Originally released in September 2025, the game allows players to explore a variety of areas from the popular show, including Crafting World, Caturn, Mermaid-lantis, and Sweet Treat Mountain. Moment-to-moment gameplay consists of platforming, finding collectibles, and completing mini-games. Publisher Outright Games describes Gabby's Dollhouse: Party Ready designed around creativity and rewarding curiosity. The game also offers local multiplayer in the form of traditional split-screen co-op.
