Bought this game after seeing the glowing-mom reviews. I'll add mine to them, now that my 10 yr old has beat the game. Her only complant was that it wasn't longer. The shopping is crazy-fun. I love how you are required to 'tour' and basically 'work' to fund your shopping addiction! This game is pure goodtimes and fun, and I think it's a wonderful confidence builder for girls, especially, but if I had a son, I'd buy it for him and encourage him to tour the world, too! You can't go wrong buying this game for any girl - and how often can you say that about a game? Definate five stars all the way for mixing exercising, dancing, fun, and fantasy!

I bought this for my daughter for her 8th birthday based on the good reviews I read online. The reviews were not wrong, my daughter and her friends LOVE this game! They can dance, shop, and even strum the guitar with Hannah. It is even kind of fun for Mom to play along, whereas with other games such as "Littlest Pet Shop", I am bored to tears. I would highly recommend this game for the "tween" set, it has enough to do that they don't get tired of it, but it isn't too tough that they get frustrated.

My girls Love Hannah Montana so we had to get this game. At first they did not like it. They played it once or twice and that was it. 4 months later they decided to try it again and now they like it. You practice dance moves and get to go shopping. Now that the price has dropped on the game, I would recommend it.

I am writing this review based on my 7-year old daughter's use of the game and my involvement when she needs my help. Initially this game proved very frustrating for her, as the Wii controls just never seem to be accurate enough to understand what you're doing, and sometimes the indicated on-screen action is not clear enough. It takes some time to find the exact motion that works for the indicated motion. So early on, this resulted in a lot of frustration for everybody.
After two or three tries, however, things started to change. Once my daughter figured out the motions, she actually started enjoying the "dance" sequences. This game is nothing more than a rhythm game, with the exception that, instead of button mashing, you replicate the indicated motions that appear on-screen. The better your timing, the better your score, and the more fans and money you earn. Some of the movements are tightly timed, requiring extremely quick transitions from one hand to the other. However, this is good because I think it teaches young children eye-to-hand coordination, forces them to look ahead to the next several movements, and teaches them a bit about timing and rhythm. There are also harder difficulties.
The music in the game is excellent. You play along with the actual studio recordings of the songs, and the sound quality is near-CD quality. Most of the voice-acting appears to be "sound-alikes" and not the actual performers from the show, although in some cases it is difficult to tell. There are some interesting cut-scenes between the cities you visit, which include some of the same campy comedy present in the show, and even a laugh-track. The computer-animated performances are interesting to watch. Even my wife watches the "performances" as my daughter plays.
The game includes a shopping component which integrates with the back-stage activities and performances. Whatever is purchased from the stores can be worn by Hannah in the game, even during the performances. The only thing I don't agree with -- everything costs the same, exactly "one shopping bag", which I refer to as "a dollar". Everything costs the same, from earrings to jeans, but I think it would be a better idea if things cost different amounts, to force young minds to "budget". The game makes it too easy to buy everything. This is my only complaint about the game.
Overall, this is a good game for young girls. It passes the time, gets them moving, and teaches them a thing or two about coordination and rhythm. For the cost, it will be a welcome addition to your Wii collection, and should have substantial replay value for quite some time.

Just purchased this Hannah Montana Game for $18.50 on sale at ToyRUS. It is easy to play. You have to perform at concerts, and then earn points to purchase clothing and shoes. I have a girl with a short attention span, and she just played it for hours. If she can stay still and play for hours, then it's a hit cause she rarely ever stays still. The boys wanted to play, but she said, no it's mine. Too funny!
