Have you ever looked at "boy" toys? they have plenty of building sets, so it isn't unusual for a child to build things. However if you stereotype, then yes it is unusual for a little girl to build things. And I don't mean building blocks but building thing from wood using hammers and nails. I'm not going to whine about reinforcing gender roles, but a beauty pageant?And she isn't that different from barbie, she only has bigger eyes and a darker complexion. so if you find blonds ugly then yes Licca/Lisa is prettier, but beauty is in the eye of the beholder ;)looks like a decent game overall, but I hope these young girls are not only being feed these "girl" games, if they are, then they are missing a whole lot of fun! And as someone who liked mario and sonic as a girl, I can say that yes I would have loved to play something like this, but ultimately, I would have chosen something more "masculine". Why? because mini-games are fun, but rpgs and action games outlive them. Personally I think that girl games should encompass action, rpg, and other genres, not just be collections of mini-games, because although mini-games are fun, they do not show the full range of gaming goodness./rant actually it’s nice to know that she isn’t restricted to only “girl” things and does build furniture.
