If you are a fan of Futurama, like I am, you might enjoy this game. Might. You'll certainly enjoy the cutscenes, that's one thing I can guarantee. The cutscenes are like a whole new episode of Futurama! But, I'm afraid there are a few things lacking in this game.














The graphics in the game are OK. The environments look good, but I'm afraid the characters can sometimes look a bit goofy and horrible. The game uses cel shading, but it doesn't really do the game or the show justice.

The gameplay is fun and action packed, but the controls are clunky and can be very annoying. It can also be extremely hard, depending on your skill level.

The voice acting is great, and one of the few good things about this game. It feature the whole cast of Futurama, and most of the characters, except for Amy, who mysteriously was not feature in the game.

The game is also very short, but there is a wide range of gameplay styles in each level, and different objects to collect. There are also photos and bonus cutscenes to unlock, so it could last you a while.

All in all, an average game. It has a few redeeming features, but unless you are a massive Futurama fan, you probably won't like this game.

Weekly Gamer Score:

5/10

Until next week,
