I truly enjoyed the books and the recent movie that came out, only to be disappointed by the game. The game has an interesting format, where you get to pick between characters and perform various tasks to move through each level. This format has worked wonderfully in other games, like the Lego Star Wars games, but does not help this game at all. The beginning does give a good way of exhibiting the controls, but I feel that the tasks that you perform are not exciting at all. At one point, the boys use a stick to knock down ice and wolves. Susan uses tennis balls to keep bats out of the house. And they also have to hide from their nanny, Mrs. McCray, which you do by pressing A. This part was the most confusing and most wasteful part of the game. It just felt like all the excitement and awe of narnia was washed out and replaced to meet the means of a children's video game. If you have a young child that is barely started to play video games, then this game is for them. Other than that, the only way to be excited for the next movie, Prince Caspian, is to watch the movie again.
