Kids Encyclopedia Facts

Shrek 2 is an exciting action-adventure video game released in 2004. It's based on the popular animated movie of the same name, where Shrek and his friends go on a big adventure!

How to Play the Game

In Shrek 2, you get to play as one of four different characters, working together as a team. Each character has special moves that help you get through the game:

  • Donkey can use his "Burro Blast" to smash big objects that are in your way.
  • Lil' Red (also known as Little Red Riding Hood) can throw apples at enemies to stop them.
  • Other characters from the movie also join your team, each with their own unique abilities to help you on your quest.

The game is a type of "beat 'em up" and "3D platformer." This means you'll fight enemies and jump across platforms in a 3D world. You can play by yourself or with friends, making it a fun cooperative game!

The Story of the Game

The game's story starts right before Shrek and Fiona travel to meet Fiona's parents. Before they leave, Shrek, Fiona, Donkey, and Gingy (the Gingerbread Man) decide they need to gather some snacks for their long journey. This simple task quickly turns into a big adventure, just like in the movie! They meet many characters and face challenges as they prepare for their trip to the land of Far Far Away.
