Rating: - Entertainingly HORRIBLE!
This game was a real disappiontment for Animorphs fans. The graphics are smudgy and in the first level, you just wander around aimlessly.
Rating: - Not Worth Your Time Or Money....
I found this game quite by accident when looking for something to buy and play at Circuit City. Bought it, took it home, and started to play, thinking "Oh cool, I'll be able to morph into animals and fight aliens!"
I wish I had never came across this game.
The first bad thing about this game is the battle system. It mimicks Pokemon in every way, and when you lose the fight in a morph, you have to switch to a new morph. When all your morphs "die," you lose. Also, if you lose a morph, but win the battle in the end, you have to acquire that morph again. Also, attacks have a tendency to miss, so battles can last up to 15 minutes or more.... Another thing is that in order to acquire a morph, you have to fight the animal and defeat it before you can acquire and become it, although this is not true with some animals.
Another bad feature of this game is the fact you have little to no idea what you have to do. There are no tips or explinations on what to do, so you basically have to run around and figure things out for yourself.
Yet another thing is you cannot save your game and instead have to rely on passcodes to continue.
The last thing is the difficulty. I played this game when I was 14, and had the hardest time with it, not even able to beat the first Hork-Bajir I came across. (And I play games like Silent Hill, Resident Evil, Legend of Zelda, Golden Sun, Yu-Gi-Oh, and Tales of Symphonia! So I know it's not me, it's the game level.)
I'm telling you all right now, DON'T BUY THIS GAME. It's not worth the headache.
Rating: - My kids
My kids are fans of the series and do enjoy the game very much. Don't expect next generation graphics or play here, this is a typical gameboy color offering, it would be nice if they made and Animorphs for Advance, but for now, this is the best there is.
Rating: - The worst game I've ever played.
This is the worst game I've ever played. I am a huge fan of the Animorphs books, however, the makers of this game obviously did not bother to read any of the book series. This game is a Pokémon rip off where you collect different morphs but leaves out important features such as experience points. This game is an insult to the intelligence of Animorphs fans and K.A. Applegate's talent as a writer.
Rating: - The books are great, but the game should be burned
This RPG wannabe is not worth the money you pay for it. Once again this is one of those games you're better off burning your money on than purchasing. If you've ever wondered how bad a game could possibly be, all you have to do is play this game. Because it's just not bad, it's abyssmal. The horrible RPG set up results in you either getting killed far too easy, or not knowing what you're doing. I never thought I'd see a game that I'd actually despise with every ounce of my being. But this is one of them.
