Add that to the fact that this game is extremely short, it feels like it's over before it's begun. This search and talk to everyone routine isn't necessarily bad in itself, but I was left feeling there wasn't much to explore in Mia Goes for Great. Ok, I'm probably reading too much into that, but it's a theory. I suppose these are stories that fans of the American Girl dolls are supposed to roleplay, so perhaps a lack of a distinct personality gives young kids the opportunity to be more creative with that. One thing that is kind of disappointing is that Mia lacks a real, distinct personality, but I wonder if that was on purpose. This is a game you really don't have to worry about putting in front of a young child.
The general lesson seems to be to never give up, and that's good. Mia overcomes a lot of adversity and setbacks on her way to skating in the regionals. And again she goes through similar difficulties when her coach pushes her to enter into regionals, although her family's strained budget forces her to get a bit more resourceful the second time around. It sends her on a hunt for various things: someone to sharpen her skates, music for the routine, a costume. She's given the big task of creating her own original routine for a performance. Mia Goes for Great follows the story of Mia, a young girl who enjoys ice skating. It sounds like the girl is voiced by the same actress as Julie Saves the Eagles as well, or at least she matches the tone and dialogue style very closely. All dialogue is voiced by actors with the same super-pleasant tone again. It's all soft and stays in the background. Some of the songs are actually pretty nice, and none of it is grating or annoying. Music and sound effects are pleasant and match the mood of the game. The eyes on everyone seem a little creepy too, but you don't see too many close-ups, thankfully. While they are not bad looking, there's not much in the way of fluid animation. The character models are again pre-rendered. There are lots of little details that make it easy on the eyes. So if you're just looking for a new story, but not a new game, that's what you'll get here.īackgrounds are a vibrant mix of CG and real-life images.
It remains consistent with the last game in this series that I reviewed, Julie Saves the Eagles, in almost every way.
