    It's a strange game, definitely. It's some fun if you're a child, but not really much of a challenge, not really much replay value here. That piano level is fun though.

    This game is just awful, it took me one hour to beat this game 100% and that included collecting all the puzzle pieces. do not buy this game. the only thing they did well is tell the story of the movie and the books but overall it's not worth the money

    It is a somewhat interesting game but way to easy and babyish.

    The game was utterly boring, stupid, actionless, and easy, and I swear the last level made me go to sleep. Don't recommend: wasted $25 of my birthday $, and now I know why it's $25. This game sux.

    A very linear platform game. You have 3 characters and you can switch between them. The whole presmise of the game is to encounter an obstacle in front of an important item, then one of the kids comes up with an idea using different obscure household items as a new invention to get around the obstacle to get their item. It's this pattern all the way through. They use voice acting directlyA very linear platform game. You have 3 characters and you can switch between them.

It's this pattern all the way through. They use voice acting directly from the movie. I got tired of it relatively quickly. This game wasn't for me… Expand

    Yes it was too short. and easy but does that make it bad? NO! The game is still enjoyable to me. I enjoyed most of the missions/quests especially the piano part. A 5.7 user score and a 62 critic score(as of this review) is too low . It deserves a 7.5-8 at least and a critic score of 80. Only my opinion though I thought people will enjoy this game.

    When even a game's manual asks, "Wouldn't you rather play something else?" consider taking the hint. [Feb 2005, p.83]

    It’s one of the best children-oriented titles to arrive in years.

    All the timed events, amusing physics-based puzzles, likeable characters, and strange contraptions will be a treat for fans of the books and movie.
