Miss Management Game Review

Miss Management Game Review From our partner GameMile




Miss Management is a funny mix of time-management and simulation from Gamelab. In terms of genre, this game looks very much like Nanny Mania.

In the game, you are to handle the decision-making for and crazy peculiarities of your workers - while keeping everybody happy.

Get the work done, and keep the workers happy - these are the principal tasks of Miss Management.


In this game, you are Denise - a cute young lady at her first job. You are hired as an office manager. So your task is to accomplish the daily goals that include not only work that must be done, but also workers' needs that must be met.

You are to do all your duties within a certain period of time. The goals for each day are shown to you before each day, and you can take a look at them anytime during the game.

Each worker has things that irritate him/her, and each also has things that help him/her to relax.

Each day, you meet a new person in your office. Each worker has his/her personal peculiarities that you should know. There are things that he/she likes and doesn't like. For example, a girl Tara likes the whiteboard markers and doesn't like to communicate with people. It's important to know, because when Mahavir, a guy in the office, tries to chat with her, Tara gets stressed. Another example is that almost everyone gets irritated when Mahavir tumbles down on the coach to overcome his stress.

You have to be careful to not let your workers get stressed out accomplishing their daily goals.

The goals for the day may get one of the workers stressed, yet help others to relax at the same time. You can see how stressed a worker is with the help of the stress thermometer near each one of them. If fulfilling one of the goals gets somebody stressed, be careful not to lose that worker.

For some of the goals, you have a set time that must be spent on an activity, so taking a break can restore the stressed worker.

You are going to be on better terms with the workers of the office by getting to know them and talking to them in the beginning of every business day.

What makes Miss Management similar to the other games of this type is that you spend as much time on chatting with your workers as on the game itself. Before each day, you are to meet a new worker and discuss any arising problems with him/her.



Of course, it is not you personally who talks to them, but it feels like you are a part of the comics.

At first, it may seem like too much, but later you get so used to everyone in the office, like Mahavir - who thinks that he's the most handsome guy in the world, or Timothy - who's depressed all the time, and the game (oops, I mean your work) becomes really fun.

You should not focus on money-making. Remember that the psychological balance of your workers as well as goal-completion are your primary priorities.

Though you get some money for all the tasks accomplished by your workers, money is not the main factor of your success in this game. The game is not about getting money, it's about accomplishing your daily goals - which could mean letting Pearl smoke for 50 seconds or bringing Tara 2 whiteboard markers.

The money you get can be spent on the things in the shop for your workers, like a cup of coffee, a doughnut, a whiteboard marker, etc. Miss Management
is both an entertaining and challenging time-management game.

The graphics are very cute and attractive. It's clear that it took a great deal of developers' time and energy to release another quality game. The game is well worth it!
