The question you have to ask yourself is this: "How much does my kid love Shrek?" If your son or daughter is in love with the ogre, turning into a hysterical, shaking, yelling pile of child every time they catch sight of the character, then this game will appease them regardless. If your pre-teen is, by some miracle, a measured, rational human being, or if they simply cuddle up at night with a different franchise, then they'd be better served by something, else.

I know a lot of people that played Avatar just to get the 1k gamer points in about 10 min.
