2 out of 5 stars not worth the money   December 29, 2007
steve (Chicago, IL United States)
First, remove the word "mystery" from the title. I played this with my [...] daughter and we completed the entire game in 90 minutes. The clues are more like facts that Barbie shares rather than things the player finds. There is little reasoning or thought required by the player, and there is no way to deduce the culprit without hearing the culprit's backstory at the end of the game. Maybe suitable for 6 - 8 year old.


5 out of 5 stars My Daughter loves this game!   August 3, 2007

My daughter just turned 8 and loves this game. In fact, I caught her sneaking on the computer after her bedtime to play it.

Despite meticulously loading the game we had error messages from the beginning followed by erratic play.

Tried to contact Activision customer support and got-----nowhere. They have no phone contact, just a slow and plodding email system that blames everything but the game.

Save your aggravation and get something else. Better yet, get a Mac next time as I intend to do and avoid Windows nonsense all together.



4 out of 5 stars good game for very yong kids   March 15, 2007
R. Cuevas (SF Bay Area)
This game is great for young kids. My 6-year old loves this game (after I helped her get through it the first time.) The graphics are a little fake looking (I am surprised at Activision's lack of finesse in this area). However, I must say again the game is fun and at times challenging enough to want to play it multiple times.


3 out of 5 stars I liked it but.........   January 3, 2007
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I agree with many other reviewers. The game was awsome with fun but I was a little mad when I was able to finish the game within two hours! I am 13, and me and my sister like the barbie movies and some of the games,we thought it had to be good because we split the price to buy it because it was $30.00 and we thought it must be good if it costed that much. I was fun but if you want a good mystery game try Nancy Drew games, they are much more fun and try Secret Agent Barbie. It is more complex. All in all, either spend your money on Secret Agent,Nancy Drew,another Barbie game, or don't bother buying anything at all.
