Shrek ascended to the kingdom after the death of the Frog King. Despite his dislike for the concept, Shrek and his companions travel to the Worcestershire Academy to recruit Fiona’s cousin, Artie, for the job. Unfortunately, Prince Charming has grand plans to take over the kingdom while abroad.
Shrek the Third is an action-platformer focused on brawling and humor. With Prince Charming’s thugs in his path (including black knights, evil gnomes, a crooning Captain Hook, and giant walking trees), Shrek will need to utilize all of his skills to defeat them, find his way home, and pick up some souvenir mugs along the way.
Each level contains various objectives, numerous collectibles, and amusing situations. While Shrek appears in most courses, there are six playable characters (Donkey, Puss in Boots, Fiona, Artie, and Sleeping Beauty), over 20 levels, three central boss encounters, and various multiplayer minigames.
