5 out of 5 stars Don't Be Fooled by a Deceptively Boring Beginning   April 3, 2008
Erol Esen (Webster, NY United States)
This a "more" 3D game than the Swan Lake game because you actually move around in 3D environment.

At first I thought this game was really boring (compared to Swan Lake). BUT my four-year old daughter persisted and continued to play, and she eventually figured out amazing parts of the game that the beginning had completely belied.



5 out of 5 stars My girls love this game!   February 8, 2008

My 5 and 3 year old girls play this game constantly and they both can win it without assistance. Great game.


3 out of 5 stars Varied difficulty, old style 3d graphics   October 7, 2007
Joeil Virago (San Francisco, CA United States)
I got this game for my four year old [she turned four three months ago], and she can do, or muddle through most of it. But there are a few mouse based puzzles that are just really hard, where you have to move an object through a maze without touching anything. I am a graphic artist who illustrates with a mouse, and they are a little challenging for me, so they've got to be quite hard for kids. Most of the challenges consist of matching puzzles, of which some are pretty nicely drawn and challenging, as the objects to be matched are pretty similar. A few of the matching puzzles are painfully simple and repetitive, but they are probably pretty well targeted at the five or six year old.

The complaints about the quality of the graphics are from folks unfamiliar with 3d renderings and modeling. The quality is fairly consistent with late 90s games and older online 3d games. It's adequate [particularly when objects are in motion, it doesn't matter nearly as much how elaborately they are rendered -- imagine the difference between observing a painting and watching a play], and considering the price of the game [I got it for $10 in a retail store], it's fine. The shifting perspective can be bizarre, but it occurs only in limited areas of the game.



4 out of 5 stars Lots of fun for my granddaughter   September 21, 2007
Christian Karl (Los Angeles, CA USA)
This computer game is lots of fun for my granddaughter. It took her a while to get into it, because in the beginning she got a bit frustrated with the program, going round in circles, but eventually she got through the intitial stages and then she loved it. She is 10 years old and pretty handy with her computer games.
I can recommend this game based on her experiences with it.



5 out of 5 stars Great for preschoolers   August 14, 2007
C. Nolan
We LOVE this game at our house. My little ones are 4 and 5 and play it over and over again. We have the CD-Rom version and the graphics are nice. The puzzles and games are age appropriate for 4 and 5 year old children. The game recommends age 5 and up, but I can see why so many reviewers were disappointed. This is not something an older child would like. The puzzles are a little on the easy side--matching, etc. and perfect for younger children. Great if you have a little Barbie fan or two. Parents of older children should skip this one.
