5.0 out of 5 stars Disney-Pixar's Ratatouille, July 15, 2007

A Kid's Review

= Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: Ratatouille (CD-ROM)

The Ratatouille PC game is really fun. There are six levels and plenty of interesting mini-games. The game doesn't follow the storyline of the movie, but it is still fun to play. Many of the actors from the film voice their characters, including Patton Oswalt as Remy, and Lou Ramono as Linguini.The only downside is that the game is sort of difficult, considering it's meant for kids to play, and the instructions are vague. For Example: For most of the activities in the game, you need to use the Context Move button, but they don't mention in the game itself or the booklet exactly what button on the keyboard that is. After much expirimentation, i discovered it was the G Button. Aside from that, it's a very cute game.

This review is from: Ratatouille (CD-ROM)

I agree with the other reviewers that it takes some experimentation to find the "Context Move" and other command buttons. It's as if someone took their original programming terminology directly to the user manual. It's not your typical mouse (no pun intended) and directional arrows computer game such as those found on Nick Jr and Noggin, so I improvised to help my daughter get used to the new controls. I used cut-up blank address labels to label main keys used in the game. After a short learning curve, she caught on and was on her way through the streets of Paris. Once you get used to using the keys and understanding the "language" used in the on-screen instructions, it becomes a fun and clever game that complements the movie well. Depending on your child's age, there is some game play that's challenging and requires grown-up assistance or four hands (eg, running, jumping, action buttons).

Just remember:

Context Move = "G" key - used for ANY action such as a tail swing, pick up an item, drop item, swing an object, grab onto netting, landing on narrow objects that are twinkling in blue such as a post, shutter handle, or high wire.

The mouse can also be used for camera angles.

You can reprogram the keys as you see fit when you first launch the program. If you want to make things really easy, buy a compatible PC/Mac game controller so that "Anyone Can Cook!"

4.0 out of 5 stars Puzzling game, July 29, 2008

A Kid's Review

= Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: Ratatouille (CD-ROM)

I thought this game was going to be perfect. It is not perfect. You have to figure out some controls in this game. Here are the list of the controls you need to know:

Context Move Button- "G"
Minigame Action left button- "U"
Minigame Action right button- "I"

i figured out all of these controls quicky. The graphics,the gameplay,and the dreamworlds were great.The gameplay can be a little difficult. The dreamworlds were so unique because some of them were based on foods like fruit and meats. They are also based on dishes and other kitchen products. BUY THIS GAME!!
