Product Description

The gameplay will evolve as the animal's age over eleven stages that take the player from snowy mountains, across turbulent ice sheets that are ravaged by blizzards, and into the frigid oceans that are patrolled by deadly killer whales. The stages alternate between free-roaming areas containing several mini-games to travel zones, which involve the player taking actions to get from one area to another. The travel zones could be anything from descending a cliff face from the mountains to the ice sheets below or surviving in the open ocean as a storm rages around you.

I bought this game for my daughter. You can be several characters, including the little bear, a fox, a walrus and maybe some others. Once you pick your character, you just kinda wander around the ice and water, keeping away from the "bad guys." It's a cute game, easy for my 6yr old to play - she loved the little animals, you can switch at any time, by going into a cave, even in the middle of the game. Good buy for a younger player, that isn't familiar with the DS yet - great beginner game!

I purchased this game for my children when it was released. I have 3 children 4, 6, and 8 and they have ALL enjoyed this game on the DS. Im selling as all the children have completed the game and have moved on to other games they recieved for christmas, however, i do recommend this one for all the young players out there....
