I am new to the Wii games & this was one of my 1st purchases. It's a very fun game if you like solving puzzles, quests and adventures. Lots of Wii Controler usage as you battle the goblins. You can always refer to the field guide if you're not sure what to do next. Sometimes frustrating when you can't get through a certain point - but rewarding once you do! Highly recommend this game! Lots of fun!

I'm an adult woman with no children who didn't see the movie but loves puzzle oriented, role-playing games. This game is extremely interesting. I'm still at the beginning (Ch.3) but so far this game is great. I was initially disappointed with the way you interact with objects (point and click Wii remote) but after a few minutes, I began to appreciate the fact that action items are clearly marked. There is so much to do and so many things to remember. You find a lot of items early. You know that you will need them in the future; but, you aren't able to acquire them until you actually need them; thus, you have to remember where they are so you can come back and get them later. Also, you have to play as various different characters. This is not optional which seemed undesirable at first but it turns out that this is one of the things that makes the game surprising. Just when you are getting the hang of your character's personality and controls, you have to switch to another character. It forces you to look at things from a different perspective even if it is the same object you looked at a few minutes before while playing another character. Although the cover and introduction seems very dark, there doesn't seem to be any blood and gore which I really appreciate. When goblins are killed, they burst like water balloons and leave sparkly glass teeth behind that kind of resembles jewels. The bottom line here is that I really like this game.

5.0 out of 5 stars For puzzle lovers, Hours and hours of fun, June 22, 2008

Bought this for my son but I (and sometimes my teenage daughter) end up playing/solving the game with him. This game relies on instinct and requires a great deal of patience to figure out the next move. For some, it will be frustrating as you will need to repeat the task from "checkpoint" several times until you get it right, but hang in there. It's rewarding to be able to finish a task. Always consult the guidebook that will appear whenever you press the + sign.
