    Overall, Rise of the Guardians doesn't bring anything new or exciting to the table. While the game's difficulty level is at a decent standard for younger gamers and the implementation of the upgrade system has been done well, there's not enough in the overall package to justify purchasing the game. This is one to avoid.

    The younger ones may even feel captivated for some time but they should not endure something so boring for long.

    Do you enjoy reading a book and unlocking Achievements at the same time? Rise of the Guardians is the game for you. It lacks variation, finesse and any kind of challenge. If you enjoy the movie, stay clear. Actually, if you enjoy video games at all: stay clear.

    The developers deserve praise for creating a different kind of movie game, and the kids can have fun with it for a short while. Sadly it still quickly becomes incredibly boring from the lack of any challenge what so ever.

    Sails beneath already low expectations. [Jan 2013, p.91]

    Sadly lacking in depth, so much so in fact that you can literally play most of it with your eyes closed.
