I was just a little kid when I first played the game. This is a very beautiful nostalgia for me. Musics of this game was wonderful for a good summer vibe. I still listen most of them today! Thanks for the restrospective ❤
I have finally finished this game after first discovering it when I was a kid. While the sandbox mode is chill, the campaign is not. You have tight deadlines forcing you to optimize and milk your builders as much as possible on the first day. Missions are short so you are encouraged to experiment with different build orders to achieve the goal. This is more similar to an RTS in this aspect. I was actually pleased with this take on the genre but you have to know what you're in for. Some parts lack depth, probably because it was rushed out of development. Security is useless outside of that one mission. Beers are a good idea but the execution did not deliver. You will really only use the ones that make people happy or horny.
The missions weren't easy that's for sure. I was the same, i finished the game for this review and never finished it as a kid. It amazes me that no developer has tried to make a similar game..
@@monoko3484 You can use the link in the video's description. This is the US version. I got the EU version from oldgames download. I also had to use DDrawCompat for it to be playable on Windows 11.
I remember playing the demo of this game a LOT as a kid, I didn't even remember the name of it until now. I'll definitely check it out, thanks for the video!
Loved this game so much, it's abandonware now so you can get it for free, just need to do a little bit of hackerman stuff due to teh game's age and you're good to go.
Ah yeah, no game brought with it the feeling of summer holidays and novel tropical experiences just like Beach Life. I remember being just a kid and playing this game just before embarking on a trip to Croatia with my parents and friends during my summer break. Amazing vibe.
Check the description for the download link. In one of the comments below i explained how to get it to work on modern machines! Send me a message here if you can't get it to work!
Thanks man. I've scanned my pc multiple times since downloading it. It's legit! If you run into fps issues you can use this guide to fix it: ruclips.net/video/fasotR-uP-U/видео.html
i found the US version from Chinese website.. they mod the game to translate texts into Chinsese...got schooldays memory with this game.. @@GameTalesHQ
Sadly, there is no alternative that I know of. I did get it to work on Windows 11 myself but I don't remember how I did it, I think I found some help on a forum!
i’ve been playing this game since i was 7 or 8 but still don’t know how to expand the area🥲‘cause it’s impossible to arrange all buildings. can someone tell me how to do it pls?
I don't think you can expand the play area, not being able to build everything is part of the puzzle! There's one sandbox map where i got almost everything down though.
If you want a good vibes, chill management game, this is the one!
Incredible soundtracks as well.
Not many titles can match the chill vibe this game creates!

Thank you for watching friend!
That music is legendary to me.
This game unlocked childhood memories! I could mistake the UI for a Maxis IP. Great video!

No problem! it still holds up!
I'm in love with your bite-sized essay videos
Thank you
I just came across your channel and boy you’re good ❤
Thank you so much! I do think my older videos haven't aged as well since I've learned a lot since then. But I'm glad you enjoy them :)
Nice review I love this game so much. I spent so many time trying to do the most hellish resort, this game gave you so much freedom.
childhood memories 🚀🇲🇨

It aged like fine wine. I'm surprised that no game developer has tried to make something similar in 20 years, crazy!
I loved this game!!

I really want this on Steam 🙂
That would be amazing!

Is there any alternative to this game? It’s not working properly on new windows releases.
