The Tale of Despereaux, an interactive game based on
Universal Pictures' animated adventure of the same name, which will be released in conjunction with the movie, on December 19th.

An introductory training mode, mouse-centric unique abilities, upgradeable skills and objects, and a lot of courage, will help Despereaux face off against a multitude of animal enemies and human foes on his quest to save Princess Pea. Multiple difficulty settings will ensure that a wide range of adventurers can enjoy Despereaux's heroics again and again.
