"Barbie: Super Model" for the Sega Genesis, developed by Tahoe Software Productions and published by Hi Tech Expressions in 1992, invites players into the world of fashion and modeling with the iconic doll, Barbie, as their guide. Players embark on an adventure with Barbie as she navigates various modes of transportation around town, whether by car, on foot, or otherwise. The objective is to assist Barbie in preparing outfits suitable for her role as a runway model.

Each level, Barbie embarks on a journey from left to right with forced scrolling. Initially, she maintains a standard pace, but can accelerate if needed. Maneuvering up and down, Barbie navigates aiming to avoid collisions. If she hits one, she loses a chance and it’s game over if she runs out of chances.

Each level has a unique theme, ranging from driving through Hollywood to roller skating in Hawaii, walking in the snow during a Vail vacation, and biking through the bustling streets of New York City. Players encounter memory-testing sections like styling Barbie to resemble the image on a magazine cover, where the magazine cover is hidden from view, or recall Barbie's moves for an upcoming fashion show.

Overall, "Barbie: Super Model" may appeal to Barbie enthusiasts due to its interactive elements, but is probably not intersting for gamers in general. Visually, the graphics are decent, but the gameplay is simplistic and slow-paced. The biggest problem with the game is the low challenge level (except for the memory games), and the stereotypical focus on fashion and appearance.
