The Beach Life
My brother is going crazy about this so I started playing too.
It’s a simulation game that allows you to choose an island to build your own beach resort and manage it to earn money for repairs and upgrades. You can also decide on how much the food and hotel fees will cost. And maintain the wages of the workers so they won’t get lazy building structures in you resort like:
Pavement- you should build this first, build a cat walk from the hotel to the beach, if the beach people can’t find a path to the beach they will get lost and get irritated.
Electricity Plant- after building the pavement, you should make some of this to supply electricity in your resort so you won’t spoil the fun (especially in the disco bar).
The General Store- which sells sun block lotions (I make this very expensive because it always have a high demand.)
The Cleaner’s Shack- you need to build this so you can hire janitors to clean the resort or the customers will start to complain or worse they will get sick because your resort is filthy and worst is they will leave the resort with a sad face and that would lower you popularity bar.
The Electrician’s Shack – build this so you can hire an electrician to fix electricity problems.
Police Station- so you could hire police officers to maintain peace in your beach resort especially when everybody’s wasted already from drinking booze.
Amusement Park – this is like a small casino, you should build this when the customers start flowing or they’ll get bored.
Disco Bar- this is just a big circle with disco lights and speakers. You can adjust the entrance fee as well. if this gets crowded you should build another one.
Hot dog, Burger and Soft drinks Stalls – Of course your customers need this, they have to eat! But you would want to put trash cans beside every stall; the customers tend to be very dirty sometimes.
Restaurants – they also want to have decent meal when they get tired of eating only hotdogs and burgers.
Booze Stands - what is beach without booze?!
Beach Rides – Banana ride, speed boats etc.
Swimming Pool – you should build this as an alternative when sharks are playing at the shores (you don’t want your customers to be eaten by sharks, you’ll lost a big amount of money and even lose the game.)
“Smaller” Hotel – at the start of the game you already have a hotel which can accommodate 200 guests (I guess, I forgot.) But when people are still flowing, this “smaller” hotel comes to the rescue to accommodate them.
Lifeguard House – people would freak out if somebody’s drowning and there’s no lifeguard around. There are other structures (I forgot some of them but the above mentioned are the important ones), they are very easy to build, no worries.
To unlock the other islands which are bigger and has prettier weather to celebrate summer and to perfect tanning, you should complete the goals given in every island. Goals like you have to sell 15 of sun blocks in just 3 days or you have to build 2 disco bars or don’t let your customers to get eaten by the sharks (this goal pisses me off, ‘ços my beach people are always getting eaten. I never had the chance to unlock the last island because of that goal.) To survive the game, just be spontaneous in adjusting the prices and fees don’t be greedy or else no one will visit your resort, of course you have to increase fees if you upgraded something. Always put lights on the pavement so when they light up at night, people will like it and it’ll increase your resort’s reputation (which is sometimes needed to complete goals.) Try to buy flyers for advertisements to increase the number of people visiting your resort. You will know your customer’s thoughts and comments about your resort by clicking the bubble above their head, of course you know what sad and happy faces means.
(Forgive my wrong grammars; I just want to write something.)
