Barbie Project Friendship: A Heartwarming Adventure for All Ages

Barbie Project Friendship | $39.99 | PC | Console

Barbie Project Friendship is a well-rounded game that offers players the chance to dive into the world of Barbie, featuring the beloved duo Malibu Barbie and Brooklyn Barbie. With its engaging mini-games and quicktime events, the game provides a cohesive adventure centered around fixing up the Malibu Waves community center.


A Touching and Inspiring Story

Outright Games' Managing Director, Stephanie Malham, expressed her excitement about developing this title with her team. She said, "With a touching and inspiring story, amazing support from the television series cast, and a strong focus on accessibility for younger players, Barbie Project Friendship offers something for fans of all ages. Fans can now dive into this heartwarming adventure, with gameplay that is welcoming and accessible to everyone."


Immersive Voiceovers

The inclusion of actual voice actors from the show, makes the adventure even better. It immerses fans into their world, allowing them to read along or just listen if they prefer without the Barbie's sounding like bootleg copies of themselves. This makes the game more enjoyable. The creators of Zag Heroez Miraculous games could certainly take notes.

What better way to compare the voiceovers in the game than presenting an episode of the show?


Familiar Faces and Objectives

Barbie Project Friendship feels like an episode pulled right out of the show, featuring familiar faces and cohesive objectives that allow players to see their progress slowly but surely. With the support of Ann Austen, producer and developer of multiple Barbie animated shows like Barbie Dreamhouse Adventures and specials, the game stays true to what fans know and love about the newer Barbie TV shows.

Available Platforms

Barbie Project Friendship is available on PC, PlayStation, Xbox, and Switch for $39.99. Whether you're a longtime fan of the series or new to the world of Barbie, this game offers a delightful and accessible experience for everyone. I think girls ages 7+ will enjoy this game the most. Dive into the adventure and help fix up the Malibu Waves community center while enjoying the heartwarming story and engaging gameplay.

Women's Month: Women + Gaming!

During Women's History Month, my mind fondly turns to my mother, who played a pivotal role in introducing me to the world of console gaming. While it was a shared interest fostered by both my parents, with the tabletop Pac-Man arcade game as a nostalgic starting point, I credit my mother particularly. She was my steadfast companion in gaming, offering even greater encouragement for the passion we shared. Of course, my experience with my mom isn't just about gaming. It's important to counter the enduring stereotype that questions women’s interest in video games though, because I honestly didn't come from that. My mom, my female siblings, and my female cousins gamed (and still do). There's a certain pride in defying such narrow expectations. Existing in that grey area is a beautiful thing because we had a blast together... and some of you can say the same thing.

Reflecting on this theme, a situation from my past springs to mind. As a project manager for a game development project, I encountered resistance when I appointed a woman to a leading role within a department. The project was already underway, but they needed someone to bring structure... so I was brought in to make sense of it. Despite the urgency of our development timeline, this appointment unexpectedly became a controversial issue due to one team member's inability to accept her leadership. His reaction was so extreme that he shut down altogether. I was honestly like... WTF is this?

Confronted with this obstacle, I engaged in a sincere discussion with the disgruntled team member. His unease, as he revealed, stemmed from the false notion that reporting to a female leader was demeaning. My approach wasn't to embarrass him but to highlight the valuable experience and insight he forfeited by not acknowledging her expertise (which was far greater than he had). I emphasized the importance of being open to female leadership, which is an inevitable reality in any professional landscape (it just boiled down to where he'd end up working). It's irrational to jeopardize one's career because of a woman's leadership role. And it wasn't like she was being mean to him, she went by the book... followed objectives and everything ran smooth outside of that guy. That is... until I got his mind right.

Addressing such bias is crucial, and he had to be challenged on what his experience was (in one of a series of one on one meetings so that he understood that her experience exceeded his and it has nothing to do with her gender) – and not to generalize; this isn’t the mindset of all men which is a good thing but does it exist? Yes! Is it a win? No, undermining or contesting a woman's leadership based on gender can hold back the individual pushing prejudice (in this case sexism)... along with their growth. Don't let this be you.

Anyway, let's acknowledge and celebrate the women whose leadership has shaped some of the incredible games that enliven our leisure time and to the ladies who don't game... pick up a controller and game on! There are varioius options from casual games to the most challenging games that some guys even shy away from... because it's all about what you prefer to play.

By the way... don't miss out on the current Humble Heroines game bundle!
