    The enviroments were very detailed and similar to the movie, I was impressed by the difference between the two 'worlds'. The sound was great, real voices from the movie and similar background music that sounds really pretty. The mini games weren't all that bad, but some were frustrating (balancing) by the confusing controls.

Scenes which can't be played are shown as narrated storyboards which gives you the feel your having it read out of a book. The feature is OK, but some exciting scenes are cut short on the storyboard and I would have much rather played through them or watched them. A Coraline Movie fan would love this game and not mind the bad points, otherwise if you havn't seen the movie or didn't like it that much, Id let this one pass...… Expand

    Love the movie. the game follows true to the movie. Graphic was good. Sound and voice were excellent. Gameplay are slow but good mechanic. they really tried hard to create the same feel as the movie.

    The other versions of this game aren't good but the wii one I love. The graphics are good and controls are great. I wouldn't really recommend this game cause it is underrated but it is way better than the other versions.

    If you value quality software, whether designed for adults or for kids, this title is your mortal enemy. It reeks of dated gameplay design ideals, loses nearly all the substance and style of the book and movie respectively, is too difficult at points for kids, and is too short for your money. Never mind the fact that if you're as unlucky as me, you'll encounter a crash bug that prevents you from completing the experience.

    The best thing I can say about Coraline is that it’s not broken. It works, and just about anyone could play it from start to finish, but I don’t understand why anyone would want to.

    It's too bad the play mechanics are not more engaging, especially given the potential of the Wii-motion controls. But as is, the range of mini-missions and quests you lead the precocious Coraline through will feel familiar to anyone who's played any number of average film-tied titles.
