really disappointed and really wanted to play this game because it genuinely looked cute and fun. What a shame.

I'm getting a little tired of hidden object puzzle games. This is an engaging Mario Brothers type of game. It reminds me a little of donkey kong. The object being to collect all the money and kill all of the enemies and find the secrets on each level before advancing to the next level.

This game is rather fun and humorous. It actually had more levels than I expected.
Its very easy but enjoyable nonetheless.
