    My wife has discovered she enjoys this genre. She has played Supermarket Mania 1 and 2 to death and loved both of them. I assumed there would be a bunch of similar titles on iOS (or specifically iPad) but I can't find anything that appears similar. Any ideas? I would specifically like something for the iPad.

    I personally recommend "game dev story" be warned though it's really hard to stop playing. I think that fits time management genre it's a really good game regardless though.

    Airport Mania is a good one.

    Also check out Train Conductor 1 and 2.

    Sallys spa is the best time management game IMO.
    I also enjoyed jeans boutique but the controls were a little wonky.
    Jojos fashion show is also really fun, not really a time management game, I don't know what category that would really fall into.

    Have fun Mrs. xmiyux!

    • Sally's Spa HD
    • Sally's Salon Luxury Edition for iPad
    • Mystic Emporium HD
    • Jojo's Fashion Show World Tour for iPad (I prefer Jojo's 2, but no iPad version)
    • Airport Mania: First Flight
    • Hot Springs Story (not HD, but graphics look great scaled)

    Thanks for all the recommendations guys! Before this she would only play the line drawing games (Airport something) or the hidden object games (stuff like Big Fish Games does). I was excited she found a new genre she liked.

    Although that did mean she was continually stealing my iPad and cutting into my Neuroshima Hex time. ;)

    Dancing Craze is one of my favorite time managent games. Highly recommended. Mystic Emorium is also very good, as is Sunshine Acres, which is a bit different. I didn't love Cake Mania Main Street, but Cake Mania 3 is great. There's also Airport Mania. Touchscreens are perfect for time management games!

    Just bought Dancing Craze since she enjoyed the light version and the full version was on sale for a buck.

    Will see if some of the other recs have light versions as well.
