Summary

The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe on Nintendo DS brings the film’s magic to a handheld adventure, even featuring William Moseley, Skandar Keynes, Anna Popplewell, Georgie Henley, Elizabeth Hawthorne and Jim Broadbent reprising their movie roles.

Gameplay revolves around a level‑based system: defeating foes grants experience, and each level up awards a virtue point that can boost health, strength, defense, or skill proficiency for any of the four Pevensie siblings. A unique warmth meter tracks how the perpetual winter bites at the party; staying cold slows combat and XP gain, while finding shelter restores warmth and steadies the pace.

Combat is a lively mix of creatures—from centaurs and minotaurs to wraiths and boggles—spread across open fields, dungeons, and a day‑night cycle that changes enemy patterns. Players can swap between characters, issue commands to AI‑controlled allies, and tackle side quests that unlock new abilities, all while hunting the White Witch’s forces and her looming bosses.

Storyline

The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe on Nintendo DS drops players into a frozen Narnia, where the evil White Witch has cast a spell that makes it forever winter and bans Christmas altogether.

When the great lion Aslan arrives, his presence signals the return of spring and the inevitable downfall of the Witch’s reign.

Four children stumble through a wardrobe into this enchanted realm, team up with Aslan, and together they battle the White Witch and her dark minions to restore warmth and hope to Narnia.
