This is like a souped up version of game boy game. But the challenges seems to change, which is good. And the images are good.

I mean really little ones. My just turned five year old daughter mastered it within 3 days. So now that the whole game is complete she is thinking of redoing it again with another Mii. Overall, it is an ok game. The plus is it has the princesses and lets the player also act out as a princess. Story lines are easy and not complex. Sometimes it seemed too simple.

I was a bit skeptical at first when I ordered this game, but my six year old daughter cannot keep away from it. It is very age appropriate and has tasks that can be difficult for her, but she has been able to do just fine. If you are a disney fanatic and your daughter is too, this is a perfect game for all.

A fun game for little ones

Obviously this game isn't for older kids but my 4 and 6 year old daughters love it. They have fun creating their princesses and doing magic with their wands. They've played through the entire game a couple of times now & still want to play it again. Bottom line, it was worth it because they have so much fun playing.

Fantastic game for your young girl

I purchased this game as a gift for my daughter. I'm a long time gamer myself and I have found this to be one of the most well-crafted children's games available. I even went out of my way to e-mail the game developer and let them know what a great experience our family had with it.

There are more than a few things the developer did right that make this game easily accessible to the children (mine is 4): careful placement of the gems in the environment lead to important objectives and location, forgiving Wii controls for the wand, enemies that go down without too much of a fight, goals that are verbally spoken and gently repeated at certain intervals to keep the player focused.. the list goes on.

My daughter had an amazing time with game, and while I was always there to help coach, she was challenged without being frustrated. The only real disappointment to her came when the game ended and the 'bonus' area was simply a brief mini-game in Belle's Ballroom; she had really hoped to play a full level as Belle.

I really can't recommend this game enough for your young girl, especially if she is a fan of the Princesses. She may require a little guidance at first, but the format of the game is easily grasped. The game will surely help build her confidence and puzzle solving abilities as well as encourage exploration of a 3-D environment, one of the things I think my daughter finds most challenging with modern games (3-D navigation, I mean.) I don't regret the full price purchase one bit, if you can get it for less a purchase is a no-brainer.

Have fun!

Great for Little Ones.... Except for the Bugs!

My 4 year old loves this game, but it's got some serios problems that My 4 year old loves this game, but it's got some serious problems that prevent her from being able to play it without assistance. The most notably is the fact that if you have to use the Wii remote as a pointer it only works well if you are VERY close (with in 4 ft) of the sensor bar.

This is not the case with any other Wii game that we have. This "bug" requires an adult to complete various tasks simply because the game's pointer is so finicky.

Too short - otherwise good gameplay

We received this game as a Christmas gift for my 5 year old. She loves Disney Princesses and we had just bought our Wii, so this is one of the first games she played on it. Together, we finished the game in roughly four 30 - 40 minute game sessions. One bonus level that is over in five minutes is available after the game is won. The Wiimote controls for waving the wand were great, but the game creators could have done much more with the unique aspects of the Wii controller. Overall, a very well done game that looks good and smaller girls (I would have trouble recommending to girls younger than 5 and older than 7) can play easily. But, the major problem was its brevity and almost zero replay value. Would not purchase if it were over 20 dollars.

Defective Game + Unhappy Daughter = Sour Daddy

My wife purchased this game for our daughter's birthday in January. She picked it up on a whim and I *almost* took it back due to spotty reviews and the repeated mention of of short the game is. Well... the game was *very* short for us as it is completely broken.

The game becomes unplayable anytime there is a point in the game where you need to use the wiimote as a pointer. This makes the game basically impossible to play at certain points.

When you use the wiimote to point at the screen the cursor jumps and flickers and is impossible to control. This makes mini-games like the Sebastian/Octopus one COMPLETELY UNPLAYABLE. In fact it is seemingly impossible to get out of the mini-game. It's only the pointing part that is broken as the 'Wand' use of the wiimote is perfect.

My daughter was upset she couldn't play the game - but I told her I would take it back and get her another (less buggy) one but of course the local ---mart where we bought it wouldn't take it back 'Because of copyright laws'. This is absurd... how could you know a game is hopelessly buggy without opening it?

I am going to be contacting Disney Interactive and a higher level of Customer Service in an effort to get a refund for this frustratingly broken game.

It's sad Disney let such a buggy product get into the hands of the public and infuriating that you can be told 'Sorry you bought a buggy product but you're stuck with it'.

The game had lots of promise and the voice work and graphics were nice enough to wow my girl... too bad the controls render the rest of the game useless.

I rated the game's fun factor a 1 because we never will know if it's much fun ... and the overall as 1 because it has a game-breaking bug.

Not worth the money

We bought this game so our five year old daughter would have her own game for the Wii. Boy, do I wish we'd gone with the Barbie one instead. The graphics on this are horrible. She did finally figure out how to play it some by herself, but it is tricky, even the big people couldn't figure out the right moves for some of it. It was really disappointing.

My four year old daughter loved this game, but frankly it was a lot harder in some areas than it should be. The instructions were not that great, and in some situations there is no way the child could figure out how to get task solved. The graphics and sound are very good in the game
