2.0 out of 5 stars Worst "Tycoon" Game I've Played So Far, April 28, 2007

This review is from: Coffee Tycoon for PC (CD-ROM)

I recently became a big fan of several games in the "Tycoon" series - I really enjoy learning about, and seeing how my actions/decisions impact the feasibility of various businesses & communities. So, when I came across an offer to download "Coffee Tycoon" & try it out for free (for 1 hour of gameplay), I was excited to begin another Tycoon adventure - but I wound up being really disappointed!

In "Coffee Tycoon" you own a series of coffee shops, with your job being to manage the employees, menu, store upgrades, etc... to get to the point where your company has earned 1 million dollars. It's a great concept but, with this particular game, it's difficult to see how your choices impact what is happening. Most things appear to occur by chance - things like problems with orders, leases running up, management issues, etc... occur & yet these are all things that you have no control over.

In all of the "Tycoon" games I've played to date, you can easily see the connection between your choices & the results that occur, but in this game, the things that most impact your bottom line are things you aren't given a choice about. I found this to be quite frustrating!

Now, it may be that these choices become available later on in the game, once you've earned a lot of money - but in order to earn that money, I think it's important to see the value of your choices from the get-go - so you can make changes along the way that will lead to increased employee/customer satisfaction, and ultimately increased profits.

Overall this is the worst "Tycoon" game I've played so far - I wouldn't recommend it.

That's all this game is, click the button. You make choices but have no idea what those choices mean or how they affect the game. Then you click. And click. And click. And click. Make some more random choices. And click. And click. And click. And click.

I kept clicking thinking at some point the real game was going to start. But it never did. I just clicked. And clicked. And clicked. And clicked......

This review is from: Coffee Tycoon for PC (CD-ROM)

I didn't feel like I was playing a game. It seemed very random and very dull. I wanted to like it. I like most of the tycoon games and I love coffee. But, this game doesn't do it. I can't really even call it a game. It is boring.
