So, if you’re a fan of both the PS2 and management games, there’s a chance you’ll like this list.
And some of you may already know some of the games mentioned in this list.
#5. Playboy: The Mansion
- Release Data: Cyberlore Studios/Ubisoft, 2005
- Genre: Strategy » Management » Business / Tycoon
Beyond simply not being a particularly compelling game, Playboy: The Mansion really seems to treats both Hefner and the Playboy reader like a commodity.
The business aspect is the most entertaining part of the game, if only because it lets you do something besides try and bed a clone army of big-breasted bunnies.
#4. MetropolisMania
- Release Data: Indi/Natsume, 2002
- Genre: Strategy » Management » Government
If you can look past MetropolisMania‘s presentational shortcomings and few key gameplay flaws, what you’ll find is an undeniably quirky, entertaining, and surprisingly addictive sim game.
However, the game is certainly not for everyone, and its many idiosyncrasies may prove to be too esoteric for the average gamer.
#3. Jurassic Park: Operation Genesis
- Release Data: Blue Tongue Entertainment/Universal Interactive, 2003
- Genre: Strategy » Management » Business / Tycoon
Universal Interactive has taken the logical step with Jurassic Park: Operation Genesis, a strategy game that lets players create and manage a dinosaur zoo.
Jurassic Park: Operation Genesis is an enjoyable game that should appeal to dinosaur buffs and park simulation fans alike, thanks to its attractive graphics engine, unique features, and surprising gameplay depth.
#2. Harvest Moon: Save the Homeland
- Release Data: Victor Interactive Software, 2001
- Genre: Strategy » Management » Business / Tycoon
Previous games in the series may have offered more features and more compelling gameplay, but the simplified nature and attractive graphics of Save the Homeland make it an ideal choice for those new to the series.
It is an engaging, long-lasting experience, and it may just be some of the most fun you can have on a lazy weekend afternoon.
#1. Theme Park Roller Coaster
- Release Data: Bullfrog Productions/Electronic Arts Victor, 2000
- Genre: Strategy » Management » Business / Tycoon
Theme Park Roller Coaster is a fun, addictive game that’s intelligent and highly amusing. While complicated at times, it is a blast to play and a particular breed of fun.
And although Theme Park Roller Coaster is a PC game by nature, the fast clip, the easy-to-use interface, and the constant lure to fiddle with everything, is universal to all gamers.
