Queen Mal Mistress of Evil

A purple-haired queen stands in the middle of the screen the second Queen Mal Mistress of Evil loads. Her base look is already on, so your first job is picking a direction. Tap a category on the side menu and the panel slides open with thumbnail cards. Tap a card and the change appears on her instantly, so you can compare two options by tapping back and forth.

The wardrobe splits into hair, tops and dresses, jackets, legwear, shoes, and accessories. There are full gowns with long trains, cropped jackets that sit over them, striped tights, heeled boots, and crowns or horns for the head. Hair comes in long waves, braids, and updos in colors ranging from lavender to near-black. Pieces layer the way you would expect. The jacket goes over the dress, and removing the dress underneath changes how the whole silhouette reads.

The twist in this makeover game is the dark magic angle. Alongside the ballgowns there are scaled mermaid tails, fairy wings, and villainous capes, so one character can swing royal or wicked depending on your picks. When you finish, the game saves your look and shows her posed on a full-screen portrait you can keep or redo.

Work in this order to get a strong result. Pick the hair first, since its color decides whether your gown choices should lean pastel or shadowy. Then choose a dress with a big silhouette and add a short jacket over it, because the contrast reads better than two long layers. The horns and crown can be worn together, and most players miss that.
