The name makes you smile, the game takes it away

Nov 8, 2007

Great name! If only somebody with a bigger budget had thought of it first. While we love the concept of a ginger ninja terrorizing the cake shop, the only thing this game has really got going for it is the lead character.

It's a bog-standard 3D platformer with incredibly horrid controls. Simply getting the sugary hero to land on a platform is no mean feat, as he'll often slide right off the other side or fail to jump high enough because he hit a sticky wall. It's an opportunity lost through low production values.

You'll love
  • The game's clever title. Tee hee
  • Concept of a cookie ninja
  • Did we mention the title?
You'll hate
  • Controls are gawd-awful
  • Falling off things over, and over
  • Funny art squandered by weak graphics
