Better than Elvis [Posted on 2003-05-24]
Looks like it is going to be one of those boring number twiddling games but is in fact a lot of fun.

You have to react much more than I expected to the situation in your casino and there is also a Feng Shui element where the layout of your casino floor has an effect on your customers.

Well worth the budget price.

Great game, great price! [Posted on 2003-06-30]
I'm a big fan of Las Vegas and enjoy going there on vacation every year. This game is a fantastic value and a heck of a lot of fun. It's very fast paced and really requires a quick hand and eye. The controls and commands are relatively well thought out and the transparency effects when placing objects is intelligent and manageable.

A rotatable map would have made things easier at times, and it would have been nice to be allowed to select the game resolution, but y'know what? None of that detracts from the fact that this is a fun game. Not only a fun game, but a *cheap* fun game. Especially one that runs the way it should, is, in my opinion, pretty darned bug free.

A good buy!
