Gameplay[edit]

Shrek: Treasure Hunt is a party video game in which players control Shrek on collecting items for the picnic, they will have to go through minigames and challenges, in order to complete the level and receive items. Minigames can be accessed by collecting the required amount of items throughout each platforming stage. Collectables can be found.[1][2]

Plot[edit]

As Shrek is preparing a picnic with Fiona, the three blind mice steal all the picnic equipment such as food and drinks, so Shrek must go on an adventure doing minigames to get the items back before Fiona arrives.

Upon the game's North American release in October, TDK Mediactive announced the formation of the "TDK Impulse" budget label, which was designed to appeal to mainstream buyers of video games, with their titles retailing for the budget price of $9.99.[4]
