1.0 out of 5 stars Only suitable for the youngest Barbie fans, April 20, 2004

By A Customer

This game is very cute and has a variety of mazes, searching-type activities, and the crucial jewelry-decorating section that is necessary in any Barbie game that somehow overlooks fashion and makeup, but my 7-year-old completed the entire game inside 20 minutes, including installation time. It was far too easy, and I can't see her ever playing it again. Unless your child is under the age of 5, I wouldn't recommend this game, at least not until it ends up in the Bargain Closeout Bin at your local retailer.

2.0 out of 5 stars Incredibly EASY game for toddler to play, September 17, 2005

By	D. Farnham (Colorado) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

My daughter turned 4 in July 2005. I bought this September 16th, 2005. So my kid is just a few months past 4. She finished this game in less than an hour. This game is incredibly easy for any toddler who has played computer games before. The graphics are cute and the colors are vivid. My daughter did enjoy playing the game, but it really didn't offer any new challenges or teach her anything new.
I would recommend this to a parent who has a child who has just learned to use the mouse and is just learning some simple concepts like "matching". This game would also be good to help a new computer user learn to use the mouse. Lots of navigation in this game with the mouse.

2.0 out of 5 stars Way Too Short, July 8, 2005

By	Christine F. Roberts "mqr" (Saginaw, MI) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

My 5 year old daughter finished the entire game in 42 minutes. The activities in the game are very simple. She still plays it but it doesn't compare to Barbie as Princess and the Pauper, or Barbies Pet Rescue which are much much better, quite a bit longer, and more replayable.
Mermaid adventure's music I thought was quite good and I enjoyed the clown fish jokes but other than that I thought the game was poor at best.
