CNET editors' review

Reviewed by: CNET Staff

Lots of games appeal to your inner Bart Simpson, but what about your Principal Skinner? Finally, there's a game for him too. In School Tycoon, you play an up-and-coming headmaster. Your job is to construct buildings for academics, administration, maintenance, and sports, and to fill those buildings with teachers, coaches, and staff. On top of that, you have to keep the students in a good mood by providing top-notch facilities for studying and relaxing. And you have to do it all within your budget, of course. We liked the game's graphics. The colors are vibrant and the buildings distinct, so you won't, for instance, confuse two different classrooms. Similarly, the teachers, trainers, cooks, and other staff have their own unique characteristics: some are stricter, others have more skills, and some are more fun to be around. On the downside, some users have reported stability issues, and the 60-minute trial is frankly ridiculous considering how much time you'll have to spend downloading the 300MB trial version. Ramones fans also may be disappointed that they can't build a truly rock 'n' roll high school with this game. But overall, we think pedagogues and apple polishers of all ages will get a kick out of School Tycoon.
