About Strawberry Shortcake: Musical Match-ups

Strawberry Shortcake Musical Match-Ups is a puzzle game where you try to straighten out mixed up Strawberryland characters within a given time limit. When the game begins, a mixed up character will appear on the screen and you need to change the head, body, and legs until they are all from a single character. If a complete character is correctly formed, the character will perform a dance and you will hear their musical theme; if an incomplete character is formed, the musical theme heard will be partially from each of the characters you did create. Several levels of difficulty are included which dictate the time limit and which character needs to be created. In the easier levels, the character you must create will be indicated by text at the bottom of the screen. In the more difficult levels, you must create a character based on the theme song that plays.

What the press said at the time

Computer Entertainer Vol. 2 No. 2	May 1983	Graphics ★★★½ · Play-Action ★★★½
Video Games Player Vol. 2 No. 2	November 1983	A

“The colorful graphics should be very appealing to the age group for which the game is designed … STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE MUSICAL MATCHUPS is a charming game.”
— Computer Entertainer, May 1983

“The music and graphics on the screen are captivating. This is a good exercise for one player.”
— JoyStik, September 1983

“In fact, never before have so many different tunes been heard in one VCS cartridge. And one look at the Strawberry Land characters and you'll be awed by the graphics.”
— Video Games Player, November 1983

Computer Entertainer rated graphics first and play action second, from four symbols (excellent) to one (poor) — stars in most years, diamonds in 1986–87 — comparing each game only with other games for the same system. Video Games Player graded games like a report card, A+ down to C-.
