A good game, wich starts very easy but let you shout out from frustration sometimes through the game.
Here's my opinion. Lets first say that i beat this game today, after some very frustrating moments. This was not because of camera issues, or bad AI, no. This game is way damn hard some times.
First, you start at your home in London. No big deal, as it say so. Indeed, you must search for your partners, or lets say, brothers and sisters, which will aid you through the rest of the game. After that, your mom takes you to a shelter, and then a cut scene is shown where you've been set on a train, to a disgusting aunt.
Okay, enough spoilers now. Lets focus on the main thing.
After that first intro level, you can select any level you wish, but, as always with level select games, you can only join, if you complete the previous one, or if you beat the game. But the nice thing is, that every level shows you a short cut scene of whats happening. Maybe not nice to you all, but for me, this was handy.
After rushing through the first easy levels( don't forget to attack every single object you see, like tables, chairs, harnesses, and so forth) the game gets interesting for a novice player. It's a bit like a combination of an adventure, and an action game for kids. Kill some wolves, hide for your aunt, kill some bats, and finally, or should i say, when you start, you discover the wardrobe after you have started a hide and seek game. When in Narnia, you discover that only Lucy is there, but after a while, Edmund is joining her there. But im typing a bit spoilers again, so i won't do that for now.
Rushing through the levels as i say, i came to the first boss. This was not that hard, but it was confusing a bit. But, believe me, this was only the beginning.
After that boss-fight, it becomes a lot more difficult. Even a few levels later, i began shouting at my screen, and throwing some things through my room, because it was way damn hard. But, after getting on again, and getting on again, and getting on again, and many times dying, i came to the last boss, which was in my opinion not the most difficult boss, but the most frustrating one, which makes it difficult. She(I wont say more) can only be hit, by a series of combo's. Lucky was it that the same pattern must repeat 3 times. Thank heaven for that. But as i say, to get at this point. You must be a die hard gamer, and a fan of hack and slash to get there. And even then, its frustrating.
Finally after a hour or 11, i beat the game. I've played non stop.
Okay, here are some other things. The game is made to be played by one or two players at the same time, you can switch between characters and this is even an essential point. In the meantime that you play levels, you must collect shields, and statues, and especially for the statues, they are essential. Really!
There is also an opportunity to collect coins, which can be traded to get more skills. All with all is this nicely done, and you wont get bad things for ramming on your keyboard and mouse, and shouting at everything, cause there is a reward for 100% completion (look at the bottom of the wardrobe).
Conclusion is that the game is good, it follows the story pretty well, the dialogue is good again. The cut scenes are from the real film, and there is a reward system. But, at sometimes the game is WAY, WAY damn hard. Not nice. But overall, good!

And again, i say that it's a good game, but too hard at some points!
