Oddly, the actual hack-and-slash component of The Chronicles of Narnia is extremely addictive, and struggling to form powerful ‘team up’ partnerships amid the madness of battle does provide moments of extreme satisfaction as attending enemies are swiftly defeated—only to be replaced by willing hordes in a matter of seconds. But, stacked against the pleasingly immersion-friendly fighting mechanics are a restrictive camera, lackluster sound, fractured A.I., and shamefully substandard graphics. The Chronicles of Narnia should perhaps only be recommended to those players faithfully attached to the C. S. Lewis source material, or those die-hard hack-and-slash fans who simply can’t help themselves.
