I open the game. "Aero City" appears on the screen. "Hmm, this looks good", I say. I click the mouse button. I get a menu with random little people standing on aeroplanes and in front of houses. They take about 50% of the start menu. Then I start wondering: "Where do I start this game?"
Anyway, it's nice that the author was able to translate the game to English.

In the game, your character has needs, like in The Sims. They go down during time, and have to be refilled every now and then. The only problem in the needs system is, that they go down very fast. And that using public toilets costs money. The movement is, relatively to the player character size, very fast. The character moves in a small grid, which makes it easier to manage around. The interaction with NPC characters happens in Windows popups. I liked it... for some time...

The graphics are very small, but they didn't bother me. At least 'til I went fishing. And caught a fish. The fish was over 4 times bigger than the player, which I just couldn't understand. All the graphics, except the fish and plane gfx, are all of the same theme and go well together. Oh, and there's a car driving around Aero City. Looks like a box to me, though...

There are no sounds or music in the game so far, except the system sounds when a Windows popup pops up. But these I do not count as game sounds. The lack of sounds made me sad. Though the game works without sounds, too...

When you play the game for the first time, there are many doors open for you to choose. You can try to get money to buy a big house or furniture, you can go to the Vista Hotel School to enchance your 4 different skills, or just hang around with your friends in the hotel lobby. -On the 2nd time you play the game you have yourself the biggest house in the game, you have your stats maxed and you have enough money to buy anything you would ever want. What to do? Nothing, because the main server is offline - the game lasts for a short time, then gets a bit boring. Sadface.

The overall of the game is a ok-graphics, mute, short lasting, interesting, INCOMPLETE life-simulation concept. Yes, my personal opinion is that the game will becomemuch larger and better if the author just doesn't lose interest in continuing the game. I really hope this game will rise from what it is now.

My first review just had to be made of strict criticism. I'm so angry to myself I couldn't write a better review.

Well, gotta start somewhere...
