A TYCOON GAME FOR THE MASSES
hrillville is LucasArt’s attempt at bringing the “theme park” genre to an audience that may have found the more complex and PC-oriented titles on the market too off-putting. By organizing the daily tasks of the management and building process into discrete missions, it does manage to make it more approachable for younger gamers or those that simply don’t want to get bogged down in the minutia of hot dog pricing. It also has a large number of minigames, ranging from a rhythm dance contest to small-scale FPS levels. It’s definitely fun, and demonstrates an offbeat sense of humor (especially in your interactions with customers), but probably doesn’t have the depth to give it the long legs of other titles in the genre. However, it’s likely that this could succeed in bringing new gamers into the simulation fold.
