Fidelity
The 2005 action game is based on the film adaptation of Lewis's novel. Traveller's Tales handled consoles and PC; Amaze handled the handhelds. It shipped for GameCube, Windows, Xbox, PlayStation 2, DS, and Game Boy Advance. Several film actors reprise their roles.
Read first?
01
When to read first
Read the book first. It is short, and this game follows the film of it.
02
When playing first is fine
Play first only if the story is already familiar and you want the 2005 tie-in. It is not a separate Narnia tale.
03
Why
Film tie-ins inherit the book's plot at one remove. The remove does not save the surprises.
