Ice Age 3: Dawn of the Dinosaurs (Xbox 360)

Review by Katie Smith aged 11

Scrat, Sid, Manny and Diego are back with yet another adventure and with the film riding high at the box-office we have the inevitable multi format tie-in. We asked 11-year-old Katie Smith to tell us what she thought of the game. Here's what she had to say.

The game is based on the new film and sees you play as all the characters as you work through the different levels in dinosaur land.

The aim of the game is to complete all the levels and collect as many jewels and fruits as possible.

You have to fight and bash your way past loads of characters along the way and you can talk and interact with many characters like the twin otters who help you and tell you what to do.

The story-mode is great fun to play and you can also play multi-player if you wish, when you want a break from the main game there is a good mini-game section that is a lot of fun.

The game gets harder as you go on and you can find your own way around the cave after a few levels.

The graphics are excellent and the game makes you feel like you are actually in a cartoon, I would recommend the game to anybody who likes figuring things out because there are some great puzzles.
