Cartoon Network: Punch Time Explosion is almost identical to Super Smash Bros. Did Papaya Studio simply copy the idea from that game or what? There are four main characters that fight it out in arenas. You have to be careful here and watch your health meter because the higher it goes the more damage you have sustained, until eventually you are kicked out of the game.
The game features a few secret characters that can be unlocked, but you will first have to play through the single story mode. The narrative is told by the famous George Lowe and he does a very good job of talking you through the story. The acting however, is shoddy and poorly done. The developer didn't pay much attention to making a great game here. It seems they released the prototype onto the market.
If you play the single player mode, you jump over pits, fight baddies, and collect health. It's pretty much common stuff, but the scrolling is bad, and your movements are not precise, the fighting doesn't seem to be all that enjoyable. Sometimes you can encounter jerky movements and the controls don't seem to respond.
As you progress from one level to the next, you find the game becomes boring. There is nothing new in the upper levels, everything you do is exactly the same in all of the levels. The only difference you notice is the scenery, which does change every time you move onto a higher level. You can progress quickly as the levels are small and easy to play. You don't face any serious challenges.
If you played Super Smash Bros, you will hardly want to play this game. It's as if you're playing the same game, but the version that was still in development. So now you're playing a half game, and you will feel disappointment and probably quit the game before you even reached halfway. You won't want to limber on to unlock the special characters because your enthusiasm will be dampened by the sheer simplicity and awkwardness of this game. It's a game that makes you feel miserable. Don't play it before bedtime, you'll have nightmares.
The game seems to be filled with glitches and bugs that ruin your gameplay. Even at times when the game is running smoothly, there simply is no enjoyment in playing it. The multi-player mode promises a better experience, but when you finally try it, you find it's just as poor as single player mode. Your friends will hate you for getting them to play this game with you.
The 3D does not even look like 3D. Other games that use 3D have a much better effect. Cartoon Network: Punch Time Explosion is not worth your time and effort. If you pass this game by, you won't be sorry and perhaps it is the best thing to do. Don't waste your hard earned money on a game that doesn't deliver. Gamers want entertainment, and they want to enjoy the games they play. This game promises neither.
