Gameplay Information
"Shrek was once a feared and grumpy orge, remaining within his swamp and scaring off any intruders. Once the tranquility of his home was threatened by the evil Lord Farquaad, though, Shrek set off on an adventure which taught him the meaning of friendship and compassion. While he is now regarded as a hero, Shrek still enjoys the simple things in life, such as mud baths and onion stew.

Deep down, though, Shrek misses the days where he was seen as a frightening force. Hearing of a fighting tournament looking for new competitors, Shrek eagerly entered to show the world that ogres were meant to be feared! Should go better than his run-in with Rumplestiltskin, anyway…"
