Bratz Girlz Really Rock 

 

Bratz Girls Really Rock on the Nintendo DS has the honor of bad timing. With the debt bubble bursting, and families crimping down on spending, a game that dwells on excessive shopping will probably not go over very well. The depth of the Bratz girls in this video game is in a word - shallow. What it comes down to for me is the target audience. I hope to answer the question - are the lessons in Bratz Girls Really Rock appropriate for young girls?

Bratz Girls Really Rock shocked me right out of the gate visually. The anorexic looking girls were dressed in a way that sends the wrong message to young men. It also makes them look desperate, and they have no respect for their own bodies. On the plus side there are some cute looking little animals that can be pets. The 3D graphics look okay, and the camera behaves in this DS game.

I really wish this game had taught young girls to be content with what they have in life. Bratz Girls Really Rock teaches you deserve to dress nicely, and to play games to get the finances for it. The attitudes of the Bratz Girls was the biggest problem I found. They are positive, but self absorbed most of the time. The music was okay. It did not annoy me, nor did it make me want to sit there and listen to it.

The mini games in Bratz Girls Really Rock add some replay value. There are plenty of characters to play, and wardrobe items to purchase (editor: and wear). Most of the mini games are pretty simple, and easy. Be sure to read the instructions as a few of them can be long if not done properly.

The controls in Bratz Girls Really Rock exhibit an intelligent design. Family Friendly Gaming has been very supportive of video games on the Nintendo DS that allow controls of both the touch screen, and the D-pad. Bratz Girls Really Rock allows for both type of controls. This versatility goes a long way to be more inclusive. I had some fun playing Bratz Girls Really Rock.

I have already mentioned the moral, and ethical issues I have with Bratz Girls Really Rock. I would like to see some sequels to this franchise, especially if it becomes more targeted to America. This is the kind of a game that follows the out of touch Hollywood culture. The thing is that culture has been exposed as problematic across the vast majority of America.
