The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron Boy Genius: Attack of the Twonkies is a 3D platformer that was released during the days of the PlayStation 2. It was a fun show from the people at Nick and it was a big enough hit to get a movie, a spin-off show, and more than a few video games such as this one here as well. Look, clearly this is a game made for kids, but if you are looking for a game for a younger gamer, you can do a heck of a lot worse than this that is for sure.

Those Pesky Twonkies!

The plot of the game is based around a specific episode of the show so fans of the show will get a kick out of that. As the title, The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron Boy Genius: Attack of the Twonkies suggests, The Twonkies are the antagonists of the game. Jimmy has gone to outer space on an adventure and the Twonkies have followed him back to Earth and are causing havoc. It is up to him to stop them and get rid of them so things can go back to normal.

Dinner Time With Nick!

The presentation here is fine, it is actually quite impressive when you consider the fact that The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron Boy Genius: Attack of the Twonkies was actually released as a budget game back in the day. They have managed to capture the look and feel of the Nick animated show very well. Things are a bit dark, but to be fair I think that is because of the hardware that they were dealing with. They managed to get the voice actors from the show to reprise their roles so the cut scenes are a lot of fun.

Before Crafting Was A Thing

This is a 3D action-platformer and in that regard, it is pretty average. Thankfully, Jimmy controls well enough and the camera is never an issue. However, with Jimmy being a genius inventor this game plays into that very well as you will have to find items to craft things. You will need to make gizmos, inventions, and super inventions as you progress through each level. These require you to find a certain few items and mixing them together like Jimmy does in the show. Gizmos are the easiest thing to make in The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron Boy Genius: Attack of the Twonkies as these require just two items. Inventions will require you to find three and super inventions require four items. The items are never exactly hidden all that well so you will probably come across them as you are walking from one area to the next. Again, this is aimed at kids, but I do think here they could have made it a little challenging and encouraged more exploration.

Good Boy Goddard!

Just like in the show, Jimmy’s faithful robot dog Goddard has a big role to play and it is a lot of fun. He is called into action a fair bit and as you progress through the game you will need to find certain items that will allow him to use a new ability. As well as these sections, you also get to take control of vehicles too so there is more variety here than you would think which is great considering this is a budget title.

8

It would be so easy to pass off The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron Boy Genius: Attack of the Twonkies as some kind of garbage kids game, but that would be very unfair. Yes, this game is ridiculously easy, but at the end of the day it is made for kids ages 5 to 7 and I think they would have fun with it. If you grew up with the show, thanks to how authentic it is to the show, you may even get a kick out of it yourself. Honestly, this is far better than it has any right to be.

Pros:

  • It is a fun game for younger gamers to enjoy
  • It is very faithful to the show
  • The voice acting is great
  • There is a decent variety to the gameplay

Cons:

  • This game is so, so easy!
  • Due to being a PS2 era game, the visuals are a tad washed out and dark
