Released for the Nintendo DS, Brave is an action-adventure game developed by Behaviour Interactive and published by Disney Interactive Studios.

Behaviour Interactive also made MySims Racing, Transformers Animated: The Game and High School Musical 2: Work This Out! for the DS.

Pick it if…

  • you want to get lost in a long quest
  • you have time for a weekend project (roughly 6–20 hours)
  • you have a friend to play against
  • you've played the DS hits and want something less obvious

Maybe skip it if…

  • you want a game you can finish in one short session

What playing Brave is like

Action-adventures blend real-time combat with exploration, puzzles and item collection. You open up a larger world gradually as new tools let you reach places you couldn't before.

Tip for newcomers: Keep a mental (or paper) map of locked doors and unreachable ledges; most action-adventures expect you to come back once you find the right item.
