Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs is very sharp, lighthearted and fun game that will please younger fans of the movie with its varied gameplay, good looks and clever writing. A recommended purchase for fans of the movie.

Cheat Code Central

There are plenty of fun movie-inspired platforming levels, and the unlockable multiplayer modes certainly add some replay value. If you or someone you know loves the Ice Age franchise, then this game will certainly please fans without giving them too much of a challenge.

IGN

I personally enjoyed the variety of gameplay and chasing the the best times in the challenge modes, but I wouldn't recommend this to anyone but an Ice Age super-fan under the age of 10.

This is a very fun and accessible title, but only for children.

GameStar

Even though Ice Age 3 is definitely targeting a very young audience, it is still fun to jump through the levels. But it lacks the funny bits – except for Scrat – and the story of the movie. Still, it's one of the better licensed games out there and probably worth a try if you're looking for a game for the kids.
