Times of great peril give rise to even greater heroes - or so the story goes in Dragon Crossroads, a time management game with a fantasy twist!

Being a huge Roads of Rome/Island Tribe fan, I was excited to see a new series released. The concept is the same, collect various items (bricks, food, gold- etc) to complete a pathway to the exit or defeat baddies. However, this game lacks the sound effects my TM heart desires and the levels are quick and pretty easy. Some TM fans might like this, but for me it wont be making my favorite list just yet- it really doesn't compare to the games mentioned above. It has potential to be a great game, just needs some tweaks! Also I had to reload the game because it froze a few times. My characters would not come out of the house to collect items =/
I recommend this game!

Great wall of China is Roads of Rome meets building the great wall! You need to collect resources (stone, food, gold & wood) to restore the great wall and bridges. I wish they had more power ups to use to help with the levels, but you really do not need them- the levels are pretty easy, but they are tons of fun too! =)
I recommend this game!

Let me just say 1st, I love any kind of game where you have to remember recipes. And in this face paced TM game, you are a coffee shop owner that oversees employees tasks, while being able to participate in the creating and serving of drinks. You have to do all this in a reasonable amount of time so you do not make your customers mad and force them to leave! I recommend this to anyone looking for a great TM game that will give them hours/days of enjoyment! Definitely going on my favorite list!
I recommend this game!

Easily one of the best TM games out there right now. If you love face paced, crazy clicking games- you will not be disappointed with Burger Bustle! The graphics are cute and sharp- the music helps keep momentum during the crazy burger building madness! I'm pretty sure I burnt out a mouse battery with all the clicking- but it was well worth it! I really hope we see a 3rd Burger Bustle in the future!!
I recommend this game!

I purchased this game after the trial hoping for some new and exciting levels/goals as the game progressed. Unfortunately, that never happened. It was pretty much the same goals laid out on different scenery. The graphics/sound and concept were done very well. The challenges were at times difficult and it took me over an hour to complete most of the levels. Considering this is the 1st installment of a trilogy, I am anxious to see improvements made in the next book! I do recommend this game because it was fun and entertaining even if it was a bit repetitive!
I recommend this game!

I really enjoyed the 1st Pyramid Rising game so was very excited to see the 2nd was here! This is a fun game and I was sad when I finished! It can become a little crazy having to click the money from the houses...but it def get's you on your toes! Great addition to my TM collection!
I recommend this game!

Sometimes change is good. The 1st Monument Builders was an okay game to pass the time while I anxiously awaited a release of another TM game- however I found the goals in both games to be a little difficult. There is way too much clicking involved and the time it can take to complete a level is long enough for me to become bored with the game!
I don't recommend this game.
