Overview
Players check out Land of Ooo locales, talk to characters, sharpen their creative puzzle-solving skills, and defeat bad guys. Loosely based on the TV show's sixth season, the game features a focus on exploring, investigating, and puzzle-solving. Thanks to the discovery of an assignment printing machine called the 'tickertype,' Finn and Jake decide to become detectives like their parents, Joshua and Margaret. Players gradually fill the treasure room of Finn and Jake's Tree House with treasure from enemies that they defeat.
Reception
It has a score of 66 on Metacritic. Nintendo Life awarded it a score of 7 out of 10, saying "While it might prove too basic for more advanced players, younger players and families should have a fun time questing with dog and human. Big fans of the show, of course, should not feel so afraid to give this one a try, either." Nintendo World Report awarded it a score of 7 out of 10, saying "By default, I feel as if this is the best Adventure Time video game so far. It's not perfect, and it's a little on the easy side, but as an Adventure Time fan, it made me smile."
