  • The best shopping mall sim on the iPhone this year!

    I wish I could find something negative to say about this game, but like every other title from the studio it held my attention for the entire length of the game (12 hours or so). I cannot think of any other game on any platform I can say that about. And this company has now released their fourth.The game is quirky and fun. Fans of other Kairosoft games will be happy to see King Akbar and Chimpan Z return as well as some new characters I hadn't seen before.$3.99 might be a little pricey if you're not already somewhat invested in the other games too. But Kairosoft always offers a lite version so try the lite, try the others. They're all great!When Pocket Academy was released I was in Atlanta visiting a friend and we each started playing (me on my iPhone, him on my iPad) at around 3 in the afternoon and though we had planned to go out drinking that night the day flew by and we never made it out. Now he wants me to visit again with this release. Ha! How embarrassing.

  • Absolutely love it!

    So I'm an avid simulation game player and I used to love sim tower when I was younger so I decided to give this game a try. Well it wasn't very long before I was completely hooked on it. Mega mall story is a wonderful tower/store simulation game. There are a large variety of stores and facilities that you can build and many different types of customers to serve. The graphics are cute and colorful and game's UI is very easy to use. I've been playing it for hours at a time. One again Kairo has delivered a delightfully complex yet easy to understand sim game that you can play over and over again and without those infuriating in-app purchases that most games require you to buy to fully enjoy the experience. Well worth the $5 price. My only wish is that the devs would add some more content in an update. Thanks guys!

  • Why 4 Stars

    Ive been currently working on beating everyone of their games. I have beaten Edo towns and game dev and have just beaten this one. It had a slow start which almost made me delete it but once you get into it its really fun. People saying they are having trouble with the "rival malls" are just not saving and spending money wisely. I had everything thing unlocked including investments, buildings, etc and with a total of 42 million dollars by the end of the game and i never had gone under my budget. As long as you don't get a buy a stores at the beginning of the game like crazy you will be fine.In conclusion, i would highly recommend this app if you played their other games and know what to expect. I wouldn't want to start their games with this one. I have a feeling people might get bored and quit.

  • Great Sim. Needs more content.

    This is a great Mall sim and the closest thing I'll get to playing Sim Tower again. I loved Game Dev and this title is just as amazing. However, the only problem is that for the $4 pricetag it could use more content. Here's some suggestions:*Remove Mall Size Limits - a 12 story mall is pretty insane. But there's so many stores and only 1 horizontal upgrade that after you unlock all the stores (not including combos, in which case you need multiple of the same stores) it's almost impossible to fit it all in there.*Include some initiative for game completion/new game+ - The only real problem I had is that even though the endgame is 15 years, with weeks going by as fast as they do the game ends very quickly. Aside from getting a high score there's no reason to do it all over again. How about a new game+ where you get to keep all your money as well as sell back your stores for money (the higher level they are the more you get) and maybe even some type of prize/special shop for getting a certain amount of clear points. This will encourage people to play it again and again. Just some ideas. Other than that, great game!

  • 5/5 standalone, but 3/5 for a kairosoft game

    Yet again Kairosoft makes an addicting, well-put-together simulation game that overflows with their personal style. If this is the first game you've played by the company then get ready to not put your phone down for the next 2 days straight. But if you're like me and you've downloaded all of the Kairosoft games, then Mega Mall is a bit of a disappointment. There are 2 major problems with this game that other kairosoft games don't suffer from as much: 1. The game is too easy. I unlocked almost everything on just my first playthrough. 2. The replay value of Mega Mall is horrible. Its difficult to imagine anyone wanting to play it more than 2 times because you'll already have unlocked everything by then.
