 Way To Short July 7, 2006

This game may look good on the cover, but it can be finished within 2-3 hours. Graphics are not realistic, neither are the sound effects. The battle parts are 'okay' but not at all realistic. I was very disappointed with it. Return of the King GBA game is a much better use of money. It's cheaper too. br /br /It has many "chapters" that are not in either the book, or the movie (both of which I enjoy). I traded this game in for The Third Age, which is an awesome game. Save your money, get Return of the King.
 Mediocre game, short, too easy, and boring. June 5, 2006

First of all, I do like Narnia, the books and movie and all. I think this game doesn't do it any justice and a person who is just being introduced to Narnia may conclude that they don't like it just because they played this game. If you are a child under the age of ten, you may find this game much more exciting.br /br /This game is about 3 hours long, maybe less. It is nothing like real Narnia, and is far too easy. You play as the different characters Ed, Susan, Peter, and Lucy, and each have their own way of attacking. It runs much like Spyro, which is neither side-scrolling, perspective, or first person.br /br /Edmund punches at first, Lucy kicks (very ineffectively), Susan throws snowballs (what is that gonna do?) and Peter hits with a stick. Peter can kill any enemy almost instantly, but when he gets a sword it is LESS effective!br /br /The game tries to follow the storyline, but goes off on its own paths sometimes, which can be incredibly boring. Since when did Edmund have to climb cliffs to reach the [Witch]'s castle? (P.S. Amazon won't let me write [witch] for real! But this is Narnia, the Lion, the [WITCH!!!] and the Wardrobe) Also, it follows some parts it shouldn't, such as Lucy and Aslan unmelting the creatures in the castle. That is a long, boring chapter.br /br /And here is a warning to anyone who would buy this: If you find the squirrel's heirloom and then save the game and turn your unit off before the next chapter, when you begin to play again you will have to look for the heirloom again, but it won't exist anymore! Therefore you must begin the entire game over to get any further (it happened to me, anyone else happen to save the game at a horrible time?).br /br /Overall, the game gets a little better as you progress into the un-snowy lands, but again it is simply too short. If you really want to spend money on this game, wait and spend as little as possible because you won't be enjoying it for more than a few hours. It could be a good game if there were more ideas involved, it was much longer, and more adventurous (and less easy to get lost in the snowy regions).br /br /The enemies are very easy to defeat, especially the wolves when you play as Peter (and no, you can't choose who to play as). There are tiny goblins, big goblins, minotaurs, and almost every other enemy you saw in the movie. The White [Witch] Jadis IS easy to defeat, especially because you can stop every ten seconds and fully replenish your health!br /br /One last bit is about the sound. The music is sleepy and dumb, it is not from the movie or anything, and only makes the game worse.br /br /I have decided that if it were only a few dollars, it would be a better game, but it doesn't give you much Narnia experience or realistic battles. If they made a longer, 3D first person version for Nintendo DS....
The Best Game Ever!!!!!!!! May 29, 2006

This is my absolute favorite game! My parents got it for me for Christmas and I was hooked! I've finished the game twice, almost three times now. Chapter 12 is really hard, and in Chapter 17 to defeat the Witch wait till she leans over, then do a Unified Face. Aslan will then come and (my friend says) bite her head off. It's not fair though, that Peter is the leader in eight of the chapters and Susan, Edmund, and Lucy only get to be the leader in three. I love this game!!!! :)
 I love Narnia, but May 8, 2006

After playing the PS2 version of Narnia I expected a close level of attention to this gameboy advance title; however, it seems it was slapped together very quickly. The game is very linear and plot elements are skimmed through so quickly; they miss some scenes from the book/movie. Graphics and sound are good, but the pevensies aren't drawn very well. If you get an item, leave the area, come back, the item is there again, so you can really stock up. Short game, and i wish it was more expansive and not so linear.
