Girl Games with Sarah Maria Griffin

Girl Games with Sarah Maria Griffin

By Justice for Dumb Women

Gaming used to be for everybody, like Lego. But somewhere around the early noughties gaming became extremely gendered, with first person war shooters dominating mainstream gaming and “girl” games arrived. We talk The Sims, Harvest Moon, Pokemon, Stardew Valley, tv and movie franchise games, horse riding games, a little bit of Zelda, and a little bit of Skyrim. We also discuss Gabrielle Zevin’s Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow, and finish with recommendations for new gamers. Recs include:


Wandersong

Chicory

A Short Hike

Cult of the Lamb

Boyfriend Dungeon

Going Under 

Wychwood

What Remains of Edith Finch
