6-Review
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is the game, which has been made in
connection with very enjoyable movie of the same name. Don’t be fooled into
thinking that the game will be as good as the movie. The game is a complete
piece of crap and should be avoided at all costs.

Game Play:
1/10
The game play of Charlie and the chocolate factory is very dated and boring.
The game features a lot of mini-games, puzzles etc. While this is a good thing
in most cases, this game makes you want to cry. The mini-games will give you
some of the most boring moments of your life. Some of the mini-games are sheer
frustrating. Which is quite surprising as the game is supposedly meant for
young children, who can’t handle these types of frustrations. Poor level
design, boring objectives and frustrating mini-games make for a game play
experience that you can never forget. (Meant in a Negative Manner).

Graphics:
1/10
If I were given the task of summarizing the graphics of this game in one word,
I’d say CRAP! The graphics are so bad that they’ll make you think that the
play-station one isn’t so dated after all. The graphics look like as if they
were programmed in the late nineties. The character detail, environments etc
are of extremely low quality. It looks as if a schoolboy programmed them.
The FMV sequences are the only good thing about the graphics of the game.

Audio:
5/10
The audio is the only satisfactory thing about the game. The voice acting is
well done, although I would have liked Johnny Depp to lend his part as well.
But James Taylor does a decent job. The music of the game is acceptable and
not boring most of the time. In fact, we should have gotten the option of
closing the game and just listening to the music (Provided we DIDN’T have
anything else to do).

Overall Score:
2.3/10
Overall it looks like that the game was rushed into the production house. The
game features absolutely no fun elements, everything is boring most of the
time and to add insult to the injury; it’s extremely frustrating at times.
This is a game that won’t appeal to the young children or to the fans of the
movie. Avoid this game at all costs.
