MY DAUGHTER LOVES THIS GAMEAug 23, 2008
By K. Ormond
"simommy"
My daughter is 9 and she loved the movie, so I figured she might like the DS Game and indeed she did! I love that she was not able to get through the end of the game immediately, it took her a few weeks and she really loves starting it over even more than the first time, so it definitely keeps her engaged.

For the KidsJan 26, 2009
By Alicia Matheson As an adult who loved the movie Enchanted, I was rather disappointed by this game. I loved the music from the movie, so when the game's 8-bit rendition of "True Love's Kiss" was played for the entire game, it kind of made me want to rip my ears off. The game play is mildly engaging, although the explanations of what you need to do were sometimes lacking. The re-play value is slight, at best. I hated playing as Edward, because he is really slow! And his battles are PAINFULLY repetitive. And then once Giselle gains his sword, she becomes as slow as he is.
I don't doubt that this game is entertaining for kids, I'm just sad that the entertainment doesn't necessarily extend to adults. Or at least, THIS adult. If you buy this game for a child, be aware of the music horror and you may want to invest in some headphones for the kid as well.

An enchanted adventureJan 12, 2009
By Ariel Grimm
"xo"
I got this game and let me tell you, it's actually good. It's based on the movie Enchanted which I love because I feel it is a metaphor of fantasy and reality blending. Which is what my whole philosophy of life just happens to be about. I really liked how you could go through New York City and explore Central Park, I've never been there. You get various power animals that you can call on to help you with things, I really love how deeply, dare I say, pagan the whole concept of the game is. For example, the game incorporates the stylus ( I prefer the term "magic wand") into an interactive experience where you have to trace an exact pattern...just like when wizards have to copy their symbols for magical workings...this is a good game for magical practice!
