I played a few minutes of the demo and this looks like it could be a fun strategy/building game. I may be imagining things, but the voiceover in the tutorial sounds very much like Lani Minella, the woman who does the voice of Nancy Drew in the Nancy Drew games (maybe I just need another cup of coffee!).

Flo NS Addicted Boomer Registered: 04/11/06 Posts: 2946 Loc: Nova Scotia	I couldn't get past the second level, it calls for 10,500 in income, and the income is there but it's not recognizing the income from the town hall. The upgraded wagons bring in 10,000 and the town hall 500, but it's only registering the 10,000. So that 's as far as I can go. Marian, did you get any further?

Marian Casual forum Moderator Adept Boomer Registered: 07/04/00 Posts: 12646 Loc: near Yosemite in California	Flo, I believe there's a post right here on the Big Fish forums that will explain this for you. I hadn't played past the second level yet.

Flo NS Addicted Boomer Registered: 04/11/06 Posts: 2946 Loc: Nova Scotia	Actually the rest are just as bad, you just can't figure out where to build what. It takes you all of your expert time just to figure out what goes where. It could have been a good game with more information given as to what rules apply. Used up my hours just on the first few levels trying to work it out, and then discovered I didn't have it worked out. After reading some info at the forum I think I'll get it, I haven't used any coupons this month yet, so using one of them doesn't cost anything. Edited by Flo NS (01/11/12 02:45 PM)

Marian Casual forum Moderator Adept Boomer Registered: 07/04/00 Posts: 12646 Loc: near Yosemite in California	Okay, good to know. The tutorial seemed lacking when I took a look at the game, but the game does seem worth pursuing. Let me know how you like the game as you continue on.

Flo NS Addicted Boomer Registered: 04/11/06 Posts: 2946 Loc: Nova Scotia	It's not bad. As someone wrote on the forum, it's not just a TM game it's also a stategy game. You need to figure out where best to put things in order to finish the tasks and also you may get the tasks in stages, so if you build something that works for the first stage, that doesn't mean it's going to work for the second stage, so there is a lot to think about without going whole hog right away and having to tear things down only to rebuild something different.

Flo NS Addicted Boomer Registered: 04/11/06 Posts: 2946 Loc: Nova Scotia	I'm quite enjoying it, played it all last night into the wee hours and still not done. It's different and lots to do. Some levels need replaying if you want a gold star for updating the train.
