The game was developed by the French animation giant Etranges Libellules for the PC, PSP, Play Station and Nintendo. It was published by Atari. The game is packed with a good story line, apt characters and action filled sequences.
The game revolves around three main characters: Arthur, Princess Selenia and Bitamiche. Their aim is to fight through the world of Minimoys to find the fabled treasure. The Minimoys are extremely small creatures that live along with the nature. But they are so strong that they could pose a good resistance for Arthur and his team. The player gets to choose from any of the three characters at any point of the Arthur & the Invisibles PSP version. The three main characters are proficient in their individual terms. Arthur is appreciated for his athletic abilities like jumping, leaping, etc. Princess Selenia is a tough knight with superior fighting skills. She is armed with a sword, and could be dangerous to the enemies. The third one, Bitamiche is relatively small and is known for his application of thoughts. Bitamiche has many gadgets to his side that could help the team in cracking complex puzzles.
The success of the game lies in the smart use of the three members. When a situation needs brute force to proceed further, only Princess Selenia could make it. So are the other situations where only Arthur or Bitamiche could help. As the game advances, it can lead the player to complex situations which would require the powers of all the three characters. Only when the player is smart enough to switch between them at the right time, the situation would be overcome.
