I might not be the target audience for Barbie, but I recognize that the games have sold literally millions of copies. They speak to girls and boys who love to decorate, hang out with their friends, and solve puzzles together. They love horse riding, dancing, snowboarding, and much more. The Barbie games have had nearly two dozen games since the early 90s, and in Barbie Rewind you'll get to play all of them, 16 games in all. Barbie Rewind delivers classic Barbie titles, reimagined with modern quality-of-life enhancements to allow them to be played on modern systems.
The team at Atari and Digital Eclipse could have easily released all of these games as-is, but instead they used the existing engine to not only bring these games to life, but also added an entire Barbie Dreamhouse Design Game as well!
In this new mode, you'll be able to access a massive catalog of real-world furniture and accessories from every decade of Barbie history – her legacy goes all the way back to 1962! As part of that trip through history, you'll be able to restore three iconic Barbie Dreamhouses from different eras, inspired by the look, fashion, and designs of each era. Long after you've beaten the game all over again, you can dive in and use all the goodies you've unlocked across all 16 games to include in each of Barbie's houses.
