Ratatouille for Mac
Game is pretty good for youngsters, with some glaring problems.

Right off the bat: This game does not work with OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard. If your kids like to play this game a lot, do *NOT* upgrade to Snow Leopard. It is a 'known incompatibility' with Apple, but there is no update.
In Leopard, it works just fine. The minimum requirements seem ridiculously high for such a low-resource-intensive game; but it plays acceptably on my Power Mac G4 with a GeForce 4 Ti4600. The game can be overly simplistic at times for me, but my four-year-old daughter likes it. Unfortunately, there are times when what to do isn't obvious, even to me, much less to her; and the controls (as mentioned in another review,) could use with some customizability.
In summary: Good for younger kids, although only on sale.5 of 5 people found this useful

Ratatouille for Mac
Complete waste of money, time and effort.

First of all, I only gave this product the one star that i did because you can not give it 0.
Pros:
Decent graphics
Cons:
No menu to view or change controls.
Several menus that you can not get out of unless you quit the game.
When in tutorial level, it tells you what you have to do, such as "Press the dash button to run", but it does not tell you which key on your keyboard that you need to press, (and no it is not the 'dash (-) button' on the keyboard.
It also tells you to to things that I can not find any way to do.
Very bad menu lay out.
etc, etc, etc!
Conclusion:
Do not buy this game, all you will get out of it is a frustrated child and a wasted £20 dent in your wallet.15 of 18 people found this useful
