Review Date: November 2, 2008
Reviewer: Joan E. Rummell,
I love bella sara, so I loved this game. You can have 5 horses; Bella, jewel, thunder, fiona and eclixsor. I WOULD like it more if you could catch the horses, and have more then 5. The graphics are like Lucinda Green's game, which I loved. The goal of the game is to collect as many "cards" as you can. You can also do quests and stuff. I played for 2 hours I liked it so much! absolutely worth 19.99!
Great game for young girls!

I purchased this game (bella sara) for my two horse crazy daughters. I was impressed with the games graphics and also the relevence it has for my 5 year old daughters. If I let them, my girls would play this game all day and all night. This game incorporates both the real characteristics of horse ownership and also a magical make believe world. My girls eat it up! Being a horse person myself I also liked how this game teachs responsabilty in ownership and shows all the work it takes to care for these beautiful animals. Not really an education game, and I don't know how older children would take to it being so simplistic ; but definatly a fun one for my girls! I give it four stars!

Immersive and Captivating for Girls (...and occasionally Dads)

My 6 1/2 year old daughter loves this, and her Mom & Dad have been willingly pulled into this virtual world called North of North.

It's set up so you explore different areas of the world, collect cards, and do certain "challenges". As you complete the challenges, it unlocks different horses, and each of the horses unlocks certain gates in the virtual world. It's pretty amazing, and my little girl is thrilled every time she gets a new horse or discovers a new part of the world.

By today's standards, Bella Sara may not be technically state-of-the-art. But I think the game developers did a terrific job. All of the elements: visuals, gameplay, background music and characters, work together to create a deeply immersive fantasy world and a sense of discovery.

A few nits: there are some bugs in the logic: you may find yourself acquiring cards that are already in your collection; or acquiring a card and then not finding it in your collection. And it wasn't so obvious to me that the only way to advance in the game is not simply by collecting cards, but specifically by completing the challenges that are posted on the "Notice Board." Once I figured that out, the game is pretty straightforward.

I haven't seen the Bella Sara game for Nintendo DS, so I don't know if it's similar. But I hope there's a sequel.

This is a really fun game with great pictures and cool horses. I was a little disappointed I didn't get to ride a winged pegasus like "Nike" or a unicorn like "Mandalay", but other than than it was a pretty good game. Once you find certain cards while riding "Excelsior", you then get another horse than can unlock special gates to new places. You continue to find more cards and then get more horses. Once I got all the cards and horses, I lost a bit of interest in the game as I didn't have the anticpation of getting more horses. It took a lot of work to get all the horses though, so I enjoyed it for a long time.
