Editorial Review: Amazon.co.uk Review: The Grinch is a creature who hates Christmas. He lives with The Whos in Whosville, a race that loves Christmas. In order to ruin the festive season The Grinch creates inventions which helps him spoil any merry activities. However, an explosion has occurred within his cave, casting all his blueprints all over Whosville and in order for him to achieve his Yuletide goal, he get his blueprints back. The Grinch takes all the best aspects of other platform games such as Rayman 2 and Gex--Deep Cover Gecko, and creates something superior to both. With a young target audience in mind, The Grinch is graphically very sharp, with its bright colours promoting the game's adolescent feel. The background music enhances the game's playability with sounds and narrative helping the player understand what The Grinch can do. All the levels are mission-based, where a number of quotas have to be completed in order to advance. While completing these quotas, missing pieces of blueprints can be collected and once all are within your possession, the invention it creates can be made, which can aid you in fulfilling the tasks that have been set. The game is played around four different levels, all filled with hidden items and secret sub-levels. The game takes a third-person perspective, which suits the game well. However, there are some occasions where the camera cannot be moved to show the best view for the task at hand. However, with this minor point aside, The Grinch is an excellent addition to anyone's game collection and will definitely not ruin anyone's Christmas! --Alex Leung Product Description: Based, in part, on the live-action film Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas!, players take the role of the Mean One himself in a third-person action-adventure game. Embark on a quest through 24 missions from Whoville to an underwater world, and across four Seussian environments with three mini-games and a bonus level. Players collect and assemble a variety of gadgets, such as the rotten-egg launcher, the slime shooter, bad breath and the GrinchCopter. Players can transform into the Grinch's sidekick, Max the Dog, to explore areas inaccessible to the Mean One.

 Rating:  - You're a mean one Mr. Grinch!After watching Jim Carey carry this film to sucess last year, I doubted whether a game based on this film could be sucessful without his aid. Dont make the mistake of thinking this game is for young children, as it contains many complex puzzles which will get the most experianced game players fustrated. It has a humours side, just watching a huge hairy green man deface public statues and throw eggs at people is enough to any snigger (especially when its the sickly anoying 'whos'!). The game does however sometimes leave you wandering around a huge area, lost, without a clue as what to do next. This game is light entertainment compared to some of the deeply involving RPG's which are around at the moment, and can take you mind away from how to ...
