My teen daughters and I played a limited version of this game online. As soon as the trial time had ended,we purchased it at Amazon and I am happy that I did. The game is a lot of fun. The graphics are great. It is very user friendly. The object of the game is challenging, yet within reach when you put your mind to it. The only disappointment that I experienced was when I reached the end!

I liked this game from the start. Simple to play and fun. Everything moves pretty quick and you are given clear goals to achieve. Overall, the game gets 4 stars. Enjoy.

I love this game. I got it just before Christmas and beat it yesterday. I liked it so much I couldn't stop playing. Fun characters, great details, very addicting!!! Easy to learn, fun to play. Medium difficulty to beat game. You have to understand when to buy things and when to take a loan to buy things, and when and what to upgrade. Then it's easy.

Funny and challenging

This is a really cute game that has some very funny elements. I would recommend it for anybody, but it is great and educational for kids as it teaches about supply and demand. The only drawback of this game is that on a couple of the levels, it takes a long time to achieve your goal of driving your competitors out of business, and there really isn't anything you can do to speed the process up. But overall, the game is very good.

Fun, Educational Game

This is one fun game! I played it and got hooked. My daughter is hooked on it, too. I call it educational because it truly is. You have to be able to buy supplies (hopefully buying when they are low and having enough on hand so you don't have to buy when they are high-priced), create a product, price a product correctly according to the supply and demand, market a product well, and sell the product. This is a great tool to teach my daughter about supply and demand in a very fun atmosphere. The graphics are cute and the theme is entertaining. I recommend Fairy Godmother Tycoon. It is very enjoyable to play.

It's Just Plain Fun

This game was a lot of fun. The graphics are not top of the line but they are cute and well done. It is certainly a buying and selling game, sort of a mini business simulation with a magical twist. At 10 dollars, its a good buy. At the initial 20 it was iffy because although the game plays a little longer than many "casual" games (and more depth too) it is still scores below the length of the bigger titles.

Good start up tycoon game

if you are unsure of tycoon games, and want a game that is easy to play and gives you an idea what tycoon games are about then this game is for you. If you are familiar with tycoon games and want a challenge then this game is not for you. The game only has one mode in the beginning which is classic game which is story mode. You must go through the entire classic game to unlock all cities. Once the cities are unlocked it goes back and revisits whatever city you choose using the money you won previously in that game. Once classic is over it is rather boring. Yes. classic has some fun story tale twists that are fun to choose different options on, but that is also limited in the options.

In conclusion. this is a great tycoon beginner game, but if your used to other tycoon games that move at a faster pace you will want to pass on this one.

Not so much...

I am addicted to Roller Coaster Tycoon so have been trying out the other tycoon games. This one is the first disappointment. Too little interactions during the sell phase make it a guess and see type of game. Oh Well. My 5 year old nephew likes it....

I bought this game because I am very interested in magical stuff. But as I began to play the game, I realized it's not much of a magical game as I hoped it would be. It's more of a dealing game. Like, it's perfect for people who are interested in buying and selling. But overall, it's not bad.

Boring for adults

Perhaps the problem is that I bought this game for myself, and I am over the age of 8 years.

The character art started off with promise but rapided declined into something miniaturized, boring and with about as much visual stimulation and interaction as an ant farm. I gave this game about 30 minutes of attention, before I decided that I could not bear looking at the boring, small figures of townspeople running up and down the streets of the village any longer.

Then, I deleted the game from my computer and decided to give it to my 8 year year old grandchild. I will let her know that this game does not require much participation. If she gets bored, she can give it to someone younger than herself.

Don't buy this game, if you are older than 8.
