My Take on the Game
This was a ton of fun and with the fact that you get to choose your character (based on the movie characters) my daughter and I had a blast. The game had great graphics and was interactive and engaging. I was impressed also with the overall story itself as it did follow a similar premise to the movie, but was also a bit different. I loved the differing areas in which you play this game and the creators have done a great job at creating an internal world that draws you into the game further. It does take a little bit to get used to the overall controls of the game, but once you do get ready for a fun game that will keep you entertained for a long time!
