Poor Quality: Disappointing Gameplay
The Polar Express is shamelessly milking it. A turd of a game. A turd, can you believe it?!

Disappointing experience with a movie-licensed game
Anything with a movie license sticker on it is now viewed with suspicion after The Polar Express. Do I need to say more?

Fun game, but gets boring quickly
This is a fun game, not bad at all, but The Polar Express will start to bore you after a while...

Mini-games fun, main game boring and gets old quickly
This game is really, really bad. The graphics are okay, not too bad or anything. But the main game is boring and gets old quickly. On the other hand, I did enjoy the mini-games as a child, so that's a plus. Overall, not really recommended, not at all actually. I give The Polar Express a 5.5/10 because I find the mini-games somewhat enjoyable, and as a child, I thought the movie was really cool!

Quickly completed with annoying controls
Not a very enjoyable game. I quickly completed The Polar Express and it has annoying controls. I personally found the movie more enjoyable, so just watch the film.

Quickly Boring and Too Easy
Just like everyone else is saying: The Polar Express gets boring quickly, and it's true, you'll finish it in no time. That's why I understand why it's so cheap. I give it a failing grade!

Cheap game, mediocre gameplay, and tricky controls
This is truly a super bad game, but what do you expect for a game that costs 1 euro... The Polar Express is funny at the beginning, but later on, it becomes really boring, and the controls are quite tricky too.

Monotonous Minigames and Poor Controls
The Polar Express on the Nintendo GameCube was a frustrating experience for me. The minigames lasted far too long and were constantly repeated. The controls often didn’t cooperate, which ruined the enjoyment of the game. I also didn’t find the graphics appealing, rather ugly. It's a shame because it could have been really fun.
