Rating : - Mediocre!
Herdy Gerdy was a fun game, don't get me wrong, but it's far from perfect. First of all the gameplay consists of herding animals with various types of objects. The storyline actually isn't so bad and the music is great(different from any other game), but the game can get boring pretty fast. Its a bit to hard and that is what makes this game so frusturating. When I first got this game, I played it quite often and got about 33% done. But then I got stuck and, no matter how many times I'd try, I could not get past that part. I sometimes still will go back to playing that game but I have never been able to get past the part I got stuck at about 2 years ago. On the other hand, this game is a nice wholesome game that is suitable for younger kids.
