My step-son bought this game for my 7 year old daughter. She loves it! As a matter of fact so do I! The part I like best about it is that she and I can play it together as "buddies". She likes that part best too! That makes it a lot of fun and we both laugh the whole time while we are playing it because we have so much fun and some of the things that happen in the game are funny. It's fairly easy to unlock different players so she gets a sense of accomplishment. The only thing I dont like is that all the levels are the same thing, but just different backgrounds instead of changing it up a little bit. But I would definately recommend this game for a young child- especially one like mine who is just starting out with video games.

Looking for a non-violent game for an older preschooler or early elementary schooler? This might be it!! Use the "buddy" system to play with your child and overcome hilarious (at least to kids) challenges together. Here's an even better idea from a kid. Play a real-life version of Scream Arena. Throw lightweight balls at each other and give each ball a role (slow motion ball, sneeze ball, keep-me-for-as-long-as-you-can ball, etc.). This is a super family video game!!

How to have a video game that is fun to play but does not involve killings and violence? DODGE BALL! A great premise! Goofy! Hilarious. The Monsters Inc. characters go at it trying to whack each other with progressively zanier balls in progressively more unusual. You talk about a GREAT game for my 5 year old to play. And with the ability to play 4 players, the whole family can get into the goofy act. These are the warm moments that you recall with warm cocoa by the fire, how your preschooler whacked you with the disco ball! Great great!
Dodge Ball, With a Twist November 12, 2003

I am not the type of person who normally enjoys playing video games, but Disney and Pixar's Monsters, Inc. Scream Arena was an absolutely adorable and enjoyable video game. While intended to be primarily a game for children, Monsters, Inc. Scream Arena is an enjoyable game for children of all ages as well as adults. pThe game starts out with a short clip from the movie Monsters, Inc. and then sends the player into Monstropolis, the city where all the monsters in the movie live. There are many different stages, each representing a scene from the movie, but in order to get into a particular scene the player must succeed at the preceding arenas. Once the player succeeds at one arena, the next arena is unlocked.pOnce the player has selected the scene that he or she desires to play, the next step is to choose which monster he or she wants to be. I should mention that the game can either be a single player game where the player competes with the game itself or it can be a multi-player game, where the players can either compete head to head with each other, or work together to defeat the game's monsters.pChoosing your monster is, in my opinion, the best part of the game. Nearly every monster, if not every monster, from the movie is able to be selected for use. Once the player has selected a monster, the monster will greet him or her by saying something along the lines of, Thanks for choosing me!pNot only does the monster speak, but it also acts in the same manner that he or she did in the movie. The player's monster is then placed into the arena you have chosen, and the game begins. Some examples of the arenas you can choose from are: Main Street, Mike and Sully's Apartment, the Lobby of the Monsters, Inc. Building, and Harry Hausens, the restaurant in the movie.pMy favorite arena is the one at the Chinese Restaurant. In this scene, like all the other scenes, the object is to hit the other monsters with balls while your monster avoids being hit. The twist in this room is that there's a disco ball. Every time a monster is hit, he or she is frozen in that spot and begins to disco dance, giving the other monsters a better chance of hitting him or her.pNot only is this game adorable, but it is very fun to play. I would highly recommend that if you have access to a Nintendo Game Cube, you rent Monsters, Inc. Scream Arena and play it with your friends. When I played it with my friends, we played for numerous hours every day we had the game, and never once got bored or tired of playing. Hopefully you will find Monsters, Inc. Scream Arena as enjoyable as I did.
