You can save the game in progress, but with the linear storyline, it's hard to know how far back you need to retrace your steps in order to figure out what you should have done to survive whatever killed you. I don't believe that the real joy of gaming is beating the game. Game is very simple to play, but the world is complicated enough to require a strong sense of strategy. Minimal system requirements. Strong fantasy plotline and G-rated violence makes it suitable for kids.
Animations appear washed out and are often simplistic or cartoonish.
Graphically, game doesn't live up to what the box art promises. Rigid, limited storyline eliminates replay value. MGL recommends games rated 4.0 and higher.
