    It's good for what it is, a PS2 Era business/management sim. My Dad found it going for only 2 bucks and I've gotten that money's worth and more from it. It has a bunch of options for what to do with not too much depth, but enough to be interesting. Some of the optional minigames such as golf, racing, and trampolines are fun.

    Of course, the combination of sim and action game is sometimes a bit jarring, making the game seem like it doesn't really know what it wants to be.
