Rating Summary

This is a collection of mini-games, based on the movie Arthur and the Revenge of Maltazard, in which players complete puzzle- and action-related challenges. Completing mini-games (matching items, dancing, swatting away insects, outrunning a boulder, etc.) sometimes allows players to unlock bonus content, including artwork and videos about the making of the movie. In one mini-game, players use a catapult to launch berries at invading insect-like creatures ("unicorns") described as a serious threat (e.g., "the unicorns enter the village and destroy it" and "We're under attack!"). In another mini-game, players must quickly pull a rug from under a charging creature before it smashes into players' screen—a "cracked-glass" effect appears and the screen shakes. The game receives an E-10+ rating for depictions and dialogue involving suggestive humor: A car horn causes two female characters' skirts to lift up, briefly revealing their underwear—the movie director jokes that he has ordered one of the cars for himself; a character named Max wears a loincloth with a bulging codpiece—he sometimes dances, turns around, and makes comments such as "You got that boogie in your bones!" and "Everybody get out in da street and paaaartay!" The dialogue also contains the following line delivered by an evil villain: "You've ruined my life . . . I'll make yours a living Hell!" [Italics added]
