Critic Reviews for Garfield - Escape from Monday
Garfield - Escape from Monday is a passable 3D platformer dragged down by its relentless self-deprecating humor and sluggish platforming.
That being said, Escape From Monday clearly does enough right, as I went right back to find every lasagne, complete every time trial, and go for 100 percent.
Garfield - Escape From Monday brings the sarcastic orange cat from the comic strips into the world of video games, crafting a 3D platformer that's enjoyable to play, but feels shockingly familiar.
It’s not going to win any awards and really doesn’t bring anything new or fresh to the table.
If you enjoy the Garfield animated TV show or this Lasagna-loving feline's forays into videogames, then Escape From Monday should be a breezy and entertaining platforming pleasure. Yes, Escape From Monday does crib from other established platformers, and it is short and overly simple with controls that can be a tad irksome at times, but with the humour on display and a bonkers premise, Escape From Monday avoids a cat-astrophe and you'll be suitably paw-leased with this one.
Turn your mind off, run around, win the game with little challenge: you deserve a victory lap, life is tough enough. I mean I kept playing and enjoyed myself.
Garfield: Escape from Monday is a solid 3D platformer and one of the better outings for the titular fat feline, held back slightly by a lack of overall difficulty that may make you feel like a lazed cat.
Garfield: Escape from Monday from developer OSome Studio is a good game that meets the standards of a 3D platforming experience. While it could have used a bit more enemy presence, the controls, levels, and overall game are still fun and make good use of the IP.
