Critical reception

[edit]

The game has a Metacritic rating of 54% based on 4 critic reviews.[1]

Game Chronicles said "Shrek: Ogres and Dronkeys is not necessarily a terrible game, it is more that it just does nothing to stand out from the crowd of pet simulators that are already saturating the market."[2] Gamezone said "Once all the items are round, there isn’t any point to replay the levels. Parents may want to pass on this one."[3] PocketGamerUK said "While it doesn't quite measure up to the best of the virtual pet breed, Shrek: Ogres and Dronkeys is an almost satisfying game that younger Shrek fans will enjoy."[4] CheatCodeCentral said "While it does have a few redeeming qualities, Shrek: Ogres and Dronkeys is brought down by its unimaginative and poorly executed gameplay mechanic. There's no real plot either, which is a shame."[5] IGN gave it a rating of 7.0 out of 10.[6]
