Day 88, Game 88 - Adventure Time: Hey Ice King! Why'd You Steal Our Garbage?!

So, day two from Disneyland, the happiest place on earth. Still having a blast, in case you were wondering, which you probably weren't since you come here to read about games, not my vacation.

So, with that said, I had a chance to get my game time in when the kids were at the pool this evening. I again whipped out my 3DS XL (which has been bombarded by StreetPasses, mind you) and played Adventure Time: Hey Ice King! Why'd You Steal Our Garbage?!. And yes, that is the actual real name of the game.

I'll be brief, because hey, I am on vacation and all. If you like the Adventure Time cartoon, you will love this game. The writing is spot-on with the show, and it features all the characters you know and love, and even the ones you might have forgotten about. The game plays as a 2D platformer, but with a very Zelda: Link to the Past-style main world overlay. It's very cool, and a nice nod to the games that came before it.

The only thing I don't like is the lack of dialogue. For a show that has so many different and memorable voices, you would think they could have incorporated them more into the game, instead of just the text throughout.

That's it though. It's a fun little game, especially for fans of the show. For everyone else, you probably just won't get it. And that's a shame.

Sorry to be so brief, but it's getting close to firework time. Just be happy I didn't post "It's A Small World" lyrics for you, since that's what I have had stuck in my head all day.
