Summary: Great game, challenging, fun
Review: A fun game, but once the people move out of condos, its tough to get back on track. Good for age 8-12. Not impossible to win.

Summary: Incredibly Awesome!!
Review: At first, it got a little getting used to, but after I got the hang of it, it was really easy to beat. The other reviews may say it's bad, but that's probably because they get frustrated easily and don't have any pacience. You're not going to beat it on your first try, but it's a very enjoyable game!

Summary: A Semi-Good Sim Game
Review: Definately not the best simulation game put out, but still, this offers some addictive gameplay, until you reach "tower" status. There are different levels and your job is to build a sucessful mall complex, with shops, movie theatres, rec halls, condos, business offices and more. With rare VIP visits, bomb threats and Santa Claus this game doesn't have tooo many unexpected twists. You have to do a lot of waiting to get to new levels and to earn more money. I'd say if you like sim games give this one a shot if you find it at a cheap price.

Summary: An easy to learn, semi-addictive game
Review: From the makers of the acclaimed SimCity comes SimTower. This game, although from an impressive company with a good reputation, doesn't live up to it's good name as well as it should. The view for the majority of the game is the same, just getting bigger, it's a cut-a-way of a hotel. The game is simple, build a 5-star hotel, but the work to get it there is far from simple. This game is challenging, time taking, somewhat addictive game. You build apartments in your building if you want a constant source of profit. Condos are built if you want a one-time payment. You build theaters, escalators, resaurants, offices, and more in this game. As your rating increases(2 star to 3 star...) so does the amount of items you have the ability to insert. The reason I gave this a four star instead of five is just beacuse I didn't find it incredibly addictive. It couldn't hold my attention long enough. Most of the time is spent waiting for your money to accumulate so that you can purchase new features. All-in-all I would reccommend this game, even with its downsides, just because it is a fun and simple game to learn and play. I think I might go play it right now.

Summary: A tip
Review: Heres a tip which stops you from going bankrupt. Place 8 cars in each elevator and build express elevators. This will stop most people moving out

Summary: Very Very Addicting
Review: I got this game for Christmas a couple years ago and my grades have consistently gone down since. It's very addicting! It helps you think logically and stratically (oh no! Life lessons in a computer game!) and I have learned that often the more successful building is the more tedious. (i.e. 45 floors of office, 30 floors of hotels, and 25 floors of condos) My only problem is - and this may have just been my CD because it used to work - I have found that I put 2 elevators on the first floor. Then on the fifteenth floor, I put 2 more but keep the first two going. Except, nobody uses the second set because it tells me that they're not there! I know this because if I take away the first 2 elevators from the 16-up floors (but with both sets still touching the 15th), it tells me there is no transportation connected. Anybody know what is going on? E-mail me.

Summary: A Huge Disappointment
Review: I have always been an avid Sim player - SimCity (the original one), SimPlanet, SimTown, SimAnt... I've played them all (some only in teaching my nephew the fine art of being a SimAddict). This particular game was dull (there's so much stuff that could have been done with it - but wasn't). You only get a single perspective of the building and the main challenge (rather easily mastered) is to manage elevator service. I could think of a variety of perks that could have been put in to the building to make this game more interesting... but in the end you end up feeling like a slum-lord as you create this monster tower with no character to it. (Needless to say, there is no architectural element here... since the building is just the shell.)

Summary: This game is stupid.
Review: I own this game. I have gotten a 5 star rating once but it is dumb because if you run out of money and go into debt you can't get your money back or build anything. The people get impatient and stressed out and then they start taking your money away. I would recommend that you buy Spider Man or the Spider Man Movie Game instead of this annoying game that never ends.
