Amazon currently has the LEGO Friends
for Nintendo 3DS handheld game console on sale for $29.96, a 25% discount off of the regular price of $39.99.
Based on the game trailer, it doesn’t seem to be doing much to break the gender stereotypes that the Friends line is infamous for, and in fact probably perpetuates them more than anything. There aren’t any reviews online yet that I could find, and it’s not surprising considering the game and the market it’s aimed for. Not to say that girls don’t play video games, but that it is a smaller market and plus it’s based on a niche product line. The game play doesn’t seem to be very deep. The game feels like a collection of mini games you traverse your way through. In any case, take a look for yourself and decide if the game is even worth picking up.
