When most people think of a gamer, they probably think of a nerdy, male teen sitting for hours in a chair or on a couch staring at a screen, mashing wildly at their controller. What most people don't know, is that 44% of gamers are women, and only 22% of game designers are women. The gaming industry needs to find ways to attract more women and not by making games more girly, for example not adding tons of pink and ponies. The gaming industry needs to make games unisex. A great example of a unisex game is Minecraft. It has different components> It does just revolve around action and explosions, you can experiment with blocks and building your dream house, or work with redstone and build a working computer. This game does just appeal to the stereotypical male or female.
-Games need to be more unisex. -The gaming community needs more females. -The gaming industry needs more female game designers.
