    The only thing particularly wrong with Mall Tycoon 3 is provided right in the game’s title. After three installments of this series alone, not to mention the gazillion other tycoon games, Mall Tycoon 3 simply doesn’t offer anything that hasn’t been done so many other times before.

    Unfortunately, the game's grip on economic simulation feels relatively loose and a little too randomized. I don't get a sense of shoppers flowing from one direction to the other, and therefore I can't attempt to divert foot traffic to where I want it to go.

    The challenges aren’t really challenging at all and it seemed to drag on as I played more. The rewards of playing more didn’t feel that gratifying to earn.

    The economic model guilding the action is ridiculously off-kilter. [Feb 2006, p.66]
