Actually Fun and Addicting, May 30 2004

This review is from: Mall Tycoon 2 (CD-ROM)
As you can see in other reviews other people didnt have any luck getting it to work. But for me it is actually one of the few I HAVE got to work. Now i had a tough time deciding whether to give this a 3 or 4 star rating. First of it is a very fun game, and it is pretty simple laying down florring and shops. But the hard part was managing the money. I had the hardest time trying to find a happy medium trying to place how much each shop payed in rent and how much of their income I got.If you placed it to high the store would run out of business,to low you wouldnt make any money. But finally after an hour or two of experimenting I found something that was atleast making me a profit and keeping the stores around.
So I gave it four stars because it is fun and addicting. And as I said before it is easy to lay ou shps and stuff like that. So I would say buy it.

Super Mall Tycoon 2, Sep 24 2003

I have just bought Mall Tycoon 2 and its one of the best tycoon games I have ever played and I have most of them. I also have the previous version, Mall Tycoon 1 and it was ok but no where near as much fun as this one. The graphics, now 3D people, the music, the gameplay, everything has been improved from the previous game. I see its a new developer who has done this one and it shows. I enjoyed trying to build our local mall and I can get very close to it. Its amazing, if they only had the stores with their right names, you would think you were actually there. The first person mode is really cool, you can walk right around the mall and even go into the stores.
If you want a good tycoon game, I recommend this one HIGHLY

Cant even play this game. A total waste., Oct 7 2003

What a waste of 30+ dollars. I had purchased the original, and even though had so many problems operating it. Due to numerous bugs, contained in the game. Figured, with this new title. They would have put out a better product. Only to find out I was sadly mistaken. This company sells you a non useable game. I put the game in, it crashes back down to the desktop. I did all the things the the tech support website instructed. to run it, still crashes. They have no live tech support, just an email address, and a website. Where, hundreds of people have posted complaints about the same issue, that I have. You would think the company would get back to thier customers about this issue, it has been over 2 months, and have not gotten an email, or a reply, to the website, no patch nothing. The company, and the game is a rip off. Another poster obviously got thier game to work, who posted such a great review for this game. But, I am here to attest. That this game is a waste. For the sake of those thinking about purchasing this game. Take a look at thier tech support website@ globalstarsoftware.com read about all the complaints others are having about this game. Before u go and waste your money. Just trying to help a fellow gamer out.
