Graphics: Very nice, Barbie is quite recognizable and the colors are clear and bright. While the game is sentimental, it is not syrupy-sweet or overwhelming. Younger girls may enjoy this game immensely, but tire of it as they get older. Also, some older girls may find the idea of dressing dolls a little insulting.

This game is good for young girls, but the lack of adjustable difficulty settings will turn older players away after one or two times through.

At the end of the program, you'll return to Celine's garden. You can play games over by clicking on the pink star. At the sewing shop, make the dresses all of one color again to get the ribbons. At the baker's shop, decorate the wedding cake to get the loaf of bread. Get a loaf of bread and some hair ribbons for the goose girl you'll meet. Take the boat to the country across the sea. When players return to the boat they will need to find a golden key, used later in the game. Getting to the rose hedge earns the player another shell. At the Ogre's cottage, guide Rapunzel through the maze to the rose hedge. When Rapunzel has organized the Dragon's gold and jewels for him, she'll gain a silver shell.

At the Dragon's cave, tidy up the scattered treasure. She can get one silver shell from the Dragon and another from the Ogre. When Rapunzel finally escapes from the witch's tower, she must gain two silver shells to get the fairy's boat and cross the sea. There are twelve cards to match with a variety of pictures. The second activity is a memory game in the kitchen, where players try to match pictures on cards. Players can experiment with the dresses for as long as they like. By clicking on the stairway, players enter a small room where Barbie (as Rapunzel) keeps her dresses, accessories, and jewels. The first is Dress Up, accessed from the first page of the story. Players follow the story of Rapunzel with the chance to play six different games along the way.
