Our memories of the classic Looney Tunes cartoons of our youth don't actually include Bugs Bunny shooting his animated chums in the face with a shotgun. Even Elmer Fudd. Yet this is exactly Acme Arsenal's formula. Daffy Duck plus rocket launcher = game. Odd.

As well as the focus on firearms, each character has a melee weapon that they pull out of some hidden orifice when the attack button is tapped.

There are combos, but they're a headache because you have little control over your character once you've initiated one.

So you often fall off platforms, although thankfully checkpoints are frequent.

On the up side, all the Looney Tunes legends are playable characters. On the down side, they all play exactly the same. Level design is horrible, and will frustrate the youngsters at whom the game is targeted, particularly since the camera frequently starts moving around by itself.

Two-player co-op alleviates this somewhat and two-player deathmatch has its thrills, slightly resembling the far superior game Fur Fighters. But half-baked multi-player can't save a game that otherwise commits every sin a platformer can!

Frustrating, disheartening and broken in places: a perfect recipe for making kids cry.
