About the game

What you do in a play session

Get ready to live the pink dream with "The Game of Life: Barbie Edition"! In this game, players are invited to dream big and embark on a stylish adventure in Malibu. Just imagine: cruising in your Dream Convertible towards a beach party, choosing a dream career (perhaps Pop Star or Marine Biologist?), and collecting the coolest accessories, like your friends, pets (dog and cat, of course!), and of course, your Dream House. The gameplay is in the classic "Game of Life" style, with good old spin and move, but with a special Barbie twist. Along the way, you accumulate "Dream Points," the currency of the moment. And pay attention: Action Cards can give you an extra boost of points for good deeds or even make you pass the ball (and the points!) to others. Oh, and for those who love setting trends, there's space for that too! Landing on a "Trendsetter" space allows you to launch a new fashion trend and earn points every time someone else spins your trend's number. The goal is simple: whoever reaches the final party with the most Dream Points wins! It's a great choice for those who want a light, fun experience with the glamour only Barbie can offer, perfect for families and fans of the doll.
