Being a childrens game, it is not made to be played hours upon hours in one sitting, but makes it fun to get back to once in a while, without being boring or repetetive.
Pro The feeling of achieveing something
If you're the kind of person that likes to hunt for secret items, hidden achievements, and rare events, this game is for you.

The end goal of this game is to collect all the animals that are avaliable.
Cons
Con Very challenging
This is not a game for Grandma, the action is very fast paced and intense. Even if you're already an expert gamer, you will lose many times before you learn how to win.
Con The game is a bit hard to get
You will need a physical copy and a controller to play, because the game was originally made for Xbox 360, and "Games for Windows Live" has been shut down.
