This game is similar to Life Quest etc. but it's grittier and a bit more "real" in some ways because it gets at the emotional effects of life struggles.
As with the other games, you need to get a job, get a place to live, feed yourself, so to school, buy stuff etc. This game places a lot more emphasis on how you FEEL - are you happy or sad? Are you tired or energetic? Sadness and exhaustion build ...Show more
This game is similar to Life Quest etc. but it's grittier and a bit more "real" in some ways because it gets at the emotional effects of life struggles.
As with the other games, you need to get a job, get a place to live, feed yourself, so to school, buy stuff etc. This game places a lot more emphasis on how you FEEL - are you happy or sad? Are you tired or energetic? Sadness and exhaustion build on themselves - if you're exhausted, you sleep late and have less time the next day to accomplish things, which makes you more tired.
There are more opportunities for fun in this game than in some others. You can visit a museum, a water park, a circus. I also liked that you can save your money in the bank and earn interest.
The graphics are poor and depressing, frankly. But that adds to the vibe of the game. Show less
I recommend this game!

LOVE this game...play it at least once a week! There are definite strategies to making the money you need just to meet your needs...but once you find your "path", the money will be rolling in! Love the extras in this game, do wish they had dating/marriage/child(ren) as part of the choices. BFG, tell the game designers it IS possible to have both a career AND family! LOADS of fun!
I recommend this game!

It is a good strategy game - some timed elements - and that is part of the fun - not overwhelming - and what the heck! you get a second chance if you don't meet the time limit. buying clothes, houses , cars new jobs and don't forget to eat or you are penalized!

I don't know which game came out first this game or Life Quest but they are basically the same game. I do like both. Path to Success has got a great variety of task to keep a person busy. I also like this game because it can be played over and over trying to improve your score.The task get harder at a good pace so you won't get over whelmed.
I recommend this game!

This game was far more interesting then I thought it would be when I first downloaded it. For me at any rate, it became addictive to see what I could get accomplished next. Each level offered its own challenges, but gave you time to make them. After the first time I played it through I was actually disappointed, thinking: "This is it, I'm done. But I didn't get to buy everything I wanted." That is ...Show more
This game was far more interesting then I thought it would be when I first downloaded it. For me at any rate, it became addictive to see what I could get accomplished next. Each level offered its own challenges, but gave you time to make them. After the first time I played it through I was actually disappointed, thinking: "This is it, I'm done. But I didn't get to buy everything I wanted." That is when I played it through creating a second character and actually added my own twist to the game, that of seeing how much I could get done in one level that would be used/needed in the next. The nice part about this game is that it isn't over challenging for the first time players. But for the advanced Big Fish Gamer; having bought over 65 games and played countless others; there was enough to keep my interest and come back and play it through more then once. The only draw back I have to the game, is that I couldn't go back once it was finished/won and replay it with the same character or even go back and replay levels as I was playing to try and win that level. Regardless, I will create new characters and replay it in the future. Show less
