Hi, I have a primary school girl who wants her share of gaming on the family android tablet.

While finding open source or commercial games with no ads that boys like is doable, I haven’t been able to find the kind of games a girl wants:

  • with cute graphics
  • where you care for dolls or pet
  • no ads or subscriptions, no endless DLC.

Do you have any recommendations for android games that fit the bill?

The image is a screenshot of cry babies, a game that she’d like to play very much but constantly nags you to buy new content.

    You know what is a great android game for girls… Any good android game. And that’s because girls are people. They have a diverse set of interests and are not one single thing.

      well done you! instead of meeting the OP half-way by trying to understand their requirements, you chose to shame them on the easiest of technicalities. Rest well tonight, good warrior, you’ve earned your propers.

      As I said before: I absolutely agree. I just typed the description she gave me of the game she wants.

        No worries. Just phrase as “What are some android games that are good for kids, age X - X, with a traditionally feminine or “girly” aesthetic?”

        That asks your same question, without implying (intentionally or not) that all girls are a “princess that likes pink”
