Frustrating but some fun for fans of the show [Posted on 2006-12-29]
I purchased this for my 9-year-old son. He loves the show and was excited to load this on the PC and dive right in. He did enjoy the game but one level was very differet in terms of difficulty and most of that due to poor design and inadequate documentation. The interface is distant third person and resembles a console game shoved into a PC environment.

There is a surprising lack of help to be had on the Internet as apparently most fans of the show opted to purchase a console version of the game, leaving little or no public information to help frustrated gamers who happen upon the North Siege level.

At any rate, with my help over a couple of days, we figured out the frustrating level and my son finished the final chapter in less than an additional hour.

My advice: buy the PS2, Xbox or Gamecube version.

A little bit dissapointing [Posted on 2007-06-27]
If you are an Avatar fan, you will find this game as something rare to collect, like the DVD Books, but far from than I found it really dissapointing. I hoped that it ressembles in any way the GAMECUBE version, but it doesn't. The graphics could be improved, greatly improved. I gave a 3 stars because I like to collect Avatar stuff and basically this is a kid's game (my brother, who is 7 seven years old) liked it, and it is unfair to punish the game's rate, but dont expect too much if you are older. I think that THQ could do a better job.

It Could Be Better [Posted on 2007-10-31]
My grandchildren are such big fans of Avatar they haven't noticed the 10 year old game design technology used to create this program. Although published in 2006 the game reminds me of Atari's Missle Command and other simple games created 10-15 years ago, just more eye appealing. Low budget game design is a thing of the past and doomed to financial failure. I'm glad it only cost $10 because that's all it's worth.

So here's the challenge: THQ, give it up! Give the Avatar game software franchise to a company that will put the time and effort into creating a great game. Imagine an Avatar: The Last Air Bender by Electronic Arts with the game quality and fun of any of the Lord of the Rings series. Then imagine Avatar fans williness to pay $50 for a game worthy of our hard earned cash.
