Inspired by the Charles Dickens tale re-imagined by Robert Zemeckis as a major feature film starring Jim Carrey, "Disney's A Christmas Carol" is a puzzle-adventure game for the Nintendo DS where players guide Scrooge on his supernatural adventure, by blowing and shouting into the microphone and using the Nintendo DS stylus to pull, shake, drag, rattle and tap the different environments.

Animated cutscenes unfold like an interactive storybook, and the game features 14 mini-games such as snowball fights, playing Carols on a violin or piano, and family card games – with friends being able to join in for “pass the DS” multiplayer games.As a final bonus, the cartridge also includes an Advent Calendar unlocking surprises everyday up to Christmas, and the English version of Dicken’s classic book, so players can read along as they play.

Family Friendly Gaming gave the title a 90% saying, "I am so thankful that Disney Interactive published A Christmas Carol. This is a fantastic product based on a wonderful story… I think A Christmas Carol on the DS is a great way to get the book into the minds of the current generation."
