Dress-Up Games (2)
About dress-up games
Dress-up games focus on creativity: choosing outfits, colours, accessories and makeup to build a look. There is usually no timer and no way to fail, so the enjoyment comes from experimenting.
The two games here use different themes: one is a fashion show inspired by African traditions on a tropical island, the other is a 3D modelling and makeup game. Both are suitable for younger players and for anyone who likes styling and design.

About this category
This category collects dress-up and styling games. They are creative rather than competitive: there is no timer, no enemy and no losing, only choices about colour, pattern, accessories and mood. People who enjoy them often describe the appeal as a small design exercise that can be finished in one sitting. The name of the category is a convention used by many game sites; the games are enjoyable for anyone who likes styling, whatever their age or gender.
Making a better look
Good styling follows the same rules as everyday fashion: limit the number of colour families, put a pattern on one piece only, and use accessories for contrast. Our dress-up design basics guide explains these rules with examples. As with any game, take breaks: see healthy gaming habits.

Is there a time limit or score?
