Lemonade Stand
Is It Any Good?
There's a lot kids can learn about basic business concepts through playing LEMONADE STAND. It would just be nice if there were a bit more variety to make sure those kids stuck with the game all the way to the end. The game's interface is incredibly simple and there are no bells and whistles outside of some short music cues -- this will be considered an asset to parents who remember the original 30-year-old computer game and like the nostalgia factor, but could be a con for kids who need a bit more stimulation from a video game. This is a good, and very likable game, that due to its repetition, risks having a very short lifespan.
