Continuando essa minha aventura pessoal pelos jogos veios, decidi jogar um jogo que gostava muito na infância, os sem floresta de PS2, amava tanto esse jogo que foi um dos poucos que zerei na época.
O jogo em si é muito simples você esplora casas atrás de comida quebrando tudo e todos que vê pela frente e fazendo alguns desfios de plataforma aqui e ali,contendo aquelas típicas fases de proteger o amigo enquanto hordas de bicho te atacam e tiram vida do teu amigo.
A dificuldade do jogo é bem tranquila,não passei nenhuma raiva nele pois os controles dos bonecos são bem competentes, meu maior problema com o jogo é que na reta final dele você começa a ter que matar número x de bichos para avançar a cada sala da fase, oque é bem massante de ficar fazendo jogo já que os inimigos demoram para morrer.
O jogo tem alguns minigames que eram minha parte favorita na infância, são bem simples mas são legais ainda mais quando se é criança.
P.S:

Saudades quando o jogos tinham opção de ver concept arts,storyboard e etc no proprio jogo,achava muito maneiro....

...é um jogo bom que não se vé mais hoje em dia pois todo jogo precisa ser uma grande campanha com graficos incriveis e garantia de que vai fazer rios e rios de dinheiro e não apenas se pagar então não vale a pena fazer um jogo bobo dos sem florestas hoje em dia.

I'd actually not planned on playing this game - I am currently watching every Pixar movie and playing it's equivalent game adaptation, but I've already watched (almost) every DreamWorks movie and the ones I have left don't really have video game adaptations.

While looking at the game selection in a local media store I saw they had this and as much as I wanted it, I didn't own the movie; I was eventually persuaded into buying both the movie and the game.

Set a year after the movie (with the games first few levels showing an alternative ending for the movie), Over The Hedge: The Videogame follows the cast from the movie (plus some new characters) pulling "heists" as per, for things like projectors, laptops and PDAs, as well as the usual foodstuff like popcorn machines and bags of chips.

Dwayne, the villain who owns VermTech (apparently?), has developed a "mind control" cap that causes other vermin to attack ours, and at the end of the game he kidnaps one of the characters, which prompts the gang to defeat him and destroy the mind control stuff.

The gameplay is a mix of Devil May Cry (from what I understand about it) and LEGO® games; run into a room, spam a button and hope you don't die.
It's pretty fun.
There's a bunch of collectables like hats and DVDs, and you unlock minigames for completing certain objectives (like not setting off traps or finding hidden things).
These objectives don't seem super difficult and you're able to go back and replay any level at any time, so I might actually attempt to complete this game one day.

The hats just give you extra health, while the DVDs unlock extras like concept art, minimovies and comics.

The minigames you unlock with objectives are an R.C. car racing game, a sort of "golf" game where you have to shoot a certain type of item in a time limit, and a kinda boring bumper cars game.
As far as I know, all completing these objectives actually do is give you more tracks or arenas or something in these minigames so I'm honestly less inclined to complete the game now. Maybe there's more to them, though.

The unlockable "extras" are concept art from both the movie and the game (as well as a few pictures of the movie itself for some reason), cutscenes from the game as well as model spins of characters and storyboards of cutscenes (which actually surprised me! I was expecting this to just be cutscenes and clips from the movie itself), a selection of music from the game and comics that I assume are actual Over The Hedge comics (this game is based on the movie which in turn is based on a comic strip).

Overall, this game is pretty fun, and I'd definitely try to get all the collectables and objectives done, but what they unlock isn't really worth it unless you have people who are willing to play the games you unlock.
Still, it seems like it'd be worth playing just for fun.

Oh my god this was one of my most absolute favorite games growing up. Some of the best memories that I hold close to me are of me and my brother playing the shit out of this game , co-oping and completing it. I played this when I was very young but I remember how fun it was having to sneak around the levels and not get noticed and fighting different enemies and playing as different characters and the puzzles and co-op puzzles were just so incredibly the fun. The bosses were impressive as well. This has to be my favorite game that I grew up playing together with my brother, we need to play through the whole game again for old time’s sake now that we finally found the disc after losing it for like 10 years.

Underrated beat 'em up classic. I love the movie to bits, but the game I also love to bits. This was one of my childhood games but I either lost interest, lost the save or never got that far, ironically I was playing a ripped version without knowing (a.k.a they cut out all the cutscenes, music and voice acting), tho even now I kinda prefer the peaceful feeling no music gives over having music. But I say this without nostalgia or childhood bias, this game fucking rules, it's a lot of fun and I appreciate it acting as not only a sequel to the movie but also taking even more from comic strips. And we know we're not getting a sequel to the movie, so this is the next best thing, well the comic strips are still going, so the material is there but y'know. There is also Hammy Goes Nuts on PSP and DS, and DS version of the movie game here seems impressive, idk about Over the Hedge GBA though. Hammy Goes Nuts doesn't have a plot of insane sigficance, but hey one more Over the Hedge media likely set after the movie, maybe someday, y'know?

Either way, I love this game a lot and I'm glad I finally gave it another shot and beat it in 2020 after all these years.

Played as a kid. Alright, but not particularly good.
