Game is fun, no, game is very fun until there is need to restart a mission, then...disaster. You HAVE to continue playing until you go bankrupt. There is no "Restart Mission" button, instead you have to loan a lot of money and "forget" to pay back that money.
In my case I wasn't blessed with option to loan money, so going to bankrupt was something to desire.
At the end, I had to create new profile, and replay all previous missions (this must be some new way to extend game life.)
There are few other problems like bank refuse credit even when you have plenty of money and no loans at all, customers getting robbed but you can't hire security until you have more than 4 screens, and game help is something that left to be desired (there is something called help, but it's not). My expectation for this game was not high and it was pleasant surprise until I needed to restart mission, then game forces me to fight with this lack of option trying to start mission and get back in fun zone...after hour of trying game won.
Anyway, game, characters, story is fun, but that lack of Restart mission option leaves bitter taste about this game.
I don't recommend this game.
