Designed for players 10 and up, it lets you create a personalized superstar, record karaoke-style performances, and compete online in a nationwide contest. This immersive experience combines music, style, and social competition, making it a must-have for aspiring stars and fans alike. ## Description desertcart.com Based on the Fox television series, American Idol: The Search for a Superstar brings the intense talent competition to your home. Designed for ages 10 and up, the game immerses players in the life of an American Idol contestant. Experience the celebrity lifestyle and create a superstar image. Shop for hip fashions and accessories, practice singing skills, and perfect dance moves. As players compete to be at the top, they must prove they have what it takes to be the best. Just like the TV show, this game features three tough judges who will praise or preach after each performance. Great tunes, super sets, and much more make this game as close as you can get to being there. And for the real test of talent, contestants can record and post their performance on the American Idol Web site to garner first place in a nationwide online competition. Review The whole family will have fun with this PC rendition of the popular star-making TV show. Play begins as you choose or create a contestant, and outfit them in pop-idol clothing and hairstyle. Then it's on to the recording studio where you-- yes, you-- record your voice singing one of a dozen or so songs, karaoke-style. This is the best part of the program, as the recordings you make are very long and crystal-clear. Song choices range from James Brown's "I feel Good" to Smash Mouth's "The In Set". Words are flashed along the screen, letting you sing along with the background music, and then play it all back for a good laugh or two. You can also play a "road to stardom" board game and choreograph a music video. The game can be played solo or with a friend, and players can post their performances on an American Idol web site. -- From Children's Software Revue® -- "Subscribe Now!" Review: A great game! - I don't know why everybody is saying that this game is trying to create the next Kelly Clarkson.....I'm trying to create the next Justin Guarini.Anyway this is a great game it's just like the real american idol show you get to create your own style for your created character in the game.Also you get 3 juges who rant or rave at your moves to a choice of 20 hip songs.Also what I think is best of all you get to video tape your performance on to a American Idol website and let the world decide rather you should be the AMERICAN IDOL.I think that you sould get this game because I know I will be the first in line to get mine to add to the rest of my big collection of American Idol merchandise. Review: Surprisingly Good - My daughter (8 years-old) enjoys this game way more than I thought that she would. A lot of the songs on it aren't familiar to her, but the game play is really set up so you don't have to know the songs to win. A lot of hand-eye coordination is needed for playing this game. I'd recommend this game for anyone 8 & up who likes computer games and board games. (It is set up much like a board game) ## Features - Become an American Idol contestant - 3 judges rave or rant at your moves - Refine your superstar style - Post your performance in American Idol cyber competition - Includes 20 hip tunes and cool dance moves ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0000639VO | | Best Sellers Rank | #122,072 in Video Games ( See Top 100 in Video Games ) #7,522 in PC-compatible Games | | Computer Platform | PC | | Customer Reviews | 3.5 3.5 out of 5 stars (14) | | Date First Available | February 20, 2002 | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00020626715393 | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | Yes | | Item Weight | 1.76 ounces | | Manufacturer | Vivendi Universal | | Package Dimensions | 5.4 x 4.8 x 0.2 inches; 1.76 ounces | | Publication Date | November 1, 2002 | | Rated | Everyone | | Release date | November 1, 2002 | | Type of item | Video Game | | UPC | 020626715393 | ## Images ![American Idol - PC - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/31BDm2VqflL.jpg) ![American Idol - PC - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51A72ATT91L.jpg) ![American Idol - PC - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51H29BV70KL.jpg) ![American Idol - PC - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51J10F3DSYL.jpg) ![American Idol - PC - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51R0NH1WD9L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A great game! *by L***E on October 28, 2002* I don't know why everybody is saying that this game is trying to create the next Kelly Clarkson.....I'm trying to create the next Justin Guarini.Anyway this is a great game it's just like the real american idol show you get to create your own style for your created character in the game.Also you get 3 juges who rant or rave at your moves to a choice of 20 hip songs.Also what I think is best of all you get to video tape your performance on to a American Idol website and let the world decide rather you should be the AMERICAN IDOL.I think that you sould get this game because I know I will be the first in line to get mine to add to the rest of my big collection of American Idol merchandise. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Surprisingly Good *by K***I on December 3, 2004* My daughter (8 years-old) enjoys this game way more than I thought that she would. A lot of the songs on it aren't familiar to her, but the game play is really set up so you don't have to know the songs to win. A lot of hand-eye coordination is needed for playing this game. I'd recommend this game for anyone 8 & up who likes computer games and board games. (It is set up much like a board game) ### ⭐⭐ an ok game *by A***A on January 10, 2004* the new codemasters game blows this one away but this game is ok too. but these are the bad things about it only 20 songs not the real judges the ending "is bad" you can't do any of the audition stuff you start right at the final two which dissapointed me the most no singing just dancing when it says style with thousands of looks don't get excited because there are not too many when it says over 20 hits don't get excited because there are onlt 21 or 22 songs in this game I used to think this game was the greatest but now codemasters came out with one this game has hundreds of improvements to make. I wouldn't reccomend this game to anybody (unless you collect this stuff) otherwise get the codemasters one. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/13618390-american-idol-pc](https://www.desertcart.us/products/13618390-american-idol-pc) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-05-23*
