This is a really fun game! It took me a little while to get the hang of it but you are a dancer trying to win the world championship. You have to play mini games to increase your abilities in different areas and then you have to learn new dance moves and practice routines. There are nine different ballets that you perform and you unlock them progressively. You perform recitals and eventually work your way into bigger recitals. This is a little like Imagine Figure Skater and I loved that game too. It is fun for all ages and a great Imagine game!
Definately worth the buy!

4.0 out of 5 stars Imagine Ballet Star kid's review, August 20, 2009

My 7 year old daughter just bought this game for herself and here is what she said....... "The game is a little bit hard because some of the activities are timed, but it's okay.... because if you practice, you'll get used to it. I figured out how to use the game by myself and it's a lot of fun. I like being able to go to different places in the game (school, ballet class, arcade, etc.) and play the different mini-games. You definitely need to know how to read to play this game. I like that some of the dances are by myself and others are with a partner. I recommend this game for other girls my age who like ballet."

As a parent....I played the game a little bit. It wasn't too difficult, but there IS reading involved and I wouldn't recommend it for a child who can't read instructions well. I think it is a very cute game and it was a great purchase :)

5.0 out of 5 stars Difficult at first, but then easy and fun!, July 10, 2009

A Kid's Review

= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 

This review is from: Imagine Ballet Star DS (Video Game)

At first, when I bought this game I started playing and it was a little difficult because there were different ballet moves that you had to do using the stylus and I didn't know how to do them because they never explained how to but later, I got used and did it pretty well. It's very addictive and entretaining. You can choose up to three characters, which have different stories of why they started dancing ballet. They have different personalities and different goals. You train and learn new moves and routines which you'll perform at different recitals each three months.You can create your own routines with the moves you've learned and get points that you'll use later to buy yourself costumes. You can play various mini-games which are fun,too. You get to meet people and dance ballet with boys. In the competitions you should try to be first so you get a better reputation. After some months of dancing ballet you move to England and there you'll finish dancing at more or less month 18. You'll go there with your partner and show everybody how good you are. That's all I guess!! And I loved it! I recommend it to ages 7-14 or if you are an Imagine game lover you'd love this game at any age.
