As a fan of the movie, I was pretty disapointed by this game. It's not bad, but it's nothing special. There's also no strategy to it at all. Punch, kick, jump, repeat and you beat the game. Even if you're a fan of the movie, rent this first.

We were so fired up to finally be getting the Shrek Game Boy game. My son has really enjoyed all of his games and has gotten really good at them. But, just imagine my surprise when I saw him with tears streaming down his face after just a few minutes of playing. My first reaction was to remind him that it will take some practice to get better. His response to me was "It's just a fighting game." He even had his own ideas of how it could have been better, (ie. more puzzle levels, jumping, ala Mario). I take blame for this one. I didn't read the back of the box. I assumed........and you know...... There are lots of great games out there. Save your money on this one.

I saw, and loved the movie. I expected this game to be somewhat of an action adventure, with the ability to switch characters and solve puzzles. Picture the image of Shrek being able to belly-bash, and the donkey being able to jump and bray. What I got was basically just a fighting game, ala Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter. The game itself is good, but all you get to do, is play as many different characters and fight best of three rounds. It has special moves to learn, and is a decent fighting game, but nothing more. You just need to take this into account, and if you like that idea, then buy it, if not....it might be good for a rent.

this is defanately a five star rating game it has twelve levals all of wich are areas from the movie.the grafics are cool!
you can choose your dificalty.you can choose easy normal or
hard. i sugest easy or normalif your not that a serious gamer.
i loved the game and my 6 year old sister love the game also though she can never get passed the third leval without the cheet code.
this game is defanately a must buy!
dont waste your money on some other stupid game. if your going to waste your money at all buy this game!

Shrek: Fairy Tale Freakdown is the first Shrek fighting game, and it was pretty good. You get to play as one of several Shrek 1 characters and make your way through the various levels, beating the snot out of your opponents all the way. This game was okay, but a little too hard and repetitive. Still, you should rent it. It's not quite good enough to buy.

I like this game very much! So far I've beaten it 3 times. Sometimes I get beaten by the Gingerbread Man. But I don't use the password to beat the Gingerbread Man when lose,I try to beat him. After a few loses, I can beat him!!!!!!

If you've seen the movie, you may be tempted to go buy this game but don't. It is a fighting game that has nothing to do with the movie. It is extremely boring and is not fun at all. Trust me! Do yourself a favor and save your money!!

This game was awful. I bought, thinking it would be like the movie, but it wasn't. It wasn't worth the money. You just jump around, hitting the other player. Buy Zelda or Mario instead.

I apprecitate the time that it came when I needed it for my son's game device.

This game is great. You choose a character, and fight the other characters. Heres the order of how good the fighters are:

1. Shrek
2. Princess Fiona
3. Dragon
4. Ginger Bread Man
5. Lord Farquad
6. Thelonius
7. Monsieur Hood
8. Pinnochio
9. Big Bad Wolf

For all you Donkey fans bad news. Hes not a fighter. Sucks huh?
