Work your way toward grocery management stardom! Keep customers happy and earn profit. Multi-manage stocking shelves, growing flowers, making pies, keeping the store clean, and assisting customers. Fun and pretty game that keeps you on your toes! Challenging in terms of prioritizing tasks and upgrades and fast paced.
If you are looking for your basic "Northern Tale" type of game, Country Tales will not disappoint. Somewhat entertaining, but not exciting or challenging...not a stand out in any way shape or form.
I don't recommend this game.

This game is very close to being good...that said, it isn't.
Pros: The game is challenging and you can tell the developers put some thought into it. This game reminds me of a mesh between Kate's Fix it Up and Airport Mania (though a lesser version of both).
Cons: You only get about 6 hours of total play time. Also, the mouse controls are very frustrating (the game often "misinterprets" what you mean to click on).
I don't recommend this game.

My Singing Monsters
Collect, breed, and listen to your monsters sing, you have never seen a game like this before!
Such an adorable little game! Breed new monsters daily to create the ultimate orchestra!
Sort of Virtual Villagers inspired...This is not an interactive game where you sit down for an hours play time; rather you check back in the morning to see what new little cutie hatched over night. Cool game for those who work a desk job and can check in from time to time to see how their little family is doing!
I recommend this game!

Please don't waste your time or money on this one! I was expecting a "new age" "Miss Management" (which is such a great game!)...but this game comes nowhere close!
There is no strategy or even real game play! Just click your employees (over and over) directing them to sell or advertise. I don't understand why the developers even bothered.
Truly, this is the most wasteful game I have ever come across!
I don't recommend this game.

Manage a multi-tank fish shop where you are responsible for your fish health, breeding, sales, etc. The game is progressive - as you advance through levels, new fish and tank fixtures become available; but the actual gameplay is separated into individual levels of 5-10 minutes each where goals may range from "breed 10 beta fish" to "earn $1000 in sales." Great game that takes the best of tycoon and time management and seamlessly incorporates them into one.
I recommend this game!

Great game, sort of a simplified version of Rollercoaster Tycoon. Paradise Beach doesn't quite afford the creative liberties that R.C.T. offers, but the basic concepts remain the same...build a dream park that is beautiful, functional, fiscally efficient, and satisfies the desires of your guests.
Build-up six barren islands into dream resorts. Each island has an average of five 10-15-minute levels associated with it. Level goals range from "make 300 guests smile" to "build two 3-star cinemas." Your island development is progressive within each consecutive level in each island location. .
This game definitely will appeal to those who enjoy "tycoon" games and/or enjoy "designing" or "building" games. Invloves time-management and multi-tasking...challenging gameplay; but moreover, it's just really fun to make a beautiful resort personalized to your own aesthetic
I recommend this game!

Monument Builders: Notre Dame
With great new graphics, unlockable videos and even more exciting challenges, you’ll love every minute of this amazing adventure through architectural history!
Nothing too original or unexpected here. Clear roads and build production buildings. Play time is about 5 minutes per level. Goals/levels are a bit redundant...the game doesn't really develop as you progress...
I don't recommend this game.

Plight of the Zombie
Satisfy your never-ending hunger for brains in this light-hearted zombie puzzle game.
Refreshing to play a game that has a new format/concept! I'd put this game more under a strategy or arcade category than time management. Plot the path of your zombie(s) through warehouse corridors in efforts to eat brains and turn those menacing humans into your zombie friends! - requires strategy and timing. Control four different zombie characters/personalities each with unique special powers!
Great little game so why only the 4 stars? Not many hours of game time and controlling the movement of your zombies is a bit awkward/difficult...found myself yelling at the screen "No! That's not fair! I didn't mean to do that!"
I recommend this game!

Rush for Gold: Alaska
Help the old mayor and his rag-tag group of gold prospectors by building, fighting and trading.
I'm perplexed by the positive reviews this game received...At a glance, it appears to be your typical "pathway" "MKFTP" sort of game, which frankly I'm a bit tired of by now but generally hold my interest. Hard to put my finger on it exactly, but there is something about this particular game that I disdain...it's ugly and annoying.
More "clicky" than strategy based...You have to click your resource buildings to send your worker to collect food, gold, etc. over and over (like 20 times per level) - why would this be enjoyable for anyone? So yes, the level of challenge is there, you have to be quick clicking your buildings to collect "150 food" before time runs out, but I much prefer to exercise my brain than my index finger.
