Coolest Girl the Naughtiest
Holly Owen and Karyn Lanthois have released their controversial mobile game for teenage girls internationally: here are some of the comments on Coolest Girl in School, which was developed in Adelaide:
The UK’s largest mobile gaming website, www.pocketgamer.co.uk, reported “Mobile game in sex and drugs shame!” and asked “Is the Coolest Girl in School also the naughtiest?”
The Australian Family Association labelled the game ‘toxic’ but Canadian Professor of Psychology Sharon Lamb thinks Coolest Girl In School is “really tongue in cheek and, well, hysterical…. It’s the over the top part that makes it funny– one way girls can confront the real stuff is to satirize and laugh at it”.
