Rating: - Dark Alliance
I bought this game for my children.They really enjoyed the characters and game play.The only down point is the overall challenge.They beat the game in 3 days!Recommended for an exciting, but easy adventure.

- Fun game
This game is great fun if you are into RPG's. The only bad part is that the maximum number of players is two. I like to play with my three older kids and with this game two have to sit out and then switch. Other than that it's perfect and just hard enough to keep you engaged but not hard enough to stump you and frustrate everyone. Worth the money.
Rating: - Magical Fun

If you like wimpy over-head view games you'll like this one. The characters are so small they are almost undistinguishable from each other. The worlds are hard to find your way through.

Because the fun level is almost zero. You can play with a friend. And then both of you can get lost and not have fun.
