NWR writes: "D3Publisher's The Secret Saturdays: Beasts of the 5th Sun is based on a popular Cartoon Network television show. I have not seen the show, but from what the game presents, it seems like a variation on "The Incredibles," but with Cryptids at the forefront. Developed by High Voltage Software, the game has a basic similarity to the classic 2D Bionic Commando and is a linear, yet surprisingly fun romp."
Gamewelt: The Saturdays are a cartoon family with monstrous abilities. These bring the hero pack, but not from the Spielspaßtalsohle. Why The Secret Saturdays: Beasts of the 5th Sun is far from a convincing family video game, and the weighting of the royalty as more importance to quality, you read in the test.
Beast of the 5th Sun is unfortunately yet another mediocre licensed game. It has some good ideas and tries valiantly to present the cartoon universe in video gameform, but only fans of the series will be able to fully enjoy this title.
Level7: First of all, I'll admit that I have not heard of the Secret Saturdays, but it went pretty quickly dawned on me that this game must be linked to one license. Indeed, it is based on a TV series of the same name directed against the young. To the DS, this is, however, on a platform which, even without the warning in mind that there is a licensed game, deserves some criticism.
