Doll Maker's Diary, Part 24: Fairy Tale Scene Maker and Other Doll Game Discoveries

Doll Maker's Diary, Part 24: Fairy Tale Scene Maker and Other Doll Game Discoveries

Recently, I have been trying out another one of the various Azalea's Dolls Flash games on the Internet - specifically, the Fairy Tale Scene Maker. It is quite similar to the Goddess Scene Maker, but instead of a Greco-Roman theme, it is heavily inspired by Grimm's Fairy Tales and adaptations thereof. Here are a few examples of artworks I created using this game.






 Above, from top: Examples of artworks made using the Fairy Tale Scene Maker.

You can have up to eight characters (which can be either male or female) in a scene at any one time. As usual, the first few menus are reserved for the character's basic appearance (face, skin tone, hair style and color, etc.); the next few ones after that are about the color and type of the clothes they will wear - underwear, tops, skirts, pants, shoes and so on. From here you can add accessories, from jewelry and hand mirrors to books and even weapons, among other things. You also have three backgrounds to choose from: a village, a path leading to a castle, and a dense forest.

In addition, I stumbled upon a few discoveries when trying other games on the site:
  • You do not have to make every character that you created in a Goddess game artwork be (or look like) an ordinary human being - you have the option to give them mermaids' tails or angels' wings. Moreover, you can add babies to your artworks - cute enough on its own, but heartwarming when you consider the fact that some characters in Greco-Roman mythology actually were descended from gods. And you can customize them as well - although your options for those are much more limited compared to the ones available for fully grown human(oid)s.
  • The Four Elements game begins with a quiz containing 10 questions, each of which has four possible answers; once every question has been answered, the game will select a theme based on your responses. Further details on this process (and the game to which it belongs) will be shown in a future post in this series.
  • The Lord Of The Rings Dress Up Game is actually split up into three different games: one for creating scenes with nothing but Hobbits, another devoted exclusively to dwarves, and yet another for creating scenes with other types of characters (humans, elves, etc). However, all of them share many customization options with the Tudors and Game of Thrones Dress Up Games.
This concludes my summary of my recent discoveries on the Azalea's Dolls website; stay tuned for further updates.
