Not bad, not good – Garfield's Wild Ride Review

Funn-ish gameplay but some problems. Big one: it doesn't always give you the money reward for completing 3 missions, and when it does, it's really delayed, not when you get the award screen but multiple games later. Buggy. Also the clothes and lasagna trophies don't seem to give any benefit. Only the $10,000 superpower upgrades seem to, and apparently you can't do missions and get those because a lot of missions, it costs more to buy some pointless item than you win in the mission (even were you to get your reward). What about the glasses letting you see stuff further out? Or something to slow down enemies or time or both? Or an extra life? Or something to reverse your gravity (ie, you float and tapping makes you fall)? Or any old power-up from the items, really. The witches are also a bit too fast and aim for you when you're going through areas with only one tight squeeze path. There seems to be no way to slow down or speed up so you can't avoid them. Game over. Annoying. Bottom line, could be a lot better. You'd have to enjoy dressing up Garfield just for the fun of it, without expecting gameplay bonuses, to really enjoy it. But it does have pretty graphics and is kind of addictive for some reason.
