Popular Online Games For Women

With over 40 million American women who play online games, it’s no wonder that are a huge variety of popular games for women.

Girls shouldn’t be shoehorned into playing only certain types of games, because female gamers enjoy cerebral challenges, social gaming and adventures just like guys do.

You’ll notice on our list of popular games for women that there is a wild selection, from traditional games like solitaire to the kind of fashion games you would expect to those MMORPG types that are synonymous with violent young male gamers.

Zuma

Zuma is an adventure game and puzzle game where you search around a jungle, exploring hidden temples and evading traps and other tricks. You’ll fire fireballs to forestall the chains from killing you. If it doesn’t sound so great to you, know that Zuma has spawned a sequel and that women seem to love playing the game.

Solitaire

There are literally hundreds of types of solitaire, but Klondike and Spider Solitaire seem to remain the favorite online games for people. Women are no different. Solitaire is a game designed to be played by one person, so it’s no wonder this card game is so popular for single online gamers. The great thing about Solitaire is you can play the game almost as an afterthought, while doing something else.

Cooking Dash

In this busy world where no one seems to have time anymore, why someone would enter a virtual world to play a time management game is beyond me, but that’s what Cooking Dash is about: time management. That being said, Cooking Dash is a game you see people playing all the time these days, either online on their computer or as a cellphone or iPod application. I know one guy who playing “Cooking Dash” with his teenaged daughter; it’s something they can have in common.

Cooking Dash lets you run your own restaurant. Create a menu, upgrade your eatery and keep the customers happy while you try to become the best restauranteur you can be. The challenge is mainly getting food to the table on time, before your customers get angry and walk out.

Stardoll – I-Dressup

Stardoll and I-Dressup are fashion games that let you select clothes and hairstyles for your virtual characters. Both of these games appeal to tweens and teen girls, who appear to play these games while multitasking on homework or conversations with their friends. It’s really amazing seeing a teenaged girl play an online fashion game on her phone while looking through her own warddrobe, gossiping about the guys at school and studying for the history test.

World of Warcraft

Believe it or not, 20% of the players on WoW are women. I’m guessing “World of Warcraft” is a good way to get out latent aggression, possibly against the male race. Watch out, though; World of Warcraft is addictive. A recent survey showed that women who play WoW spend 23 hours a week playing the game, on average. Wow!

Horseland

Horseland lets you play a virtual horse breeder and trainer. You select your horse, train it for show jumping competitions and then put test your skills riding the horse at 3D jumping shows. Also an option for dog breeding and dog shows.

Azada: Ancient Magic

The sequel to the adventure game, Azada, is a big hit with the ladies. Strangely enough, while trying to find hidden objects throughout this virtual landscape, you end up helping figures from literature like King Arthur and Count Dracula. “Azada: Ancient Magic” requires problem solving and puzzle solving, so get your mind ready for some thinking.

Sudoku

Speaking of puzzle solving, Sudoku is one of the most popular puzzle games in live or online gaming. Sudoku looks like a crossword puzzle with numbers, so it intimidates people who fear math, but Sudoku is really about using deductive reasoning and logic to solve puzzles.

Once again, studies show that women enjoy cerebral games more than men, so Sudoku might be right up your alley.

Second Life – The Sims

Second Life and all of the “Sims” games remain popular with women. These are the games where you develop an online avatar in a world not unlike our own. Find love, play the field or just go about your mundane (online) existence. It sounds like it would have no allure for people living another mundane life, but Second Life is a huge pop culture phenomenon and these games do something real world living can’t do: freed from any real consequences or gender identities, you can explore a whole other side of your personality.

Wedding Dash

Okay, let’s fall into a stereotype here. “Wedding Dash” is a game where you get to plan weddings. Just tell yourself this isn’t wish fulfillment and you’re just seeing what it would be like to have a career as a wedding planner. Wedding Dash is growing in popularity for women. Guys? Not so much.

So there are 12 different gaming options that are popular with women right now. The variety is fairly astounding, so if you’re a woman searching for a good online game or a game to play as a cellphone app, surely one of the games above will be to your liking.
