I have the Playstation 2 version of this game and I like it. It does have some levels that will be a bit difficult for kids to go through, but a kid above the age of 7 will most likely be able to go through these levels fairly easily. Plus, the mini-games (which are Mini-golf, Shuffleboard, and Lemur Rave) are really fun and have a multiplayer option, so kids can play alone or with friends. Violence: Some cartoonish violence and Alex attempts to eat Mort in one challenge. Also, the final level has a battle with a strong fossa that might be a little bit scary to younger/sensitive kids. But nothing graphic is shown, and nobody gets seriously hurt. Consumerism: Based off the popular movie of the same name, so kids might want to see it after playing this game.
