Decent

By Grummy (sofacinema.co.uk) Read the full review

Not too bad at all actually. Very easy and very short, but it doesn't suffer from unexpected difficulty spikes that plague most of the kids games. It looks pretty good, not the best in the world, but not awful by any stretch of the imagination, also,...

Not Bad

By A Customer (sofacinema.co.uk) Read the full review

A surprisingly good game that is reasonably entertaining and gives regular Achievement points on the 360 version. The main complaint about it is that it is sometimes unclear as to what you have to do. My advice is to play this with a friend or your...

As dull as expected

By William Brown (sofacinema.co.uk) Read the full review

Should've known better.Like so many games of films it just doesn't have any ideas at all. It stretches out everything to incredible length as if making something take a while and making the levels take an age will improve things - obviously the very...

Will this let you relive the magic of Narnia?

The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian

By Richard Bright (play.tm)

Whether it is a fat panda, a lonely robot or a guy in armour with a sword, I'm sure most of us over a certain age get bored very quickly with the marketing blitz that accompanies each and every release of a kids' film these days. And of course along...

Finally there are a few mini-games hidden that are unlocked by performing certain tasks in-game - there are four and each task is fairly obvious. Shoot that big sparkly target, et al

I've been taking a look at the PS3 version of the game, although name the console and there is of course a version for you.

The Chronicles Of Narnia: Prince Caspian

By David McComb (empireonline.com)

Having gifted gamers with the sublime Lego Star Wars – possibly the only console franchise to unite both young and old players – approaching Traveller’s Tales' latest trip to Narnia isn't as gut-wrenchingly bleak as most movie spin-offs. All the...

The Chronicles Of Narnia: Prince Caspian

By Tom Ramsbottom (gamebosh.com)

The Lord of the Rings trilogy were always aimed at a mature audience (have you ever tried to read one? It takes fifty pages just for someone to have breakfast!) but Tolkien's brother in arms C.S. Lewis appealed more directly to the child in all of us...

Take control of any character in your group ; Follows the plot of the movie closely ; Lots of movie clips

Basic fighting moves ; Lousy single camera angle ; Bland, stupid enemies ; Not always clear where you should be going

The camera is fixed and moves automatically, which means you're often stuck looking into a wall and can't see what's in front of you until you walk toward it. Alas, Prince Caspian is an average movie companion game with very basic fighting, and simple...

So with the success of the second film, Prince Caspian, along comes another in a long line of movie/game adaptations.

The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian (DS)

By (cnet.com)

The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian is a light role-playing game for the Nintendo DS based on the movie of the same name. Though it employs interesting timing-based combat mechanics, its repetitive battles, short play time, bad graphics, and...

Due to its uneven difficulty and lackluster version of the Prince Caspian tale, this game cannot be recommended for children. Its repetitive nature and poor pacing will likely bore adults as well.

The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian

By Alex Kidman (cnet.com.au)

Prince Caspian is a good advertisement for the accompanying movie, but it's an overly repetitive game. We'll be sticking to the much-loved book, thanks.

Large variety of playable characters ; Reepicheep

Overly simplistic ; Repetitive

Die-hard CS Lewis fans would undoubtedly gain more enjoyment from a decent, leather-bound set of the books, while younger fans of the movie may get some enjoyment from Prince Caspian — but it's enjoyment that's not likely to last very long.

Can you say camera angles?

The killer to all this is in the manual it says the right analog stick is for CAMERA CONTROL! This is only partially true. Trying to change the camera
