Kikoskia plays Barbie Ocean Discovery - Part 3 of 3


You mean there's a plot to this after all?!?

The yellow shell with the bubbles has you catching five differently colored bubbles in rings of the same color. Watch the rings, and move the cursor to the same-colored ball. You'll have to press A at the right time so that the ball floats directly into the path of the ring so that it gets into it. After matching five, you'll get the green crystal.

The green shell with the dolphin is a maze where you have to help Sandy the Dolphin find the way to a vault door. This maze is not like the one with the baby turtles; instead, you just move a dolphin around with the Control Pad while you only see a small part of the maze at any given time. When you find the vault door, you'll get the blue crystal.

After getting all three crystals, you'll use the Control Pad and the A button to move the gems to the proper place on the door. There are sound cues that tell you whether you put them in the right place or not, and they are pretty easy to figure out. When you open the door, you'll find the treasure, which Barbie decides to use to help save ocean life while spinning around. She then says "We are a great team!" even though you did 100% of the work and just moved her around. You can then replay the game, or you can also read up on the story about the treasure.

As it turns out, the sunken ship is the Royal Crest, a royal ship that was lost over 100 years ago on a voyage to collect a treasure that was never found. Until Barbie found the Captain's diary, the legend of the ship was lost. According to the diary, the Captain found the deserted crystal city as well as the vault, but the captain could only find two of the crystals to lock the door. Nevertheless, he brought the two crystals he did find back to the Royal Crest and drew a map to the location of the city and the vault for future reference.

Afterwards, a nearby volcano erupted, and the island slowly sank beneath the waves as the eruption caused a tidal wave. The captain and his crew abandoned ship and made it to safety, and the captain then wished the reader good luck finding the crystals. Barbie then found the piece of the treasure map from the start of the game inside the diary, and from there, the rest is history. (I guess.)

You won. Yay.
