Shop-n-Spree

A time management game and an object seeking game in one. If you enjoyed those detective games of finding things from a vast number of chaotic rooms and still want something different, Shop n Spree is something you will enjoy. The objective of the game is basically to build a better mall than a newly built store of a competitor.

What's good about the game is that you have a number of departments to play every level. Some new ones open as you progress. I enjoyed playing on new stores because it makes it more challenging where you need to familiarize yourself again to the structure of the shelves and places where the items are, and not to mention new items. Just like other time management games, you also encounter different customers – rich man who would buy all the pens on your shelf, a busy man hurrying up, a lady who don't know exactly what she wants, and some common customers that are willing to wait until you give them what they want. In every store you played, there are some mini games where you could gain hints if you have succeeded.

Overall, I think the game is easy. At first I enjoyed the different department stores of the mall. But as I move up the levels, the game happens in the same stores as the earlier levels so it becomes easier. You could have a day playing the game until it ends though you might not want to dwell on a repetitive game every level. But this game is still worth a try to mini games addict like me.
