A weak Sims copy cat

Maximum Capacity is a hotel simulation game similar to the popular PC game The Sims. You are able to control the basic layout of the building, including what types of rooms are located where and what type of furniture is in the room. You can also review market data and advertise your hotel.

The graphics of the game are actually better than The Sims. Many of the objects look very life-like if you look at them closely. Yet, the objects available are very limited. The characters also display more emotions then The Sims do.

The playability of the game is nowhere near that of The Sims. The characters are very drone-like. I found the game to get boring watching the guests do their daily routines. To JoWood's credit, this is an economic simulation game not a personality one like The Sims.

The game is not very entertaining at all. Most of the time you are staring at facts and figures trying to increase your profit. For me this got old very quickly. It turns into a complex puzzle rather than an entertaining game.

If you like marketing this would be a good game for you. If you are looking for personal interactions, I would pass on this game.

DO NOT BUY!!!

This is one of the worst games ever created. I feel ashamed and hurt to have bought this. I spent 40 bucks on a piece of turd. I tried sooo hard to give it away. Noone wanted it. Face the facts. It flat out sucks. There are too little options. The rooms feel akward and dont make sense. The graphics are horrendus and there are very few objects. It almost makes me cry that I spent time playing it. The controls are flat out awful, it took me nearly an hour just to figure out how to place an object. DO NOT BUY!!! DO NOT ACCEPT AS GIFT! DO NOT PLAY! DO NOT LOOK AT!!!!! Trust me... you dont want to play.

doesn't even work

I tried this game several times, without success. I know for a fact that there are a lot of versions of this game that DO NOT WORK! They won't even start and tech support won't help. Take your chances...it was a nice thought though.

Great!

I got this game at best buy (and paid more than here)and loaded the game when I got home.I thought "Wow this game is cool!" but then all of a sudden instead of thinking "cool game" I was screaming.The game quits unexpectedly and you loose all of your work.If your thinking the manufacturer could help you , your wrong.If you go to JoWoods site the message boards are filled with tons of people saying the same thing and JoWood does nothing about it.You can email them and they still will not do anything.You could buy the game.The 5 minutes of game time is pretty cool, but expect problems.

Boring, don't waist your time!

When I first got this game I thought that you would actually be able to create your own hotel. (Inside and out!) But all you get to do is build the rooms, but not the outside. When you are finished, you have to wait about 5 minutes untill just 1 person comes! No matter how appealing your hotel might look to you, only about 10 people (max.) will come. It's not worth it! And, it can be very frustraiting. For example, if you want to put a chouch in the corner it will put it somewhere else. It takes about 3-4 tries to get it where you want it! I hate games like that! Don't you?

View the website before purchasing this product!

I suggest that you go to the website and view the Technical Support section before purchasing this product. Read about the problems that other users have had or are having with this program. I've had the program for about three weeks, and it has worked about three times. There seems to be a problem starting the program. It either kicks you back to the desktop during the intro or it won't start at all. I downloaded the patch for the program, it didn't work. I sent an email to Tech Support a week ago and they have not yet responded. I read through the customer comments and found that there are a lot of people complaining about this problem. There are some people who have figured out how to re-program there software, but if I spend [money] on a software program, I shouldn't have to re-program it! Today I sold my game to a second hand retailer. I didn't get anything near the amount I paid for it. If you buy it and it works for you, Hooray! All I'm saying is view the customer comments on the website before purchasing this product! This Product, Tech Support and Manufacturer was a BIG disappointment to me. I will not be purchasing software from this company again. My experience with this software was TERRIBLE! I only gave it one star because there was no option for "0 Stars". Good Luck!

interface too difficult

I thought I would love this game, but I found the interface so awkward and the manipulation of things so awkward that I never stuck with it long enough to actually play it.

Ick!! Horrid game playing

I bought this game and another,..., at the same time and found that while [the other game] had cute little graphics and a laid back theme, Hotel Giant had crude graphics and a hard interface. Once you finally figured out how to place everything you're tired of the game had no further desire to play. It's one of those games you wish you didn't invest [$$]in! I wouldn't recommend it to anyone unless they really really wanted to spend some money. Pass this one by, folks.

the best game ever
