This game is a gem cause I really really love this game and I desire to buy it. I only rented it but I loved it, it was great. It's kinda easy at the beggining, but gets a little harder depending on how far you are just like most games, but for the win, I pretend to be one of the characters and act like I'm in the game kinda like acting like what their doing and it usally gets more easier. Much too violent for small children so they must keep out. I don't like susan's voice in the game because she sounds more like Anna Paquin playing Shiina in Castle in the sky and that's not her supposed acurate role. But anyway, I did like the game, could be good for an 8 year old to play. If you or your kids are fans of this movie, then rent this game they'll like it like i did.
