A Really Great Game!

I thought this game was really fun. There are so many new things to buy and the skiers seem a lot more like real people. The graphics are way better than the first one, and you can see from one of the skier's points of views. I didn't see the snowboarding or ski schools in the last one which was a big hit in my new game. Plus, there's night school now! I found that this game way WAY better than the first one, and I can spend hours on it at a time and not even get bored!! You should buy it!

The worst tycoon game ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

First of all i never bought the first game! They start you out with like $50.000 and every building costs $20.000 and as soon as you build somthing your money goes down 10 dollars a second.
another thing u have to buy buildings to earn extra buildings witch is retarted witch is normal about this game, sometimes you don't even see the ones collom because it's going down so fast. every single guy get's cold in about 10 seconds wich means that you have to build a warming shack so you have about 1,000 of these $1,000 each!So if i were you i'd bye the other tycoon games!!!!!!!!

A Major Disapointment

...The box looks flashy, all colorful and all, but this game stinks!! Here are the problems:

The first problem is your "financial situation". You start out with money, but your money is always dropping a buck a second. For another thing, if you want to build this building, you have to have this one. So you search for 5 minutes only to discover you need that one to build that one!! So you search again, soon to find out that you need this one...it will go on and on. They should have it so you can buy all you want, when you want. I don't see how even the makers could have bought so many buildings to put on the back of the box!! The buildings are also very hard to find, as a mere picture shows the catagories.

The second problem is all the other things-the annoying... music which gets stuck in your head, the screen is aslo difficult to navigate, and the "path a trail" feature is extremly confusing and hard to use. Also, the graphics of the skiers are bad.

The third and final problem is the tricks used to lure you to buy it. The colorful box, with the (I have to say this) beautiful pictures. On the baks bullets mark the "exiting new feaures and options" of the second game.

All-in-all, this is not a good game. If you do want to give it a spin, save the recipt, because in a few days you'll be showing it to the cashier at the store you bought it in...

Awful

There's no instruction manual. The tutorial is useless. It is not user friendly, and the graphics are terrible. Don't even get me started over the annoying music. It takes a while to figure out how to play.

Bad

This game is very bad compared to the first. Really hard to make money. And why the hell do we have to build a freaking power plant?! Ugh. Buy the first. The first is very fun and addictive. This one was a miserable failure. Yes, I know, harsh words, but so true.

This is the MOST BORING tycoon game ever. I take that back, the first ski resort tycoon is alot better. This game is really boring cause its impossible. they start u out with a miniscule amount of money and there are no directions on what to do at all. everything costs too much. u could just be done finishing a ski lift and boom, u are out of money. Also, the building strategy is very confusing. u could try to put a run somewhere, and without knowing it, you could accidentally run skiers off the mountain. i also dont like the "if u buy this, u get another thing" way the buy mode is structured. last, there are pretty much NO NEW FEATURES on the second one. so my advice is, if youve already wasted your money on the first of this series, dont waste more of it on the second one.

A Really Great Game!

Not as easy or as much fun as the other Tycoon games. This is difficult to learn and should come with a book that teaches some basic stuff. I am a Tycoon player from years back and have trouble with this game. Not for young people.
