Wedding Dress Up Games
Tito Pontilan
Online games have been designed to cater to the tastes of the male gender since first instance this form of recreation hit the internet. Today with the increasing popularity of social networks like Facebook and life simulation games such as Sim City, more and more of these games have been developed with women in mind. Popular amongst these are the dress up games. Amongst these, wedding dress up games constitute a significant portion.
These games fall under the category of Flash games. This means that unlike the traditional multiplayer online games played by men, these games do not need to be downloaded before they can be played. All one needs is a browser like Firefox, Internet Explorer, or Opera, to name a few of the more popular browsers.
Many social networks actually provide their users access to many of these games. It is another avenue for socialization. Nearly all wedding dress up games provide their users with the means to save pictures of the ensembles they put together. These can then be compared to those made by their friends or posted on their online photo albums so other people can admire what their creativity produced. People may make comments depending on whether the person posting allows it. These are actually nice conversation starters that women of differing ages can relate to and enjoy chatting about.
These dress up games can even be used to generate ideas which may be used at real life weddings. At this stage, however, the veils, gowns, accessories, bouquets, jewelry, shoes, and makeup that a player can choose from is very limited. One can compensate though by playing not just one of these games but by playing a host of those which allow pictures to be taken. This way, one can get around the natural limitation of this type of game.
As more and more women come to enjoy and patronize games on the internet, it will not be surprising to find dress up games in the future as advanced as the multiplayer online games that the men play.
