Blend Games: Madagascar 2: Escape 2 Africa Review

Blend Games writes: "Licensed games based on chlildren's movies and TV shows are usually pretty lackluster. Publishers pump out these games like Hasbro pumps out toys for movies, and that's exactly how the movie studios view the games; as another source of revenue and advertising. And just like the cheesy toys that fall apart after a few plays, the games aren't very well-made either. That's not to say that the developers are unskilled or lack any ability in their craft - far from it. A good example would be WayForward Technologies, who have made such fantastic licensed titles as Barbie's Twelve Dancing Princesses and Spongebob: Creature from the Krusty Krab but also kicked your ass over and over in the fantastic Contra 4".
