Really fun game for my 9 year old. It’s continous play, for days and days of fun.

I absolutely love this game. It’s very fun, and almost like a real garden (for all those people who want one and don’t have the land for one, this is a good alternative). The graphics are beautifully rendered, and the plants look so real, you can almost smell the flowers. It is a little addictive, so if you have a lot to do, you probably shouldn’t start playing it right away. There are at least a hundred varieties of plants to discover, and many insects to catch. There are many options for upgrading your store and your nursery, so you can have fun buying new things. Over all, it is a very nice game, with a nice satisfaction value to it, though it is not QUITE as good as digging your hands into real soil, but it comes close. Highly recommended.

I have played alot of tycoon games and I was one of those people who hated fish tycoon but this game is so much better. It gives you other ways to past time and make money other than just selling your items. You can catch bugs for money and sell seeds. Anyone who wants a cute little game to play that’s easy and doesn’t require alot of waiting.

Got the Plant Tycoon together with Fish Tycoon. Much preferred this as it allows you to save your plant seeds of the new breed for future cross breeding. I would suggest making up a spread sheet to keep track of the parentage of every new plant discovered.

Following is a review by Isabella (6 years old), one of the younger members of dream factory:
“You can make a big nusery with flowers. “You can make a seed collection. And have as many tools and products for the nursery. And try to discover the 6 magic plants. You catch and collect bugs and insects, either for jars or money. You can sell the flowers to the customers. Their are 100 products to chose from, and 500 different plants.”
Parent: Yes this is a recommended PC game due to it teaching youngsters at many levels. Plant care/nurturing from seed – seedling – plant. Defence against insects. Nursery arrangement and customer service. Not a simple game by any means. Taking much lateral thinking during play and operation.
