Here's a mix-and-match activity that turns you into the editor of a fashion magazine. You can dress your Moxie Girlz dolls by trying different outfits, hair, eye color and so on. Next, you stage a photo shoot, and take different photos, earning money that can be used to buy more accessories. The background music is a bit overbearing, as are the gender specific themes. The creativity doesn't get beyond multiple choice. Features include journal and diary options, Moxie Girlz quizzes and the ability to add your own photo to the game, providing you have a DSi (with a camera). All modes and gameplay focus on the "positive Moxie Girlz message of Be true! Be you!" (as long as you look like a model). Developed by 1st Playable for GameMill.
