I'd rather take this woman's word over the opinions of that article's author. At least this woman's video is much more researched. This also comes from a feminist.

What are they playing? Candy Crush is my bet.

Dragon's Crown.  Atleast two of the people I regularly play Dragon's Crown with are female. 

It's a niche game though.  I'd say you're probably right about Candy Crush.

I'm seeing a clear trend of women age 35-55 with very simple mobile games on their IPhone.

The same women who drove 60% of Wii sales.



Don't copy random editorials.

Augen won't like that. No, no, he won't like it one bit.

She's out with her girl friends means I can hang out and play games for an evening. Woo hoo.

More context on which platforms they game on would be nice. I don't see that.


Yeah. I didn't even need to click on this thread to realize this is with mobile/social games thrown in. I bet the adult women demograph for console gaming is like, 0.5% haha

"gaming" is a very loose word in this case. Yes, if you include all the farmvilles and candy crushes and all those things no normal gamer considers to be games.

Lets not go overboard and think we're gonna get all barbie games now. This is for the very casual market. Those people are not "gamers". Probably dont even own a PC or console aswell.
