I
like this game a lot,but too short. Probably not worth the price! There are
things that can make this game better. For one, there is a backyard and no
tasks are out there! Nanny should have to play with them in the backyard! There
is a stereo, coat hanger, and ironing board; but no tasks there either. These
are click-able, but nothing! They should have a dog, also! this is a great game
for a little kid..please bring to kindel so we can down load. my granddaughter
loves this game.
The nanny in Nanny Mania does everything except drive the kids. Then again, the family's head of household is the Suburbia's Mayor, so he probably has a chauffeur.

You're
working to keep the house clean and the family happy. Nanny Mania also
resembles a Sims game in that you watch the family live their lives. When
furniture or book shelves need cleaning, they appear highlighted in yellow.
Click once and nanny's arms flail and poof the item is clean. Some tasks take
more than one click such as changing the baby's diaper, giving the baby a
bottle and cooking a meal.
The
game begins with the parents and one baby. Easy. Each level has five rounds.
When you complete a level, the parents have another child and the younger ones
get older. The most the nanny handles is four children. After that, the only
thing that changes is the age of the kids, the messes they make and the
frequency of the messes. Eventually, you won't have to deal with dirty diapers
or warming bottles.
I
thought the game would change once all four kids arrived. It doesn't and the
game turns monotonous. I feel like I start every level doing the same steps
with small variations. Soon, I dislike Dad because he goes off to work or plays
golf leaving Mom alone to eat with the four kids.
I
figure out the family's routine. When Dad returns from anything, I expect muddy
footprints and a messy dresser. Sometimes I follow him into his bedroom where
he changes his clothes and messes the dresser so I can fix the dresser.
A
Mac user playing the game became frustrated when he clicked ahead and struggled
to undo some moves when something unexpected happened like mealtime. Mac users
don't have two mouse buttons on their notebooks. I am an unlucky gal who
doesn't own a Mac, but I imagine the Mac has an option for undo. For PC users,
undo actions by pressing the right-mouse button.
The
game may attract the younger set as repetition helps them improve game play.
But for me, I play enough so I can write this review. I have no desire to play
Nanny Mania. The game's strengths are the graphics and speed (some games have
subtle pauses or take too long to make something happen). I believe Nanny Mania
could have greater success if it would introduce more elements to offer more
variety. Apparently, the player takes over the fole of Mom and a teen, but I
couldn't take it anymore.
