Kate & Chris (video game)

Kate & Chris is a 2007 party-oriented open world action-adventure video game based on 20th Century Fox's 2007 animated film of the same name and Eric Stern's book series of the same name, developed by Heavy Iron Studios and published by THQ. The game was released on October 2, 2007 for mobile phones, Wii, PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, PlayStation Portable, PC, and Nintendo DS

Some of the cast from the film reprise their roles in this game, such as Mandy Moore, Elijah Wood, and Jim Carrey, while most of them were replaced. (for example, Michael Clarke Duncan and Zooey Deschanel are replaced by Kevin Michael Richardson and Tara Strong as Chief Rogerator and Eva Clark in this game) However, this does not apply to the Nintendo DS and PlayStation Portable version, in which audio clips from the movie are reused.

Gameplay
Kate & Chris features 3D platform gameplay as well as mini games. Players navigate a series of characters to go explore an open-world Eastview City and the Xenonship, controlling Kate, Chris, Eva, and Eddie. The player will also be able to create and customize their own teenager and play as that character. As the player progressed through the levels in the game, he/she met new characters, unlocked new areas, got more in-game currency etc. The game allows a second player to press a button on the second controller and join the game at any time, as well as pause the game and drop out. Players can switch around between the four main characters to give the storyline some slight twist, as each character says something different when a situation arises, to slightly alter the story. Some multiplayer minigames are also included, based around puzzle and shoot-'em-up mechanics.

Plot
Same as the movie plot but it has many edits and differences in the video game version.
