Music, looks, EVERYTHING! For this new millennium, this game is a MUST for those that love 80's. I only wish this were Collector's Edition to get the soundtrack, but you can replay levels just to hear it.
The fix-it-up games are alot of fun with a simple story line that doesnt drag you through screen after screen. Give this one a try, you will find yourself downloading and buying the other ones as well.
This game is Kate's father telling her about the old days when they got started in the garage business. It then leads you to the various cities and places they worked. It was an OK game, not one I would want to play more than twice.
I'm not a time management player (I prefer good old adventure games) but I played previous Fix-It-Up once and decided to give this part a try too. It sucked me in and I didn't even notice when I spent much more time then intended on selling and buying cars :) Excellent way to relax after a day of work. It is challenging but in a pleasant way. You just play along using your mind just enough to still relax.
I love this series, and my 4 years old daughter loves it too (she plays it on iPhone). I have few time managements and I used to play them when I need a little break :)
I thought this game was a very well thought out & planned sequel. I would have liked more levels if all gold for a certain chapter was achieved as in the original, but the ability to earn more pts to fix up the cafe/bar was nice. The object is basically the same as the original: Buy low & sell high. The more you upgrade your garages & cars, the better the price you can get for a vehicle. I like TM & stratagy games. This was a buy for me. Thanks BF.
I quickly burned up my hour trial, and wanted more! I'm not generally a time management fan and am definitely not a car fan, but buying, fixing up, and selling/renting these cars out was too much fun! Kate's parents are a cute couple, and the likeable characters kept me wanting to help them succeed. The music fit the game well and was easily lost in the background as I played, often too eager to buy and sell more cars I'd lose track of my actual goals and miss best times that way! I actually spent some time doing free play without story goals, just because I love buying and selling those cars. This is definitely on my buy list!
relaxing after a day at work. good fun to unwind.
I love all the Fix-it-Up games, and I enjoyed this one just as the predecessors. My only complaint is about the duration: I completed the entire game in a few hours. They need to add more levels!
There are no words to describe how awful this game was. I got out in less than 4 minutes.
