So boring, it should be called Boring Tycoon [Posted on 2004-08-13] This game truly is the worst tycoon games I've ever seen! The graphics are horrible (it's almost impossible to tell the alphabets apart), the sound is awful and sometimes there's no sound at all (unless it's raining). You can't even see your own character and the only expressions that you can get from the customer for your lemonade are:
-bad
-good
-too much sugar
-too expensive
9/10 times, the customer will think you make really bad lemonade which is very very frustrating. For example, I tried nearly 40 times before I found the right recipe for the lemonade. Which by the way is all the sugars, all the lemonade and all the ice cubes.
Another thing that I find very annoying about this game is its repetitive buying of ingredients. You can't buy too much but you also can't buy too little. For example, if you buy 200 ice cubes, they will melt but if you buy too little, you will go out of stock.
I still haven't figured out the point of having the LSX (lemonade stock exchange). I think it's just there for no obvious reasons. And also, you don't have any opponent. Your opponent is yourself. That is, when you load the game you have to chose all the company names (which would become your opponent). For instance, if you chose WWW for your company name then you have to type in yourself your opponent's company name. Say if you chose EEE, then you have to first be EEE and then be WWW so WWW would have an opponent in the LSX. I do not understand the point of doing this.
The senarios are also really stupid. For example, a scenario would be something like:
- National high temperature
- Citizens raid Town centre
etc.
I hope my review was helpful to you. Please do not buy! It's for your own good.
Incredibly Boring [Posted on 2004-12-11] Takes only a couple of days to totally get the hang of this game. After you've bought all the upgrades, it's just a matter of buying ingredients and selling lemonade at the Hexa stadium. Mind-numbing.
THE BEST GAME EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! [Posted on 2005-03-06] THE BEST GAME EVER. THE GRAFIXS R WEAK BUT THE OVERALL QUALLITIE OF THE MAKES THE RECOVERIE FOR IT. TAKES A LOT OF SKILL 2 GET A GOOD BUISSENESS RUNING
Relaxing game [Posted on 2005-04-30] I really liked this game because it teaches the basics of business instead of making all the rules complicated. One step at a time learned business rules take a businessman a long way.
FUN AND ADDICTING AS ROLLER COASTER TYCOON [Posted on 2006-05-31] Lemonade Tycoon was great fun, but I wish it went furthur in the game and challenged you more after you got all the upgrades(ice machine, cash register..). Great fun. Great for Elementary School kids to learn basics of business too!! I recommend to buy.
