4.0 out of 5 stars
It's okay.,
By Adam Ruining "My reviews are genuine." (Albany, NY) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Xbox Sneak King (Video Game)
Despite being a budget, throwaway promotional game for the nation's second largest fast food chain, "Sneak King" delivers more shadowy stealth action than "Splinter Cell," "Assassin's Creed," or "Guess Who."
The premise of the game is that you're a maniacal monarch who's fallen in lust with... Well, someone. Although the game never makes it clear, this person, like Joseph Campbell's hero with a thousand faces, is a constantly shifting enigma, continually elluding the King's desparate cries for affection. Stunted from further emotional growth, the King resorts to sulking in alleyways, rummaging through garbage, handing out free Whoppers to passersby, and peering into the windows of suburbia in the dead of night, hoping only to catch a glimpse of his idealized man/woman/other. Truly, "Sneak King" brings home all of the stalker-like action of being the paparazzi, except with less cash, more fries, and the privilege of being royalty. "Sneak King" would have earned five stars, but alas, the X- and Y-axes are inverted and there is no setting to correct this glaring oversight. The King is greatly displeased.

Wish I had spent the money on candy...,
This review is from: Xbox Sneak King (Video Game)
I picked this up from Gamestop for my son at $.99-couldn't resist the price. He tried it out and decided that I paid too much! The objective is to try to sneak around objects in order to deliver a variety of Burger King products to the canned delight of others.
Son's Assessment: The graphics are poor. The controls are unreponsive, camera is wonky and AI (Artificial Intelligence, ie. characters) are consistently unreliable except for the fact that they keep walking along the same path. There's no variety in missions unless you play for quite awhile and are able to unlock different locations. Too tedious and uninteresting to bother... I'm not as critical of the graphics-I've seen worse. The king actually looks quite funny prancing around on his tippy toes at times. His "victory" dances are somewhat amusing. His body does the wave and sometimes throws his hands in the air, fluttering his fingers. However, I can see how the "joke" can only go so far before it becomes annoying. King moves much too slowly for even a patient child. Some characters don't take notice of the king even while staring at his face. It's all really silly, actually, but what do you expect from a low budget, fast-food tie-in? Best use would be as a gag gift for someone who is amused by the King's voyeuristic fluffiness.

About What You'd Expect...,

This review is from: Xbox Sneak King (Video Game)
Someone gave me this game and I have since sold it. Not really worth playing. I did not see the point, but maybe as a family game it would be good.
