Product Description

From the Manufacturer

For the first time ever, the Dr. Seuss' The Cat in the Hat video game will allow gamers to step into the role of the mischievous Cat and interact with characters from the film like Thing 1, Thing 2 and the Fish, as well as encounter opponents created specifically for the game. Unique gameplay abilities, including the Umbrella Glide, the Hat-Shield Bounce and the Bubble Goo Gadget, help players to navigate through thirteen wild levels in a wacky Seussian world.

Inspired by the film, the video game tells the story of Conrad, a young boy tricked by his neighbor, Mr. Quinn, into opening the Cat's big red box of Seussian magic, allowing it to escape into the real world. The Cat must help Conrad and his sister, Sally, return the Seussian magic to the box and retrieve all three pieces of the "Crab Lock" in order to lock the box for good. Players will also get the unique chance to explore a world beyond the film, as they navigate through rooms of the house that are not seen in the movie.

Features:

• Original Dr. Seuss Enemies created specifically for the game
• Interact with classic Seuss characters from the film such as the rambunctious Thing 1 and Thing 2 and the pessimistic Fish
• A great introduction to action adventure games for kids 6-12 in a non-violent setting
• Layered gameplay that is easy for kids to pick up and play and complex combinations of simple moves that entertain and challenge seasoned gamers
• Use the Cat's umbrella to float across chasms, shield from attacks, and capture enemies and goo-booms and target them anywhere in 3D to hit other enemies, open doors, or break through walls
• The central house hub let's players choose the level they tackle first, allowing different outcomes and which level opens next

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Dr. Seuss' The Cat in the Hat (Video Game)

I'm 7 years old and this is a real cool game. It is frustrating when you die, but you only have to go back to the last checkpoint or the last tunnel. The bonus worlds are fun and if you get hurt during a bonus world you do not have any health missing. It is not all like the movie because the fish helps you and thing one and thing two stole the bonus world keys. You have to think about how to get past some crates of goo. You have to fight 3 bosses in this game which are Quinn's big machine (powered by the crablock and needed to the cat to close the main crate full of goo). This game is a great game and I fully reccomend it to you.

This review is from: Dr. Seuss' The Cat in the Hat (Video Game)

This game is just right for a kid or a video game-challenged adult like me! It is not hard to navigate and the Cat doesn't "fly" across the screen so you can't see where you are going, but is still entertaining enough to keep your attention.
