    One of the uncommon few that works well for the young gamers it's for -- the control is easy to handle, the level of difficulty is appropriate and involving, the graphics are colorful and cheery, the game design is creative and fun, and there's a bunch of things to collect along the way.
  2. The levels are fun to figure out and Barbie moves fluidly and well. However, the sneaking bit can get sticky as the game progresses, even on the easy level.
  3. A delightful excursion for the young female audience for which it is intended, but there's enough action and innovation to make it interesting for boys as well.

    Barbie is the baddest girl in all of Malibu! If there was any other girl, they wouldnt hold a TORCH to the blonde bombshell that is Barbie.
