This game is so stupid! Microsoft is a fool to make this game. This game is only for girls! I would rate this .1 out of 5. It has poor graphics, dump tunes, and more. Unless you are in love with horses or Barbie, don't waste your money.

A good game for girls

This game is a great game for young girls. I got it for my daughter on PS2. She's ten and loved it. The story is basic, you have to rescue missing baby horses, but there are hidden coins and presents that let you unlock new outfits for Barbie and customize her horse. A couple of the puzzles were a little challenging, but nothing she couldn't figure out. It was fun for her to jump things and race her friends. Probably my biggest complaint is that controlling the horse takes a little to get the hang of, but after some practice, it became no problem. I recommend this game for any little girl who loves horses like my daughter. She and her brother had fun challenging each other with the multiplayer, too. It's not violent or dark and scary, just a fun and engaging adventure.

This is a great game.

It's very fun for kids and it's great for people who love horses and resuing them. It's a great game.

If you want a cute game for girls, get Mario Kart, not this.

Obviously, this game was made for little girls, but there's better games out there that might appeal to girls without insulting their intelligence.

I'm actually exaggerating a bit, this game is not nearly as bad as it could have been. Most of the gameplay is built on riding your horse, which borrows a lot from the Zelda 64 riding engine. Once you get off your horse though to look for runaway horses, watch out. Barbie is slow on her feet and can't run, which can get very annoying. There are also side activities, like unlocking outfits and washing your horse, which is as rudimentary as using the cursor brush to move over a horse.

But overall this game sucks. If you want to buy a game for your sister/daughter/niece, get her a real game with quality gameplay, like Mario Kart Double Dash or Super Monkey Ball.

Good game if you love horses.

People rate this a three star but why? All of the stores are out of stock of them and there are hardly any if any used games in the stores! It's a better game than we thought. I mean, the people who rate games probably like action games or something but alot of these games have been bought and NOT returned like some other games. It must mean it's better than we thought.

At last an Excellent Game for Girls

Like many girls my daughter loves horses. She is also fortunate enough to enjoy riding them too. And yes, in her spare time on those wet days, she has a lot of fun playing this game. Some aspects of the game are quite challenging at first - but learning it is part of the fun. We've had it for a month now and she's still discovering new things.

way too scary

This game scared the pants off my 7 year old son and his 3 year old sister. (Keep in mind that the son is just a little bit femanine acting.) They just couldnt get over the fact that they thought the horses were dead, or that Barbies horse was going to drown in the water, or that it would break its leg and fall on one of the many insanly to big jumps in this game.
It scared us to death thinking Barbie might fall off the back of the horse. the graphics are okay ocasionally you might even see something big and brown come out of the horses rear.
(Just kidding)
This has burnt a hole in our families trust for these games.
Halo or the grand theft auto (Duoble pack)are both better games for this age group, i think that all age groups could get attached to these to fabulous better.

Finally, fun on Xbox for girls

After months of watching her brothers play Xbox games, my 7 year old daughter has a game she loves and can play well. It isn't intimidating, it isn't even particularly challenging; it's just fun. Of course, her brothers think it's stupid, but hey, she thought Lord of the Rings was stupid. As a fun game for girls, this is a hit.

It seems to real

We have had Game Cube for a while and she can play some games with her brothers but we just picked up the X-Box and saw this game (picked up Halo, too). She loves it!! The controls are a little challenging for her, but hey it has been one day. I am lucky Monday is a holiday (up until 12am). She now has a game she can truly enjoy. I need maybe two more for her.

PLEASE MAKE MORE GAMES FOR GIRLS ON XBOX.
