Strawberry Shortcake Dreams App Reviews

We are big fans of this and all Budge games. Yes, it says free when you download it, but it also mentions that it has in app purchases. I dont think they are misleading you. Now about the game... Once you purchase the complete package (4.99) you unlock soooo many games and activities. Completely worth the money! Get it you wont be disappointed!

IT IS NOT FREE BEACAUSE YOUR HAVE TO FREAKEN BUY PACKAGES

Understand first of all, that like many of this type of game, the download is basically a demo. When you see the notation that there are in-app purchases available, look in the app description for the list of available purchases. That will allow you to go in with a better idea of what youre in for before downloading it. I personally dont mind this setup because it allows me to gauge whether or not my child will enjoy the game long-term before I make a commitment to buy it. (And app development isnt free, after all, so income usually has to come from a paid app, ad sales, or data mining. For my kids apps, Id prefer a paid app model over the other two options.) This game allowed enough play in the demo mode that I could easily gauge her interest, without it being too naggy about buying the upgrade. (Some demo apps really push the purchasable stuff upfront so the child is drawn to it, while in this demo the free characters were the more natural first selection.) The app itself is really enjoyable. My 3-year-old girl loves it. There is a good variety of play. You dress up the girls in outfits/hairstyles, change colors and textures of the clothes, and play mini-games. There are the six (?) main characters and each can play one of the six different scenes (each scene has its own outfits, hairstyles and mini game). Through playing the mini-games you earn additional prizes (outfits and hairstyles), which will allow the game to continue evolving for quite some time. Im sure it will get old to her eventually, but for the price of a couple of dollar store toys, this is going to last a while. Age-wise, I think it is probably perfect for 2-6 year-olds. For a young 2yo some of the mini games might be a bit tough, and for an older 6yo, the play might get repetitious fairly quickly. 3-4 is probably the sweet spot here. My only real complaint (and reason for 4 stars rather than 5), is that they do push their other apps with a big stamp-sized ad on the home page. I have no problem with them promoting their other apps, but in an app designed for preschoolers I would rather it be a little more subtle.

Cute game, but you immediately have to purchase, purchase, purchase.

I love you to the game five stars up I love the outfits and your character for me like a princess OK I like the time like where its nice and I will give it five stars because I love the game of love love it bye

This game is awesome because you can play many games and dress all the girls up at the sleep over. You should play this game and try it you will love it. ☮

Such a great game to keep the little ones occupied.

I downloaded this game for my 7 year old daughter and at first I had no idea you needed to purchase additional characters to unlock them, however once you pay the $4.99 to unlocK all you really dont have to purchase anything else. It is entertaining to my you we kids so I am happy with it!

Bite the bullet and unlock it all. Our 5 year old LOVES the dress up and mini game play.

My 4 year old says "I love this game". He loves dressing up all the berry girls and can play for hours, (or until I cut him off).

You instantly have to start buying everything and when I would try it would give me an error and say try again later. Daughter is very disappointed with this app

This app would be great if it actually let me purchase the rest of the characters... Ive tried unlocking it for my daughter, but Im constantly getting the message that pry hashing is taking some time and to be patient...its been a week. Very annoying - for me and my daughter.

I have it on the iPad and my phone and it gives her hours of entertainment. I just purchased all the girls for 4.99$ which gave her even more things to unlock. This game is awesome

My daughter loves the app! Just one more free character please?

I like this game but I want Lemon for free. And I want them to add Apple, Sweet and Sour and please give 1 of those 3 options for free and I still want Lemon for free. Please fullfill my request. This would be a much better game if they fullfill my request. But I guess I would recomend this game for people who like Strawberry Shortcake.

Add a new character, plum pudding. And her dream is to be a ???. Please add one more character.

My daughters favorite game in the world..

Im used to how limited Budge apps are when you buy the free version so I was pleasantly surprised when I downloaded this for my daughter and there seem to be more options on offer (more free characters and customization) This was last night. She opened the app today and promptly burst into tears because supposedly free characters were suddenly locked with a link to purchase content. Im usually satisfied with their free offerings but this feels downright manipulative to get parents to shell out for paid content.

My 3 year old loves this app!

Love this app:)
