Trailer Park Tycoon

The Good
What did I like about it? Just about everything! For one thing, I think it's a pretty funny game. The way a stray alien just chases my trashy folks around, makes me smile. : )

Chickens running amok, and even a dog running around and causing trouble, it's all good fun. What I like the most about this game, is it so easy to play. It feels like a casual game! I love it for that! I play a lot of type of games, but I like to play the ones that don't take too much skill, and that rings true for this game.

The sounds are pretty good too, like a dog barking or aliens invading.

It even only lets you place your trailers, amenities, and attractions down in specific fixed places, at a fixed angle. So, to build your park all it takes is clicking on what you want and placing it down where you want it to be. Simple!

It has a puzzle feel to it too, because you have four different styled residents that come to stay at your trailer park. Trashy, Flashy, Cool and Old Skool. Every object has a rating, that adds points to one or two of these stats, so if one of your residents wants a trashy trailer, give it to em'! Just place down a trashy trailer, and place trashy stuff around it. The only prices you have to worry about changing, are the amenities, and trailers. And even then, the game has you change them in fives. : )

The first person view camera is a neat addition.

The Bad
Well, the game isn't too much fun to watch. Your folks don't do a whole lot, and only say one word, "wahwah", and then wave, or punch someone if they don't like them. Meh. Who cares about graphics anyway!

Aside from the main menu and a little tune when you start a new game, there is no music. The sounds are pretty good, like a dog barking or aliens invading.

The Bottom Line
If you have always wanted a simple to play Tycoon game, and haven't gave this one a go. Try it! You might just like it. Oh, did I mention that it is almost entirely void of bugs. Thumbs up, Jeleco! Too bad you don't make games anymore. : (
