\"\"<\/a>If your little girl has always dreamed of being a fashion model, clothes designer, or manager of their very own mall, now they can imagine it with this new 3DS game. Imagine Fashion Life lets you shop and try on clothes, design outfits, pose for pictures, and walk the catwalk.<\/p>\n

First you\u2019ll design your character\u2019s look, eyes, skin color, hair, and more. Then you\u2019ll take your character on a story adventure through her beginnings in a career in fashion. You can choose to be a top model, fashion designer, or mall manager. But later on you\u2019ll be able to switch to different jobs at any time.<\/p>\n

In each job you\u2019ll play mini-games related to that profession. As a top model, you\u2019ll have to select the right pose and take enough pictures before the time runs out, keep in shape on a treadmill or trampoline by tapping the touch screen at the right time, or play a music rhythm game to keep in step while walking down the catwalk. As a fashion designer, you\u2019ll have to choose fabrics and trace outlines to make your own dresses, plus many more games and challenges.<\/p>\n

By completing mini-games and missions you\u2019ll earn money to use at the mall to buy clothes, accessories, decorations for your apartment, and gifts for your friends. You can even invite friends you\u2019ve made in the game to your apartment to give them a makeover, give them a gift, or offer them a drink. If they like what you give them, you\u2019ll earn friendship points. If they like you enough, they might introduce you to more friends. Only problem is that gift and drink giving is more or less a guessing game. You\u2019d think the fitness trainer would enjoy a glass of orange juice, but apparently not.<\/p>\n

Only other problem with the game is that some of the touch screen menus to select clothes and makeup aren\u2019t as intuitive as what I would like to see. But I guess it\u2019s not too bad of a game if you enjoy playing dress up and whatnot.<\/p>\n

Kid Factor:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Imagine: Fashion Life is rated E for Everyone with an ESRB descriptor of Mild Suggestive Themes. I guess that has to do with some of the outfits, but it\u2019s nothing worse than Barbie. Reading skill is a must, as everything is text based. If you have a girl who enjoys playing dress up and putting on makeup, she might like this game, too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
