Jane's Zoo Review
So far, Jane has run half a dozen hotels, a real estate business, and a chain of clothing stores. What's next for the dynamic red head? In Jane's Zoo, the latest hectic time management game by Realore, we find out that Jane has a new dream - to rescue the world's animals from environmental pollution.

Jane's Zoo Preview
Realore (Jane's Hotel, Jane's Realty) is on a roll with animals. Having just released 3 Days: Zoo Mystery, next up for the studio is a new time management game called Jane's Zoo.
3 Days: Zoo Mystery Review
I thought I knew what to expect from 3 Days: Zoo Mystery. Same old cartoon panel storytelling, same inoffensive “cheap greeting card” art style, and the same overhead map with multiple locations to visit. Everything about Zoo Mystery’s presentation screams "just another HOG." Everything, that is, except the actual gameplay.
Ashtons Family Resort Review
A resort-themed time management game sounds great, especially if you don't have plans to travel during the holiday season. However, Ashtons: Family Resort compels me to reconsider that position.
The game introduces an newlywed couple void of personality who open their dream family resort business on a lake shore in the U.S. After a slow start with little action, the game moves on to Switzerland in hopes that a change of scenery would provide the lift it needed. Alas, my journey with the Ashtons ended with a crash, both literally and figuratively.
Farm Mania Review
Agricultural simulations have been so inexplicably popular lately that perhaps this holiday season, Santa should be shouting "Hoe hoe hoe!" instead. Thankfully, Farm Mania provides one of the catchiest and most playable takes on barnyard life yet.
Dress Up Rush Review
One question: How in the world does Jane learn so many businesses? She's done Jane's Realty and Jane's Hotel. Now she jumps into fashion in Dress Up Rush. (While the title has no "Jane" in it, you know it's the same Jane when you see Jane's hotel lurking in the corner of a scene.)
Jane's Realty Review
With trouble in the economy and the majority of homes being devalued in the markets, independent real estate polls indicate that many of us are feeling the pinch. It's ironic, then, that under these conditions we've seen a rush of real estate games. Jane's Realty is the latet addition to the time management buiding scene, joining games like Build-a-lot and Build in Time.
