Good game lots of action,the graphics are a little wierd but it's still fun, it's a little confusing at first though but you start to get the hang of it.

My 9 year old liked the game but thought they could have made it better. He said it was fun but too easy and after awhile a little boring. My 12 year old hated it and had no good words to say about it. He loved the book series and was very disappointed in the game. Very young age game.

Ok, I absolutely LOVED the Percy Jackson books, and thought the Lightning Theif movie was pretty good. I bought the game thinking it was like the Harry Potter games, but found it to be more like Pokemon. You don't do anything except read and pick what "Action" to use when fighting enemies. You pick your character and pick an action to use. This is the whole game. It goes through the story of the Lightning Thief, but does not have any adventure to it at all. You don't even press a button to attack, for example, in the scene where Percy is fighting Annabeth, you don't even press A or anything to swing Riptide at her. You simply choose your action on the screen. The game is very repetitive and very very boring. I recommend this to people who like Pokemon games. Otherwise, don't waste your money.

My son really enjoyed playing The Lightning Thief. Once he started it was hard for him to put down. The only negative is that he seemed to finish it kind of quickly compared to other games he's played on his Nintendo DS. So I guess Lightning Thief isn't as challenging as some games but overall is fun to play.

I purchased this for my grandaughter who is eleven. she said it doesn,t show instructions on how to play it. The graphics are cartoon like.

don't get suckered in to buying this game. it was again rushed to the market to capitalize on the popularity of the movie. a typical well playing games takes 18 months to 2 years to make it to the market but with a lot of these rush to market games it is just the basic sequences played with some familiar characters. it took my 9 year old about 5 hours to play through the entire game.

Hi I bought the new Percy Jackson game it is awesome great graphics, great plot of the game and i loved the fights. It is definitely one of the best games I've played and i played a lot a games. To sum this game up it could make into the top 10 maybe 5 games . If you buy this you will get what you payed for . P.S. buy this game

i bought this game for my nephew for Christmas. He's a big fan of the author Riordan. So with the tie in to his love of the books and video gaming, I got him this one. He says it's not too difficult, but he is whiz at these games (what 12 year old isn't) He's already gone through the game once, but he's going back to collect items. i like that it's entertained him for awhile.

"It would be better if there were some actual explorations. There's nothing but fighting." So says my 15yo Percy Jackson lover, who also decided on the number of stars.

On the plus side, she does love the game, even though she had expected not to because it was a movie tie-in and these games are notoriously bad.

This was for my nephew. He loved the books, so when he received this, he played with it for hours.
