What Were They Thinking?

By "they," I mean the programmers.
I really wanted to like this game. I'm a life-long fan of The Chronicles of Narnia and thought the game would be a nice change of pace.
Nope. The puzzles are horrible, and it's seldom clear what you have to do to finish it. Even then, the game goes out of its way to make things difficult for the player. (Time limits for quests that require a lot of slow moving. Poor aiming. The same button does multiple things, so if you aren't extremely careful about when you hit a button, you will get the wrong result.)
Given that the target audience is children, I have no idea why the game is so complex.
