DESCRIPTION

A hidden world of "fantastical creatures" is revealed in this adaptation of the best-selling book series and 2008 movie from Paramount Pictures and Nickelodeon Films. After opening a dusty tome written by his great, great uncle, young Jared Grace suddenly becomes privy to a world filled with goblins, sprites, "brownies," and more. The family soon finds themselves in perilous danger when an ogre named Mulgarath learns of the fabled book and vows to stop at nothing to acquire it. The video game adaptation closely follows the events of the film. Players will switch between multiple characters to take advantage of each individual's special abilities while exploring 3D environments and battling Mulgarath's insidious army. The Spiderwick Chronicles is veteran developer Stormfront Studios' first game since 2006's Eragon. ~ Scott Alan Marriott, All Game Guide
