Coraline

"I liked the fact that there were so many mini-games that could be replayed separately from the game, but these alone cannot hold up the entire game. Also, only some of them are really cool to play, others are mediocre efforts at best. The only sometimes interesting gameplay, combined with the shortness of the entire game, brings us an only mildly interesting game. Parents will probably want to pass this one by."

"If your only goal in this life is to worship the Coraline franchise in all forms, you might find some redeeming value in D3 Publisher's videogame adaptations. But if you value quality software, whether designed for adults or for kids, this title is your mortal enemy. It reeks of dated gameplay design ideals, loses nearly all the substance and style of the book and movie respectively, is too difficult at points for kids, and is too short for your money. Never mind the fact that if you're as unlucky as me, you'll encounter a crash bug that prevents you from completing the experience. The movie's tag line is 'some doors should never be opened.' The game's should be ' some boxes should never be opened.'"
