Details edit

The player is able to choose if they want their character to be a man or woman and what skin color they want the character to have. The character has four statistics which are nerve, steadiness, stomach, and stamina. The video game has 12 mini-games which are the gross-out stunts, the skill-type stunts, and the action stunts.[1]

Reception edit

The game received "generally unfavorable reviews" according to video game review aggregator Metacritic.[2]

David Beaudoin of 1UP.com said that the game's biggest flaw is that only fans will truly appreciate the title, and gave the game a D−.[6] Ricky Tucker of Game Vortex said that the mini-games are fun especially on the Game Boy Advance.[7] Chris Faylor of Gaming-Age said that he only recommends the game to die-hard fans of the show.[8]
