Dress Up Games Experiment – Part 1
July 3rd, 2009 by admin
Many of the Dress-Up games try to get a player to ignore this fact by diverting their attention towards something else. Some tactics I’ve seen include, but are not limited to: a pop song playing in the background, a multitude of dresses, sparkles or a “goal” of dressing up to meet the dreamy guy at the cafe. I frequently find myself just clicking on the “show” or “complete” button as soon as the game starts, the cell phone reverse look up sending my paper avatar out to her night on the town in nothing but her discount store undergarments. By adding this layer of humor to the game, I then increase the implicit value of the game for my own consumption.
