Therefore, because everyone has to wait for various reasons, the forum of Ma Bimbo quickly became popular. Similarly, if you have reached the latest levels available, you need to wait weeks before getting new levels (Ma Bimbo adds around 10 new levels per year). It could be because you need to wait days to level up as you don't have enough money to purchase stuffs and don't want to buy credits. You can get these bimbos d'or through your Bimbo's job (you get access to new jobs every time you level up), doing games (completing puzzles or through a scratch card game) or by purchasing credits at the store.Īs fun as it sounds, the game can get really boring once you're stuck between 2 levels. To finish these tasks you need money (aka "bimbos d'or"). So how does this game work? You start off as a basic Bimbo and to level up you need to finish tasks involving cliché bimbo stuffs such as getting a hot (or, sometimes, a sugar daddy) boyfriend (whose name is a pun on famous celebrities such as Leonardo DiCarpaccio, Will Snif or George Cloned) or ditching him, getting plastic surgery (mainly breast augmentation/reduction, lip injections or rhinoplasty), going to the spa for treatments (tanning or exfoliation, depending on the level) or makeup, go shopping, get an haircut etc.
However, with such a concept, target audience and popularity, the game was also highly criticized by the French media for promoting the use of plastic surgery and dieting as well as pushing an 'ideal' body image to impressionable young girls and connecting it to success in life. Though the community has dwindled over the years (now I believe the community only counts a few thousand players), at its peak (2008-2012), Ma Bimbo was the shit. It used to have a US version called and later but the website was closed as it never took off. Since its launch, Ma Bimbo has been exported to 7 European countries (UK, Germany, Spain, Italy, Poland and Russia) and Brazil. This game gathers all types of people, from pre-teen and teen girls to 50+ years old adult women as well as a tiny minority of men. With over 21 million+ accounts registered on the website in span of 13 years (note: Ma Bimbo's staff doesn't delete abandoned accounts), Ma Bimbo is one of the biggest online simulation game for girls in France. Created in 2007, Ma Bimbo (French for My Bimbo) is a French online simulation game which parodies the concept of a "bimbo" and is mainly geared at young girls and teenagers.
