I don't know what came over me to want to buy this game. In all honesty, I was never a fan of the show; and the games have never looked interesting to me in the slightest. Yet, I saw this game on sale a while back, and I thought maybe it would be worth the sale price. Honestly, it could have been; and that's why I'm so disappointed with this game.
Upon starting the game, I immediately thought, "Oh, this is going to be a great - possibly even slight Windwaker vibes. The art is well done for the style, the world seems large and fun to explore, and the humor doesn't seem to terrible for a kid's game." Unfortunately, however, the game went downhill rather instantly. The load times were terrible, the combat was painfully slow, the enemies seemed to be rather RNG heavy at times, and normal items felt a bit too expensive for what they provide. Frankly, when a game is this disappointing, I kind of just don't even know why I should bother criticizing it. I just didn't enjoy much of this game after the first 30 minutes or so once I realized what I was actually in for. Those first few minutes felt so wonderful, but the rest was just so not fun. I think there's something worth saving here, but as most games of this caliber go, I'm sure they had to rush it out due to the publisher; and I just feel let down and like I wasted my money.
I guess if you really love Adventure Time, this might be worth a play; but I couldn't imagine recommending this to anyone based on my experience. Do not touch this game even with a stick.
