What's good: If you like city-building time management/strategy games, then you surely can't miss out on Hotel Mogul, Alawar Entertainment's latest release for the iPhone and iPod touch. In this game, you play Lynette, a smart businesswoman filing for a divorce from a cheating husband. Unfortunately, due to an overlooked contract clause, you find out that he is entitled to acquire your cherished firm - The Golden Company - upon separation! Obviously, you won't stand for this, so you decide to start a new real estate business and earn enough money to buy your company back. In classic Build-a-Lot style, you have to successfully complete various missions ranging from building a required number of establishments and hiring workers to earning a specific amount of money, purchasing certain structures, and more. Every stage requires strategic thinking and just the right pacing - the smallest mistake can mean the difference between a gold and silver medal, and in the worst case will force you to restart and try to make the score needed to advance. Buy, sell, build, and develop properties in thirty five different levels throughout five exotic locations while earning points to purchase blueprints for new hotels, decorations, and services that add more value to gameplay as you progress. The bright 3D graphics and subtle yet polished sounds cap off what is already an incredibly well-executed game, so you're guaranteed to have an endless amount of fun playing! Grab a copy now and experience the challenge of trying to live up to the title of hotel mogul. Will you be the one who saves the day for Lynette?
Suggestions for improvement: We'd love to see a help menu detailing the interface's various buttons' functions, explaining the significance of game elements, and maybe giving some tips and tricks.
