KEY POINTS:
THE SPIDERWICK CHRONICLES
Xbox 360, G
Herald Rating: * *
Pros
Very accessible for kids and the mix of fantasy and real life is well executed graphics-wise.
Cons
The game is basically one long, dull treasure hunt with the occasional goblin appearing to break the monotony. The mechanics of the gameplay are clunky.
Verdict
An uninspired effort sprinkled with the stardust of a Hollywood production but also the soullessness that goes with it.
