Background edit

The Imagine series of games allows players to take on the role of various occupations, such as a fashion designer, rock star, movie star or teacher.[1] Ubisoft became a leader in publishing "games for girls" for the Nintendo DS and Wii through the Imagine, Ener-G, and Petz series.[2][3]

Reception edit

IGN stated that Imagine games vary wildly in quality, describing some games as "boring and soulless cash-ins that serves no purpose other than to financially take advantage of uninformed teenage girls" and others as "surprise hits [that] turned out pretty darn well."[4]
