"It seems like such an easy thing to do for a game like Brave -- assume that the name will be a reflection of qualities seen in its gameplay. Such a name could hint an air of firmness, steadiness, and courage; courage, say, to potentially break free from a set mold. But you understand this could also be a misguided focal point for setting up expectations. Consider for a moment, though, that the Latin root for 'courage' actually means 'heart'. How ironic it is, then, that this is the very thing the game lacks. Going against its predisposition, Brave: The Video Game cowardly crawls into an established shell and never presents anything truly effectual in its design. The resulting experience is one that will by no means stick in your mind as an example of anything substantial." -- Wiiloveit.com

Naturally this will mostly appeal to those who enjoyed the film, a medieval fairytale set in mythical Scotland, and places players in the role of feisty female protagonist Merida, a skilled archer, who journeys to remove a curse afflicting her mother that she herself is responsible for causing.
Brave is just another mediocre movie based game
Brash Games writes "Brave? Sadly not. While Behaviour Interactive has certainly delivered a solid if unspectacular take on Disney/Pixar’s rather enchanting tale of a rebellious Scottish princess, the final product is more than a little derivative".
