Barbie Groom and Glam Pups
SCORE: 84
Calling all Barbie fans! THQ has developed a fun game for Barbie and pet fans alike. With Barbie Groom and Glam Pups gamers can enjoy interacting with their virtual pet in the world of Barbie. Gamers can choose from six different breeds to groom, dress, photograph and much more. Once your puppy has been groomed and accessorized, then it is time to participate in dance routines, fashion shows and photo shots. Barbie herself serves as the tutor of sorts providing tips and advice.
The gameplay in Barbie Groom and Glam Pups is tailored for the younger audiences. It is easy enough for early elementary kids, but fun and entertaining enough to keep the older Barbie fans interested as well. Gamers will use the Wii remote to move the cursor around on screen. The directional buttons are used to change the camera angle and the ‘2’ button takes photos. Gamers will use these easy controls to train their pups various tricks like spinning and kissing. These tricks can then be showcased in dog shows.
Barbie Groom and Glam Pups has plenty of replay for the younger fans. The training and accessorizing alone will keep them busy for hours. The graphics will not blow anyone away, but again the target audience will be pleased with the cuteness of the little puppies as they are depicted. Environments are decorated brightly with pinks and purples.
This is definitely a game I would recommend for the girl in your
family. Although the game is safe for the entire family, it would not be
one the guys are going to show interest in. THQ did a good of
representing the Barbie franchise. I am sure all the little ladies will
find enjoyment with Barbie Groom and Glam Pups.
