Barnyard
About the Game
Barnyard is an offering from THQ based on the movie of the same name from Nickelodeon. You arrive at the farm as a newbie cow and must complete quests and earn respect in order to win keys that allow you to advance through the barnyard map.
Story & Setting
The map is fairly large and there are plenty of things to do beyond the missions and quests your fellow animals assign you.
Gameplay & Core Systems
Movement is accomplished with the WASD or arrow keys, while the mouse controls the camera angle. Other keys access your inventory and the map, allow you to aim and squirt milk at opponents (even when you play as a boy!), and confirm menu selections. There are places to explore, barrels to break, and minigames like whack-a-raccoon, bowling, and bicycle races. As you play, you need to keep up your stamina, which decreases as you run around the farm.
