I’ve literally been searching for the past five years for the name of these girls games I played when I was younger. I just about gave up when I saw this. DIVASTARZ

I used to be obsessed with this game where people would come down an escalator and you would have to put them in the shop they wanted, and I cannot remember anything but that and I have no clue what it is. Can anybody help me?

I think I know what you’re taking about! Did they also have little puppies in their purses?
