| Our 8 yr old loves this game, and our 11 yr old has enjoyed it, too. A good Wii-based-on-a-movie game. |
| Great co-op fun for the kiddies. | 2010-06-08 | 4 / 5 |

I played this to completion in co-op with my two boys (ages 7 and 9) and we had a great time. The co-op is done very well, with drop-in, drop-out gameplay like the Lego titles, but without the annoying camera issues of the pre-Indy 2 Lego games. It handles the two players on the same screen by keeping focus on player one and re-positioning player 2 to player 1's location if they're off screen too long. Also, the game is a little easier in co-op since you both have to die at approximately the same time for it to reset you to a checkpoint.
It was very short (4-5 hours), but very fun all the way through and we even managed to get all 1000 gamerscore during our play session. If you liked the movie, you should like the game too. If you can get this one cheap and enjoy Lego style, two player co-op, pick this up. |

| According to my son, this game is difficult to figure out. He loved the movie and sometimes I think it is difficult when movies are translated into DS games. |
| Cute, but short and a little hard in places | 2010-01-28 | 3 / 5 |

I rented this game for my four year old son, who is quite adept at gaming. It took less than ten hours playing time to beat the story, although we could have taken our time and added another hour or two by defeating every piece of food and unlocking some extras. But since I wasn't about to pay [...] for the game, I wanted him to beat it before sending it back.
The game is fairly straight-forward, kill the food, save the town. Most levels were easy enough for my son to navigate and defeat without help, but occasionally I did need to join in to help him out. My advice is to activate the second player (I call it a dog, my son informed me that it is Steve) even if no one is playing it, just in case the main character dies. If at least one player is alive, the second one will automatically come back to life. Otherwise, if you die, you start back at the checkpoint.
If this game was more reasonably priced, I would give it a higher rating. But at [...], I expect a lot more out of a game. The Lego franchise, for example, is priced lower and provides significantly more playing time. |

| My son loves the Wii, but some of the Mario games are too challenging for him. Cloudy With A Chance of Meatballs is very "playable" for someone of his age and skill-level. And his parents think it's pretty fun too! |
