Good
- The art, music, and play control are professionally made. Very unusual for a tie-in game.
- The falling block puzzle was very unexpected, but appreciated after so much platforming.
Bad
- The game is actually fairly challenging, they just give you too many hit points and too many lives.
- Like most tie-in games, the game has very little to do with the thing it's advertising. It's as though the developers already had a game in mind, and just pasted a McDonald's skin on it.
Ugly
- Nothing.
Media
Box Art
The original Japanese box art. It fits the cartoon nature of the game quite well, but doesn't give you an idea of what the game will be like.
The North American art is definitely superior, however Ronald looks like a serial killer.
