Description:
By all accounts Disney's Lilo & Stitch is one of the better films to come from the Mouse House in recent years. But no matter the quality of the accompanying films, Disney's games have been of a predictable standard: they're always bland and inoffensive. Experiment 626, though, is completely different in that... no, it's no good. Unfortunately Experiment 626 and the phrase "bland and inoffensive" are a match made in heaven. This is an extremely linear, needlessly easy platform game with basic graphics and not a single original idea to call its own. No doubt Disney will claim it's aimed at kids and therefore has to
By all accounts Disney's Lilo & Stitch is one of the better films to come from the Mouse House in recent years. But no matter the quality of the accompanying films, Disney's games have been of a predictable standard: they're always bland and inoffensive. Experiment 626, though, is completely different in that... no, it's no good. Unfortunately Experiment 626 and the phrase "bland and inoffensive" are a match made in heaven. This is an extremely linear, needlessly easy platform game with basic graphics and not a single original idea to call its own. No doubt Disney will claim it's aimed at kids and therefore has to be this way, but the whole concept of "kids' games" seems a very odd one: if there's a child alive that isn't at least twenty times better than their parents at any game that's put in front of them they really are in the minority. Experiment 626 is not a very good video game; it is, however, based on a Disney film, so children who liked the film will no doubt enjoy it. However, we can't help but think they're almost certain to enjoy the vastly superior Jak & Daxter and a ticket to see the movie again even more. --David Jenkins
