Charlie and the Chocolate Factory

I chose this title on a whim because my Blockbuster return deal allowed movie OR video game rentals for free. I of course have a Gamecube, so the selection was devastatingly sparse. I came across Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and figured, "What the hey!" I will vouch for the remarkable set designing and creativity when it comes to the look of the game. I was impressed by the beauty.

However, the challenges were really not too challenging and rather predictable. I had endeared to another game ran along similar lines: Animaniacs: The Great Edgar Hunt, which took me a couple days to finish. This game took me an evening and and after noon to complete.

I don't fancy myself a hardened gamer, and to complete this game so quickly, I was a bit let down. This is really more for the target audience of the Gamecube, kids; young kids! It was nice to see the sets and a bit of variety and depth, but I didn't feel challenged.

*****Brilliant ****Good ***OK **Good effort but nowhere near brilliant *Play at your own risk 0/5 Can't describe how bad it is. Review: I did enjoy this game to be extremely honest, it wasn't really good i must admit the movie is much better than this. It is a good effort but I didn't like the fact because it didn't have Oompa Loompa songs in it. I liked the Oompa Loompa's in the movie (The new movie) and in this I was VERY disappointed about it. But it is a chocolaty surprise for me. Not as good as the movie but it is okay you should rent it first though... P.S: Has anyone else seen the cool videos in it after it says the chapters?***OK
