I haven't played the game, but this is the sort of concept licensed games SHOULD latch onto.  Draw from the license--use its history, personality, and action sequences--don't just plaster on a familiar face.

This'll be like the sixth Third Party DS game I buy...  Although I'll probably wait until I get a good deal on it.  I am interested in it...

I don't know. The game seems to go beyond "non-game" into the realm of "not even a game." The animation is funny and great, but it feels like it's too few and far between. You'd probably get better value out of just watching the original cartoon. I agree that it's a great premise, but the execution is kind of lacking.

Evan will have a review for Duck Amuck very soon.

When I first saw stuff about this game I was very perplexed.  However, as I kept up on it (mostly waiting for a train wreck) I actually felt kind of optimistic.  I mean, it seems uniquely suited to the DS, and his character is a good target for a gamer's experimental pokes.  You could make Daffy react in ways way over the top and still be in character.  

I think this game might actually be good!  The interview seems to back this novel idea up.  They seem to really articulate well why this license works will this platform.  That's something that developers don't often "get."

One thing tho, there's already a Rabbit Rampage game.  Sunsoft SNES.  It's a good licensed game, no less.
