I can vouch for Airport Mania - great little game for a buck. Cool sounds, unique theme, variety of upgrades that add a bit of depth and pretty challenging and increasing difficulty level. There are also star ratings, so it's nice to try same levels a few times in order to perfect them. Cheers, Jakub
My favorites so far (in order of most to least): Hospital Havoc Supermarket Mania Airport Mania Flight Control (Time management in a different style) Daycare Nightmare Chocolate Shop Frenzy Hell's Kitchen I want to try (in order of most to least): Sally's Salon Cake Mania 3 Diner's Dash (maybe)
I am talking about quality to price ratio here. You can get the highest quality games with many times more production value for 7 bucks.
I have to agree - I HAVE played HH and while it is a good game, I don't think it's the best TM game in the app store. I've bought all of the TM games and I think that Supermarket Mania is the best of the lot. To me, SM has the best storyline of all the TM games. Any of the TM games would be a good choice (except for Diner Dash) - just choose the one that looks the best to you.
You can get worse games for a lot more than $7, what is your point? It's currently $2.99 by the way. As a new developer to the AppStore, they may not have had as much knowledge as you and others about common pricing. They appear to be adjusting accordingly and learning as they go. Still, price has nothing to do with the quality of the game and how it ranks as the "best time management game". Update "High production value" does not always make a good game, but I see what you were going with there.
I'm having TONS of fun with Supermarket Mania. In fact, I'm almost finished with it. It'll be the first of it's type I've finished. And I own a couple others. This one has great graphics, nice comic book-style cut scenes and unobtrusive muzac. And it was only 2 bucks. Can Hospital Havoc beat that?
You've got some nerve having a go at him like that, what with that "BUY IT NOW!!!" review of Hospital Havoc you just happened to post after the developer gave you a free copy. Sorry, and I know I shouldn't have brought it up again, but honestly, you had no business accusing him of that. As for me, I've purchased Airport Mania (AM), Hospital Havoc (HH) and Diner Dash (DD). I bought all three legitimately and have had no contact with the developers of any of them. That said, I'd give my vote to AM in a heartbeat, and if I were to be honest, I would rate DD ahead of HH. HH needs some sort of fun patch. I don't know, it's just... not as enjoyable.
I am beginning to suspect Candy being paid to promote Hospital Havoc - in almost every single thread since its come out, there Candy buy this game its the best. Well no actually it is not as djflippy said - It's task-queuing seems broken my ratings would be 1. Airport Mania 2. Supermarket Mania 3. Sally's Salon
Someone can't like a game? What you are saying is ridiculous. Look at the history of this forum, there are loads of people who love games and you pick on me? As you can see Ray's daughter was the one who wrote that other post. Goodness man.
I think i must have missed the place you put down, IN MY OPINION, after claiming Hospital Havoc is the best. So who is the one not making sense now, huh?
lol. You stated Supermarket Mania was the best to begin with and then you get angry because I don't agree with you and state another game! This is childish nonsense and like Don said...We must be civil. Have a nice day.
If you ask me, Hell's Kitchen would be the best. The rantings of Gordon Ramsay, the great graphics, and to top it all - the great gameplay is certainly something that would make Hell's Kitchen the best of the best time management games.
Jeez guys, lets all calm down about this "candy must be paid off to rant about xxx game!" and other accusations! In case you haven't noticed, the very title of this thread is subjective in the first place! There is no absolute answer as it differs from everyone's tastes, desires and even financial budget. CandyNJ66 put forward her opinion that Hopsital Havoc is her favourite above all others, and this may even be because its one of the latest games she's bought. If the person who accused her of getting a promo code and forced to give a glowing review actually read the other post on HH, then they might know that she was sitting on the fence for a while and then bought it and loved it. For the record, I bought AirportMania afew days back but never played it. Upto then, my favourite was Sallys Salon. Now I would say AM is very good too, with great music and probably the best TM game for me, right now. So, does that mean AM is the best for the original poster? Maybe not. That's entirely down to him/her to decide. Everyone is entitled to their opinions, but please avoid the accusations. Its stupid, pointless, and unnecessary.
Good call. Respecting the opinions of others is an important lesson to learn, everyone's entitled to disagree with others without accusations about them needing to be made. That said, Airport Mania is still the best
