Bratz Rock Angel [Posted on 2006-01-03]
My 8 year old blew through this game in one day. This I was disappointed with because I couldn't find this game anywhere except online.. Although she is still very intersted in this game. Graphics are nothing exceptional. I don't feel it is a bad choice for girls. I think at best it is for 7 to 8 year olds.

Awful game and awful role models! [Posted on 2006-02-06]
I know this is long, but bear with me, there's a lot of say.

This game deserves negative stars in every aspect. It is poorly thought-out, designed, and rendered and the product descriptions and packaging are deliberately misleading. We've gotten better games for free in a cereal box!

The description claims you can "Play as all four Bratz girls (Cloe, Jade, Sasha, and Jasmin)." Wrong. Players can choose to be one of the four at sign-in, but it makes no difference when you play. The game has only one storyline and there are NO variations. The same character goes through the same motions every time and the game predetermines every move. Players are not allowed to decide any outcome, no matter how small. When you enter a room, there is only one thing you can click, nothing else works. You can't explore, you can't look at things in detail, you can't even decide what ingredients to put in your smoothie! You have to play exactly as the game determines. When you go to find pictures, they're the same pictures in the same place every time. When you have to get paint, you have to pick the same color every time. And so on. After two, maybe three times through, your child will be bored. Mine was.

On the technical side, it's pretty dumb. The characters don't move realistically at all and their mouths don't even come close to syncing up with the dialogue. The backgrounds are dull and flat and the animation of the story bits between the tasks is in a completely different style, the characters don't even look the same!

The Bratz are very poor role models in everything from their behavior and look right down to their spelling! They only care about fashion, shopping, and boys, all conveyed in a whiney, valley-girl type tone that is annoying on the computer but truly horrifying when it comes out of your seven-year-old! And they dress like hookers. In another deliberate mislead, the cover shows the girls modestly dressed, yet in the game they all wear micro-mini skirts, cropped tops, gobs of makeup, and stilettos. Think Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman, only these are supposed to be teenagers and your child will idolize them. The game incorporates many different ethnic looks, which is good; however, the politically-correct racism is readily apparent - ALL the bad guys are blonde-haired and blue-eyed.

Obviously, I am not impressed with this game. My seven-year-old wanted it because she is ready for something more challenging than the Barbie games. However, she was able to get through the whole thing in less than two hours, quicker than any Barbie game. She loves to play Princess & the Pauper partly because of the design-your-own art projects such as the cakes and stained glass windows. At the end of P&P, she is left with a feeling of pride that she has created something totally unique, something that is truly special to her. The Bratz game only resulted in frustration because she wanted to choose a pink dress and the game only allowed blue.

This was our first experience with Bratz products and believe me, it will be our last!

Lots of fun for a 6-year-old... [Posted on 2007-07-11]
This game was a nice introduction for my 6-year-old daughter to how adventure games are played (point, click, talk to characters, pick up items you will use later, etc...). She reached the end of the actual game after one day, and continued to "replay" some of the games over the next few weeks, but that was all. She needed a little help doing some of the games, but not much. Kids much older than this may not find this challenging enough. I wish it had taken her a lot longer to finish the game!

Also, though I find the Bratz somewhat unappealing myself, I don't see them "turning my daughter into" a bratt. As previously mentioned, that comes from poor parenting, not playing an occasional game or watching an occasional movie.
