Similar difficulties were in other objects that needed to be interacted with or climbed on. I was trying to climb up onto a higher level and had to come back to the ledge a couple times before I was allowed up.
Climbing up on a box or a ledge requires Barbie to be almost exactly in the middle of the object. Since getting all of the coins requires a lot of backtracking and careful navigation, this drags the game out much longer than it needs to. The control is awkward and slow and forces Barbie to slowly move around or slowly back her horse up to try again. The majority of the game is simple and approachable for kids to play and a good introduction to video game logic, but the execution leaves a lot to be desired. Getting all of them requires scouring the whole trail for every coin. These coins can be used to buy more outfits for Barbie to try on.
Other than the horses, coins are scattered throughout the map for Barbie to collect. The most interesting thing that happens in the whole game is the lassoing of the big horses that don't want to go back. To catch a foal, Barbie pets their head and leads them to a nearby hitching post so she can tie them up and call in to the stables on her cell phone. Sometimes this will be because Barbie needs to climb over an obstacle in order to clear the way, other times it's to rescuer one of the foals. Gameplay Barbie rides the horse most of the time, but when anything besides basic transportation needs to be taken care of, off the horse she goes. If anything, this game will teach girls that video games look and play terrible and that life is about getting presents and petting horses. What follows is a lot of slow walking and horse riding in order to find the lost horses. Obviously not going for a hardcore market or even a male market, or really anyone except for preteen girls, BHA:WHR is heading straight for the pink aisle.Ī bunch of horses get scared off by a lightning storm and head for the hills, leaving Barbie in charge of bringing them back. A girl and her horse, is there anything sweeter than that? Publisher Vivendi Universal didn't think so and got developer Blitz Games to make Barbie Horse Adventures: Wild Horse Rescue.
