The North American west in the 1800s was a rough time: settlers striking out across vast expanses of land to create new homes, resources always at a minimum, and some bossy person with a cursor always telling you what to do. Ok, so that last bit is exclusive to Big Bang West, a light-hearted simulation game that lets you build in the frontier one small town at a time. But the rest holds true!

Check out Gamezebo's strategy guide for Mr. Jones' Graveyard Shift.It may not be that complicated to just run a graveyard, but it might be harder to do so as efficient and profitable as possible. We hope that you will find some help and useful hints for playing Mr. Jones' Graveyard Shift even more successfully.General Tips:At the opening screen of the game, you can only click on "Start" to either choose an existing profile or to create a new one:        You...

Running a graveyard is certainly not common scenery for a casual game, but that is exactly what the player will have to do in Mr. Jones' Graveyard Shift. However, if the soil at Mr. Jones graveyard is as buggy as the game itself, we can only pity his future customers.

From the games of the Adelantado Trilogy, to Roads of Rome and even Northern Tale, it’s safe to say that publisher Realore has a firm grasp on the time management genre. Fans of those previous games have a new option in Viking Saga, but as you might expect, this one comes with some slight differences that make it both better and worse than other “identical” games.

While games in the time management genre obviously challenge you to manage your time, there are also sub-genres within this space for players that want to focus on either strategy or speed. Strategy games may see you balancing the use of resources and workers, but Fitness Bustle: Energy Boost falls into the other category, as this is one game focused solely on speed.

In the summer of 2012, we dove into the world of Adelantado Trilogy: Book One, and found that the game’s complexity was only really marred by its overly lengthy levels. Now the second book in the trilogy is available to complete, as Adelantado Trilogy: Book Two has been unleashed on gamers everywhere. The game still contains the incredibly long levels, but there are some interesting tweaks that make this experience top its predecessor.

Few of us think of gardening as a strategy for getting rich quick, but that's the idea behind flora-themed time management game, Gardens Inc.: From Rakes to Riches. This zippy little title encourages you to get your hands dirty, demanding not only that you manage your time effectively, but your resources as well. Except for a few instances where the interface hinders rather than helps you do this, Rakes to Riches is an absorbing horticultural diversion. 

A peaceful kingdom has been rocked with the loss of its princess. A dark presence has turned the princess to stone, and you’re the only person that can reverse the spell using the power of sunshine and light. Through dozens of time management levels, Sweet Kingdom: Enchanted Princess will see you balancing the use of resources as you collect sunshine and restore the Kingdom, and it’s a system that works well even with its unique user interface.

Let’s face it: time management games are a dime a dozen, so it takes a lot for a game to stand out amongst its many peers. Unfortunately, Meridian: Age of Invention doesn’t invent anything new in the genre, and it stands out for all the wrong reasons.

Some ideas never seem to get old. Zombies, for instance, seem to hold an endless fascination for us, and time management games seem to have a similarly evergreen appeal. In 2012, Anino Games bundled the two concepts into one ghoulishly frantic package in Grave Mania: Undead Fever, and this year they bring us the sequel to that game, Grave Mania: Pandemic Pandemonium. While this new offering's not significantly different from its predecessor, it does offer a more streamlined approach to time management.
