Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
My daughter and I played it pretty much straight through the Martin Luther King, Jr. three-day weekend. We hardly noticed the time fly by. My daughter is 8 years old, third grade, and loves to draw. We got hooked on Project Runway, where she would try to design an outfit based on the challenges the contestents were faced with - and she and I even made one of the dresses she designed. So, here it is, six months later and she is firm in her resolve to become a fashion designer (I'll enjoy it while it lasts. : ) and along comes a commercial for Designer's World. Well, we had to have it. And it was worth every penny. It is perfect for the 8,9,10 year old range. It is easy to hook up to the TV, and there is NO DRAWING involved at all. If you can click a remote control, you can play this game. It is a one-person game, but it is easy to have two people take turns. It gives a taste of what it means to select fabrics, choose the right cut, understand your audience, what to look for in a model, selling in different markets, and realizing that judges don't always have good taste. : ) I also love the map of the world included, so kids can see the different markets available to show their outfits. Once you hit every region in the US, you can then choose Tokyo, Paris, Milan, South Africa, and more! Once you get to the end of the game, it gives you a summary of how you did. Be sure to write it down, because this game doesn't give you the option to save. Then, play it again and see if you can beat your own totals. It is pretty easy for 10 years old and up to figure out how to design for the judges and get five stars for every design, but just because the judges like your outfit doesn't mean it'll sell in that market. I love how the game forces you to choose between giving the judges what they want, giving the market what it wants, and designing to please yourself. I highly recommend it.
