Summary: Not truely XP compatible.
Review: I also should have read the reviews on this however, my Daughter loves this game. I do not have the problems with sound or graphics as they are very clear on our system. However, my 4 year old now has to have Administrator rights on the system in order to play this game. I bought XP so I could allow the kids functionality on the computer without me hovering over them. I studied how to set the system up for limited users and Administrators (which can do everything), but now all that work and the money for the product are gone. I have made my complaint with Disney as they are the ones that informed me that they have no intention on changing this product.

Summary: I should have read the reviews here first!
Review: I purchased the game for my 4 year old daughter and was extremely disappointed in the quality. I should have read the reviews first as they sum up the CD-ROM perfectly. Slow to load, confusing, a mumbling narrator and terrible graphics. This is the first and last Disney CD-ROM that I will purchase. The Vivendi Universal games that distribute all of the Barbie titles could definitely teach Disney a thing or two about designing age appropriate, amazing software for kids. Don't waste your money on this product.

Summary: Boring and a waste of money
Review: My daughter (4.5 years old, but computer-savvy) was so excited when I showed her the box of this game. We loaded it, it ran fine, but nothing else made the purchase worth from there on. The graphics are crude, the 360 degree (or almost 360 degree) navigation is awkward, the choices (3 for each object) are poor, and the fairy godmother is incredibly long-winded and annoying.My daughter's words, "Princesses are supposed to be fun... but this game is SOOO boring." We played with it for an hour and will never touch it again.

Summary: Simply awful
Review: Terrible game. It has poor graphics, glitches, is confusing and impossible to get any enjoyment out of. I'd give it a zero rating if I could. Five year old grand daughter can't stand the frustration. Neither can I.

Summary: mom of a 5 year old
Review: This game is terrible. I have just purchased my computer and the game is so slow. A grown person can barely place the furniture much less my 5 year old. The introduction to the game and instructions are way to long for a childs attention span.

Summary: Boring and a waste of money
Review: This is a dreadfully awkward and boring game offering limited choices for creative players. You would think Disney, with all the money they've made off of kids and parents would put a little more investment into creating a truly good game, rather than simply trading on the whole "princess" marketing thing they're into now. The sound quality on this game is as bad as the game itself. My four-year-old, who is perfectly capable of playing other games of this type for this age group, kept having to ask me for help because she couldn't hear what the annoying narrator was saying. If you want a GREAT game that allows kids to decorate a castle and have some fun, try Barbie as Rapunzel. Yes, it's Barbie, and that's a downside in itself, but the game is so well done with such high-quality animation and sound, and it seems as if they put some money into the content of the game itself. It's very engaging and my daughter can't tear herself away. Disney could learn a thing or two from this game.

Summary: The Narration NEVER stops
Review: This is one of the most annoying Princess games ever. It loads fine on my computer but when your in the game the narration is slow, obnoxious and never stops. 2 mins to explain each game! You can't by pass it! My child got this for Christmas was excited and now..hates it. She's 7 and thinks this is the stupidest game.

Summary: Big Disappointment!
Review: We bought this cd for our 7-year-old daughter. The cd seems to slow down the speed of the drive so that it can't be installed at all. Nothing we try works, and our computer is only about a year old and surpasses all of the system requirements. We have never had this much trouble from a cd before. Overall, it has been a waste of money and time, not to mention a disappointment to a small girl who thought it looked fun. We expected more from a big money company like Disney to put out better quality products. This is our first Disney Interactive CD, and most definitely our last.
