What It Is

Finding Nemo, the Disney Pixar animated film about life along the Great Barrier Reef made a huge splash at the box office in its opening weekend and is now swimming into home game systems everywhere. Nemo is little clownfish who disobeys his father, Marlin, on the first day of school and Marlin along with his friend Dory must overcome all sorts of obstacles to bring Nemo home safely.


Why It’s Fun

Finding Nemo, the video game brings all the excitement and adventure of the movie to your home game system. The graphics are a superb recreation of the look of the movie. The great thing about games based on computer-animated movies is that the game’s graphics are often nearly perfect recreations of the movie’s animations. This gives gamers a great opportunity to interact with some of their favorite movie characters and expand on the movie’s action and adventure.


Who’s Going To Love It

Many Disney Pixar movies appeal to audiences of all ages, adults included, and Finding Nemo will undoubtedly have the same mass appeal. The game, however, is definitely geared towards a younger audience and the simple action and story will not appeal to older kids. Young fans of the movie will really enjoy diving into this game and playing through the underwater adventure.


What To Be Aware Of

Finding Nemo, the game, has a teamwork feature where Nemo, Marlin and Dory have to work together to complete the level. During this level, game players can tag between the three and use their different sizes and strengths to clear obstacles.
