This game is pretty interesting, and it's not quite as derivative as a lot of games coming out these days. It does take a lot from Miss Management, but that was an awesome game, so this isn't a bad thing, and it's not Yet Another My Kingdom For The Princess Clone, thank goodness.

This game is pretty interesting, and it's not quite as derivative as a lot of games coming out these days. It does take a lot from Miss Management, but that was an awesome game, so this isn't a bad thing, and it's not Yet Another My Kingdom For The Princess Clone, thank goodness.
It's true like the other reviews say that there's a waiting mechanism, but it's no different than the waiting you do in most Time Management games. If everything happened at once, the game would be unplayable. The consequences of your action are delayed to allow you to go off and do something else while your customers eat, or your food cooks, or the like. That's how time management games work.
I will agree with the posters who said that the game could have used a bit more debugging. I found at least one instance so far where the tutorial broke when I had queued an activity before they expected me to do it, but it wasn't fatal. I just had to exit to the main menu and return, and it was fine. Totally manageable, and a great game. I recommend it. Show less
I recommend this game!

I just got this game on Thursday or Friday and I have played it through 3 times. I really like it. It's different from the same old gather rocks/gold/food TM game.
Pros:
Different story than other TM games
Different objectives "" '" ""

I just got this game on Thursday or Friday and I have played it through 3 times. I really like it. It's different from the same old gather rocks/gold/food TM game.
Pros:
Different story than other TM games
Different objectives "" '" ""
Easy to dive in without too much figuring out too many different actions yet challenging enough that the first time I played through that final level was pretty hard.
Cons:
Too short - I could have used some more levels
Not enough variety when you replay the game again and again.
I gave this 5 stars primarily because I am so happy when a new TM game comes out that is not rock/food/gold collecting. Show less

This is a fun game! There is no real 'against the clock' pressure, you can pretty much work at your own pace.
The game isn't going to win any awards, but I've enjoyed it for a distraction after work and study.
Don't dismiss this game straight away, give it a trial and see for yourself!
I recommend this game!

I like the game, and have found it a little easy, my biggest nitpick of the game is if you quit, you have to start the whole level all over again.

Great game with cute storyline! Some of the things that you get to do are hire people and hone their skills, get them to sell products and motivate each other.

Great game with cute storyline! Some of the things that you get to do are hire people and hone their skills, get them to sell products and motivate each other. As far as the business end of things goes, researching products to sell and increase your profits goes along with your goal - you're running your own business and want to be successful and get rid of your current boss. Complicated? Not at all! It's a bit of a different TM game and a welcome change for me. A great part of the game is that you don't need to click like crazy to get things done. Even though there is a timer on the level, it's not a high stress game and is enjoyable enough to be played over and over. I heartily recommend the game! Show less
