HeroCraft, the well-known Russian innovative mobile game developer and publisher has just announced the launch of its new 'Growing Pains' title.

Growing Pains is a selection of arcade mini-games based on the lives of five sisters, Helena, Victoria, Amy, Becky and Isobel. Helena has to pick the right outfit for the right occasion to bag herself a rich husband, Victoria must work hard as a waitress to earn money for a gig ticket, Amy has to practice her goalkeeping skills before the next big match, Becky must find a way to help her friends in the Math test and all Isobel’s concerned with is collecting her favorite toys and sweets.

Each mini-game is easy to pick up but hard to master, with bright colorful graphics and great characters. Growing Pains is fun for kids and young adults alike.

Obviously, the game's target, girls, will definitely want to play a game that reflects their everyday life. There's no question about it, racing cars and shooting bad guys can surely be fun but it’s not the way a girl would spend her average day. Growing Pains deals with the issues that really matter to girls: boys, fashion, music and money.

Boys aren't left outside of the gameplay either and can practice their goalkeeping skills, but only if they bear to do it by using a female avatar. Anything other than that is restricted to girls, so if you're a boy, spend your money on something else.

Some of the release's features include five exciting and challenging games, amusing individual storylines, bright colorful graphics and online hi-scores.

The game is compatible with most mobile phones that feature Java J2ME/MIDP support. Mobile gamers can buy it from the developer's website for a mere 5.5 US dollars.
