Not my favorite out of the series. Graphics are fine but there were a lot of things that could have been explained somewhere/better, like clicking on jellyfish will get you needed food, and sometimes things you needed to click on to proceed were hidden behind other things so your time ticks down while you're trying to find the little green circle hidden behind a coral.
I finished all 50 levels with 3 stars, found all the puzzles pieces, got all the gold trophies on the map, but where are the 15 bonus levels?
I don't recommend this game.

Roads of Rome is my favorite game franchise and I'm so happy to see another edition of it!
Gameplay is the same as other RoR games so there's nothing new you really have to learn to do. I've always loved the little hidden objects in each level, giving you something to do while the workers hammer away at something. Graphics are fantastic as usual, with new looks for the supplies buildings. The music is nice and fits the Middle Ages theme.
The only thing about this one that I don't care for is the worker vocalizations, they're repetitive and annoying, and just seem unnecessary. I wish there was a way to turn just them off but keep the music and other sound effects.
I recommend this game!

This game has absolutely no challenge. Each restaurant is about ten levels too long, but each level lasts less than a minute and ends as soon as it starts getting the least bit challenging. There's no interesting combinations to have to figure out, each plate has just one upgrade if it's requested. All upgrades are purchased a little past halfway through the restaurant so there's really no goal to shoot for anymore and you're just doing the same thing over and over again. Do not recommend.
I don't recommend this game.

I like the newer Incredible Dracula games and decided to kind of work my way back to some of the older titles. I wish I'd read the reviews more closely on this one because it was pretty disappointing. Holding your cursor over things to see what you need only works about half the time, and even clicking on items themselves felt "sticky," like you had to try a couple of times before it finally registered. Gameplay was too easy, there were so many levels where I'd have at least 1/3 of the time bar left by the time I finished the level that it was disappointing - I don't mind having to redo a level a few times if it's challenging and I have to figure out what I need to do to pass it on the next try. I didn't even realize I was on the last level until the credits were rolling, passed it with nearly half a time bar left.
I don't recommend this game.

I really enjoy these types of games but this one fell short. Each level goes very quickly and it just feels like there's no challenge. Add me to the list of reviewers wondering what happened to the promised bonus farm level as well.
The graphics are well done and the music isn't annoying.
I don't recommend this game.

I always look forward to these "seasonal" games, and Park Ranger always makes me think of summer. Park Ranger 16 is just as fun as the previous games, and while some images and scenes are reused, there were enough new ones that it wasn't annoying. Also love the side games/puzzles, they always do a great job on them.
My only complaint is that it seems to have gone by too quickly!
I recommend this game!

I was so happy to see a new chapter of one of my favorite game series -- the Roads of Rome franchise has been one of my go-to's for nearly a decade. The gameplay is familiar without having to learn many new techniques, but that doesn't mean it's not challenging. I've always loved being able to pick a difficulty level and will often go back and replay the entire game again on a harder settings just to see if I can. Portals 3 has kept that same level of fun, I highly recommend if you love a classic TM game.
I recommend this game!

I only discovered this many years after its release, but it holds up well for being 10+ years old! It gives you Diner Dash vibes with enough differences that it's not annoying.
There are a few things I'd wish for - like more levels and the ability to more easily replay a level. It would also be nice to see what levels got an expert score and which didn't - you can't tell unless you pay attention to the end of a level and don't see that you got it (unless I'm missing something). I don't care for the potion making mini games, it got really boring after the first couple rounds. Like other players I also had issues with having to double or triple click on some tables before it actually registered the click, which was frustrating. I also wish I could play it on my larger monitor but I know that's just an older game issue. Otherwise this is a great time management game.
I recommend this game!

Wow! I've been playing time management games for nearly 20 years and this one by far ranks in my top 5. The gameplay is different enough from standard TM games that the challenge was a refreshing change - I love when I need to do a level over once or twice because I couldn't quite get it finished in time to get gold/top score. The graphics are fantastic and the storyline was clever without being corny. I highly recommend this game for TM fans. I really hope more are coming!
I recommend this game!

The game kept me interested and I can see playing it again, and I like that you can change the difficulty as well. A lot of the elements are reused from 11 and 12 (a bunch of the people and location pictures are used over and over again), and I wish the list of objects to find was longer. I know I can redo levels to get the objects that weren't listed in the first try but I'd rather do it all in one go.
I did have some weird issues with the puzzles - the jigsaw puzzles and the binocular puzzles specifically. The jigsaw puzzles got a weird gray shadowing effect on the board when I'd move a piece - the outline would stay where the piece had been and was really distracting. The binocular puzzles had a strange issue with, for lack of a better way of putting it, "randomness." Whenever I picked up a piece to place in the binoculars, it happened to fit exactly next to a piece that was already in place, every time.
I recommend this game!
