Along with the third Ice Age movie comes an associated video game. Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs. Aimed at younger gamers, it provides a challenging and entertaining selection of platform-action gameplay styles. For the first time in an Ice Age game, players can choose to take control of any one of six favourite characters from the movie including Scrat, Manny the Mammoth, Sid the Sloth and Diego the Sabre Toothed Tiger. Other characters from the Hollywood film pop in to give players useful hints and tips. The characters are voiced by the same actors who play them in the movie. Each playable character has different capabilities and strengths, and can use their particular abilities to complete each level. The characters also have different gameplay styles, from platform hunt-and-collect games, to chase-and-dodge-style games. During each level there are juicy, fruity pick-ups to collect. These are either laying around the level, or can be created by rolling over creatures or hitting plants and items of landscape. The game also involves some combat. Another first for Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs is the multi-player feature that enables users to challenge friends and family to compete in a selection of mini-games.

Ice Age 3

[Highly rated reviewer]

A fun but short (6 Hours) game , Very easy for Trophy points.

Not worth a purchase but worth a rent

Not all voices are the same from the film, but apart from that a good game seaming as it's based on a movie, and we all know how bad they normally are.

Fun level builder

By ShellBells (2 reviews) from Milton Keynes , 30 Sep 2011

This a good game if you are trying to platinum and level up on PS3, we completed it the first time in just 4 1/2 hours without any major wobblies, some of the multiplayer levels can become tedious quite quickly but it was enjoyable at the same time. Not a bad game off the back of a rushed film!
