What parents need to know
Parents need to know that this game is based on the movie of the same name. Kids can play as four of the main characters. Gameplay is quite varied, but a relatively small portion of it does involve combat, such as defeating lizards and scorpions, knocking down humans by spitting candy at them, and ramming your truck into another truck to get it to drop its cargo.
Educational value:

Violence:
Combat doesn't have a big role in the game, but there are still the occasional enemies to be dispatched. Examples include Melman headbashing moles, Alex roaring at birds to scatter them, squirrels being launched out of slingshots, fruits being launched at scorpions to clear them out of the way, and a penguin shooting candy out of its mouth to knock down humans. One mini-game involves repeatedly ramming a truck as you pursue it down the road.
