My 8 year old finished this in a day.

User Rating: 1.9 | Barbie in The 12 Dancing Princesses PS2
OK this game is bad. Really bad. It's got horrible, quirky, glitchy graphics. The audiowork is mediocre at best and the gameplay is just BAD. My 8-year-old daughter completed this game in one day and hasn't had any interest in playing it since. Part of a game for me as a parent is something with replay value. My daughter *still* plays Super Mario Sunshine, for example, and that game has been around for years. I honestly wish I hadn't wasted the money.

If you have a child who likes Barbie and is completely new to video games then this title might have some play value. If it just had smoother graphics and even slightly more engaging gameplay I might have given it a higher rating. But don't bother - not even if it's in the bargain bin - your child will be sorely disappointed.
