Jojo's Fashion Show 2 is a fun time-management game involving some great wardrobes and gameplay for the iPhone and iPod touch. With hopes of being the next big fashion designer, the task is to assemble as many matching outfits as possible during various public events. A brand new photo shoot mode provides the unique perspective of a fashion photographer being judged on the quality of their snapshots. The game boasts 50 levels of gameplay and up to 8 hours of unique playing time.
The first detail which caught my eye was the high-resolution artwork used throughout the game. The quality of the images is superb and adds a lot of refinement to the game. The music is excellent and blends right into the gaming experience.
The gameplay is easy to learn and consists of finger dragging various articles of clothing to the corresponding body part on the appropriate model. This works relatively well if you drag straight up out of the clothing area. If done diagonally, unfortunately, the article will stubbornly disappear. Whether an intended effect or not, I found that very distracting. The photo shoots are a lot of fun and a highlight and great change of pace. Tilting the device left or right pans the models dressed in their respective genres. Finger dragging moves the camera frame and a picture is taken when the finger is lifted. These controls are nearly perfect and quite fluid.
Jojo's Fashion Show 2 packs a bunch of gameplay in a moderate price tag. The sounds effects are top notch and for the most part the controls work really well. The graphics are a thing of cartoon beauty and a joy to look at. I would highly recommend this game to any lover of fashion or if you enjoy time management games like Sally's Spa.
