Princess Annie Nails Salon

Princess Annie Nails Salon is about as focused as a manicure game gets. Annie has just opened her new nail salon, and the first client in the chair is effectively Annie herself: you help her pick the perfect colour for her nails and the right accessories to go with them.

That narrow brief is the honest summary of the game. Oscar Intermed’s description does not promise a queue of customers, a spa stage or a design editor — it names two decisions, colour and accessories, and leaves the rest to taste. It is a good fit for younger players or for anyone who wants a quick, uncomplicated session.

Because there are only two choices, the colour carries the look. Whatever the palette on offer, a soft shade reads as everyday and sweet, while a deep one reads as evening and confident. Pick that first, then use the accessories to underline it rather than compete with it. The tags file the game under salon and princess themes, which sets the mood: polished, pretty and royal.

1. Meet Princess Annie at her new nail salon.
2. Look through the polish colours.
3. Choose the shade for her nails.
4. Add accessories that suit the colour.

Choose the colour with the accessories in mind. A bold shade needs quieter extras, while a soft polish can take a little more sparkle.
