Lemonade Tycoon Demo

Starting a business from the ground up is no easy task, which is the reason so many of them fail every day. However, even if you do not get enough money to compete with Microsoft, you can still maintain a successful business at a much smaller scale. Convenience stores and various other family endeavors can last for generations, as long as you do not get too eager and greedy.

Lemonade Tycoon is a simulator in which you have to build a lemonade stand empire from scratch, using nothing but lemons, a few plastic cups and the occasional ice cube to cool off your thirsty customers. After a while, you can begin moving your enterprise from the neighbourhood and target slightly more populated areas, or even move to the mall and try to attract business using marketing.

However, things are a bit more complicated in the beginning, because you must stumble upon the perfect recipe first. Otherwise, your customers won’t enjoy the lemonade and won’t come back a second time. The game allows you to set up the number of lemonades per pitcher, the amount of sugar and the number of ice cubes. Depending on the weather, the customer satisfaction is related to how many ice cubes you put in each glass.

Once the business gets up and running with a steady customer stream every day, you can start thinking bigger. The game allows you to upgrade the stand with a variety of useful gimmicks, such as faster machines to make the lemonade, or a cover to protect the customers from the sun. Cashiers and entertainers can be hired as well, in case you want to expand the enterprise even more.

Although the game is still rather basic and aimed at a more casual audience, there are plenty of statistics and reports displayed for your convenience, including graphs regarding the sales and their relationship with the temperature outside. You can get familiar with the user interface in a matter of minutes, especially if you have played such games before.

All things considered, Lemonade Tycoon has what it takes to keep you playing for a while, even if the lasting appeal dissolves quite quickly if you reach the top once. Hence, if you are on the lookout for a cheap thrill in the form of a tycoon game, this may very well be a good choice.
