Girly games

Stig · 31 May 2005, 05:56

Any suggestions for good Amiga games that can be enjoyed by a non-dyke 6yo?, I mean, something with pink gradients, pretty bullshit and stuff

Amiga1992 · 31 May 2005, 06:29

Have you tried puzzlers? They all seem to work for girls. Also cute platformers like Wonder Dog.

My sister used to go ga-ga with lemmings too.

Stig · 31 May 2005, 06:56

Hell I go ga-ga with Lemmings, just thought it wasn't that girly

My girlfriend is not 6 any more, but she goes crazy whenever I play Superfrog ("cuuuuuute!"). Seems to me that girls need something where even the walls have big, round eyes...

Got the ever gay Bubble Bobble but she doesn't seem to like it a bit

KombatSanta · 31 May 2005, 11:49

How about "puzzle bubble" aka "bust-a-move"? Or "Pang!"

Stig · 31 May 2005, 13:16

I've noticed she's more of a platformer gamer, but I'm still open to suggestions

Try MegaBall 3 or 4 (a breakout clone). The wife of an acquaintance played it a lot. And my girlfriend occasionally tries to top my years old highscores in it :P. Megaball 3 was shareware, 4 was commercial, but nowadays you can download it for free.

You can download the game from Al Mackey's (the guy who did the gfx/music for the game) website: http://www.almackey.com/megaball.html

Cool, let us know what she thought

Photon · 31 May 2005, 19:15

Nebulus all the way. I think the sequels have Pogosticks and robotic horses, even.

<-- not.

Mr_Modem · 31 May 2005, 19:37

I suggest Rodland. Very cute graphics!

NEBULUS ??? No way man. Sure it is cute. But I think it is to hard.

Try Superfrog or Rodland. She will love it.

Did you try Trolls and Wiz'n'Liz?

Could also try some of the 'frogger' style games. You know the ones where you have to guide the little animal across the road and stop it from being splatted by the evil car thingies? Those are awesome.

Puzzle Bobble could work, at least it did with my wife. The two player game is great, even my parents like it. I think it has never been portet to the Amiga, but are there any similar Amiga games?

There are some PD remakes @ AMINET.

Amiga1992 · 01 June 2005, 19:48

Remakes which are shit.

And let's not mention the horripilant Bubble Heroes.

Wiz n Liz is a sure girl winner

gimbal · 01 June 2005, 20:09

Fury of the Furries, Ugh, Chuck Rock 1 & 2, Joe & Mac, B.C. Kid, Baby Joe, lost vikings, prehistorik, Brian the Lion, out to lunch, silly putty

To name a few platformers. Now as for puzzle games:

Chip's Challenge, Clockwiser (that opening animation is so cute it sickens me), Brat, Super Skweek, Tiny Skweeks, the Power (also to cute for comfort), Antago

and you should definitely try out Wizzy's Quest, I know a couple of girls who are completely crazy about that game. This game is not in the HOL (probably PD), but I've seen it on a few emu websites.

That should get you going

BTW, my girlfriend is completely addicted to... Tetris. No kidding.
