Nanny Mania

What a great game! At first I was a little skeptical. I mean, how could scurrying around doing housework actually be FUN? But, surprisingly enough, it is! Nanny Mania gets hectic very quickly when the family starts popping out kids, but that's half of the fun of being a nanny!

You know, when I first saw Nanny Mania I didn't think I would enjoy it. I have enough *real* chores to do around the house; why would I want to do more virtual chores? But it turned out to be a lot of fun. Just the same way that Cake Mania makes baking--something that's usually a chore--into a lot of fun, Nanny Mania makes cleaning up actually enjoyable!

Nanny Mania is a fun game. I wish the members of the household were more responsive to your presence, though. It feels almost creepy to have them totally and completely ignore you. If that were changed I think I would enjoy Nanny Mania that much more. Right now I like more responsiveness in my games, kind of like how Virtual Villagers 2 does it.

They should make a hidden object game with the Nanny Mania characters! Find trash around the house! Discover clues as to why the husband goes golfing 10 times a day! I really like those kinds of games, so I'm jazzed to find out that Hidden Expedition: Everest came out today. Hooray!
