Customer Reviews

Money well spent
There are two main features that set this game apart from most play station fodder: firstly, its relies heavily on inter-character cooperation to enhance individual skills and abilities; secondly, it is a much more thoughtful enterprise than the usual “smash and blast ‘em” - sure, there are fights and excitement aplently but you also have to hide, run and use artefacts or simple brain power to work your way through the various levels. The relationship of the game to either film or book is sometimes slightly tenuous but it is probably just gripping enough for disbelief to be willingly suspended. The graphics are good and the 3-D perspective easy to use. Split screen is not an option, so the characters have to stick together and swapping between them (as you will need to do to solve various predicaments) can be a little confusing at first as can harnessing the growing skill levels, artefacts and weapons possessed by Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy: this is a game where is it ESSENTIAL that you read the instruction booklet before you start!

After two weeks, we are still getting fun from it and have decided it is best played with dual controllers, sibling/sibling or parent/sprog both work well (even if the parents keep mucking up occasionally). The target age range seems to be 8-12; 14+ might find it a little simple (until they’ve reached second childhood), but that is in keeping with book and film. Although heavily illustrated with film clips with which the game synchs well, it is better for being familiar with the story although this is not essential to the completion, it does add to the fun. Overall, money well spent!

A Great Game!
The Chronicles of Narnia - The Lion The Witch & The Wardrobe is a game definitely worth buying. The effects are very good and unlike many Playstation games the makers have combined the levels with clips from the actual film. Many of the levels are challenging and it may take a while to get past a particularly difficult creature but it is definitely worth it. The characters can team up to perform special attacks and collecting coins allows you to unlock special moves for Edmund, Peter, Susan and Lucy.
For me one of the many positives of this game is the fact that if you are stuck on a particular level you can always have a friend play one of the other characters making a level that much easier to complete and much more enjoyable - a must have.

EXCELLENT GAME!!!BUT MAYBE TO EASY!
This game allows you to have hours of fun!Especially in multiplayer mode.You can play as either Peter,Susan,Lucy and Edmund.The gameplay does go fast but you won't get bored!The game also has special features like an interview with Peter and the other characters.This game is very fun but if your playing with a friend in multiplayer mode it can be quite easy.But all in all this is a game worth buying.
