Fun game! July 3, 2005 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
This game is really fun! The only downside is the songs. There are only about 20 songs to choose from, and they could be better songs, but overall this game is good. You get to choose a name for your player, you get to choose if it is a boy or a girl, then you get to choose your hair style and your clothes. At the beginning you don't have many items of clothing, but as the game goes on you get to buy clothes, which earns you more star power and helps you win. In the game, you roll a die and then get to choose where to go depending on the amount of spaces you rolled. Some of the spaces you land on help you gain money or lose money, let you buy stuff to get more star power, and performances where you either sing or dance (you use the microphone your computer comes with, if you don't have one you can buy one). The actual game ends when you or your opponent gets 1000 points in your star power, then both players go to the red carpet and preform one last time, and the one with the most star power wins. You can also make music videos on the game, which is fun. Also, throughout the game you can buy dance moves, lighting, and backgrounds to make your music videos better! This game is fun and addicting, and it's worth buying. The game really has nothing to do with the actual show, but it's still fun!
Surprisingly Good December 3, 2004 5 out of 7 found this review helpful
My daughter (8 years-old) enjoys this game way more than I thought that she would. A lot of the songs on it aren't familiar to her, but the game play is really set up so you don't have to know the songs to win. A lot of hand-eye coordination is needed for playing this game. I'd recommend this game for anyone 8 up who likes computer games and board games. (It is set up much like a board game)

The songs rock the clothing rocks the game rocks.brIts like the sims because you get to create your charecter but instead of walking around you get to compete and it is so much fun to make a music video with friends you really should try the game
NOTHING LIKE THE SHOW BUT THIS GAME ROCKS February 21, 2004 11 out of 12 found this review helpful
This American Idol Game is 10 times better than the one made by Codemaster!!!! I see people talking about how, "Oh, I don't know these songs" or "These songs are old" but if you don't know them the words flash across the screen and if they are old....tough!!!brI'm an 11 year old that should have been born 20 years ago because I love those kind of songs!! I love the way that you can make that person your own! You are NOT trying to make th next American Idol!! It's a game people!! Come on!!! The clothes, hair and all around point of the game is definetly the best game I have ever played and that is truely sincere!!pHope you like the game!!!p~Vanessa~
