 | | What with the constant book balancing, employee problems and the tedium of day-to-day operations, it's hardly the kind of situation that would seem to translate well to the electronic gaming format, which is solely about entertainment rather than job satisfaction. |
 | | Nevertheless, the best business management simulations of the past, such as Railroad Tycoon, have provided countless hours of diversion as players endeavor to maximize profits while balancing their available resources, keeping a sharp eye out for the opportunity to financially smash their opponents into the ground. |
 | | Much like this obscure classic, Airline Tycoon puts the player into the shoes of a airline president, whose job it is to ensure the success of his or her company by signing up orders, arranging worldwide routes, managing employees, purchasing planes and fuel, and so on. |
