Reception
The game has gotten negative reviews from all critics. The game had un-appealing graphics, extremely easy gameplay, and a very short amount of games to play. Despite the game having a Teen rating, the game seems more geared toward children, and quizes will seem almost impossible to those who havn’t seen tons of Universal movies. The fact that you also had to constiantly pick up garbage around the apparently unclean theme park not only wasn’t fun for gamers, but also would likley give Universal Studios a slightly bad reputation. Critics also disliked that the Waterworld “mini-game” wasn’t even a game at all, but a three second movie showing the climax of the show.
