Dress Up Rush
Posted by Luna Cruz on October 18th, 2008 in Reviews

I’m a big fan of fashion, so make it the topic of a click-management game and you had me at “hello clothes!” Dress Up Rush is in the same family of games as Jane’s Realty and Jane’s Hotel - this time, Jane uses her elegant fashion sense to start her own dress shop.

System Mania
Posted by Luna Cruz on October 15th, 2008 in Reviews

If you’ve ever felt your wrist and hand cramp up from clicking too much in a casual game, you might want to try System Mania. Its innovative use of mouse gestures will make you rethink what a click-management game is supposed to be like. Top it off with cute art and wacky levels and we’ve [...]

Home Sweet Home 2: Kitchens and Baths
Posted by Luna Cruz on October 10th, 2008 in Reviews

Who’d have thought that kitchens and bathrooms would be the subject of a Top 10 game? Apparently, people really enjoy building toilets and kitchen sinks on their computers, and Home Sweet Home 2: Kitchens and Baths lets you do exactly that. It’s quite deceptive, how they did it: you think it’s just an interior decorating [...]

Cake Mania 3
Posted by Luna Cruz on September 6th, 2008 in Reviews

Fresh from the oven is Cake Mania 3, released last weekend by Sandlot Games. When a game has reached its third instalment you know it has to be good, because enough people have clamored for more. And the long and short of this review is: if you loved the first two Cake Mania games, you’ll [...]

Fashion Dash
Posted by Luna Cruz on August 10th, 2008 in Reviews

Fashion Dash is a typical click-management game, similar to its Dash series sisters - Diner Dash, Dairy Dash, Wedding Dash, etc. In Fashion Dash, you play Coco, Flo’s friend (remember Flo?), who’s a costume designer for a dance show on TV. When the show gets cancelled, Coco finds herself out of a job - and [...]

Jenny’s Fish Shop
Posted by Luna Cruz on August 7th, 2008 in Reviews

You know a game is good when the 60-minute trial is suddenly over before you know it, and you feel rudely interrupted because you still wanted to keep playing. That’s what happened to me with Jenny’s Fish Shop. It’s a click-management game, where your character Jenny starts a fish-selling business - from a small “hut” [...]

rating ★★★½☆

Ranch Rush
Posted by Jianyang Tan on July 15th, 2008 in Reviews

Ranch Rush could be easily dismissed as another “typical” farm management game, considering the number of them released as of late. The game’s title doesn’t sound like much either, but if you’re willing to look beyond that modest first impression, just ten minutes into the gameplay and you’ll be quite fascinated.

rating ★★★★☆

Sunshine Acres
Posted by Jianyang Tan on July 12th, 2008 in Reviews

In terms of game design, Sunshine Acres takes after Farm Frenzy, another solid title released not too long ago by Alawar. The game is essentially fast-paced time-management, where the focus is on building up your productivity, rather than just completing tasks. Each level lasts usually around four to six minutes, but within that short time [...]

Helen Gardener
Posted by Jianyang Tan on June 17th, 2008 in Reviews

Being someone who has a liking for business simulations and arcade entertainment, click-management games have a special appeal for me, because they bring in nicely the best of both worlds. These games fix my cravings for fast-twitch action and management all at once. While Helen Gardener isn’t exactly anything too grand, I did still have [...]

Balloon Express
Posted by Nick Kojima on December 25th, 2007 in Reviews

Taking the casual game standard of saving “relative X” by starting a business that involves giving “thing Y” to a number of customers by way of a puzzle challenge, Balloon Express follows in the tradition of a dozen other “service games.” In this case, you get to take a balloon filled with mail and deliver [...]
