YES... I LIKE!!!

The Good
me caveman. me like many things, but me keep it simple for you. tournament play has up to 6 players. what other game do that? clubbing event be the best by far. me hit knees and make you jump. or else me make you look other direction while push you off cliff. me think other events is for chumps.

The Bad
me no like how hard to control self. sometimes make me want to go smash! smash! on cartridge. cave drawings good, but actual characters look like something dino cough up. and music, when present, sound like ape with synthesizer. and we all share same mate in mate toss. even crudla. me didn't know she swung that way. me no judge. but now she no start fire in me loin cloth. me also no like run from tiger. if he catch you, he eat you and live in your cave.

The Bottom Line
but if you going to beat with club, run from tiger, and toss mate around anyway, why not do it in olympics for whole audience to enjoy?
