Fix-it-up World Tour 

 

Fix-it-up World Tour allows players to purchase vehicles, clean them up, and sell them for profit. Fix-it-up World Tour also allows us to rent the vehicles out. There is only so much time in each level (especially if you want to earn the gold) so you have to decide which is more important to you. Things like having to buy parts also have to go into the equation.

Fix-it-up World Tour is a time management game that also requires some accounting skills. Do not let that freak you out though. I found you can wing it and do a good job as well. At least for a time. Although extremely lucky players may go from beginning to the end with the winging it strategy. I enjoy seeing how long I can wing it in a game like Fix-it-up World Tour.

G5 Entertainment has a long history of creating games with amazing details. Fix-it-up World Tour is no exception. The people, vehicles, and buildings all look very realistic. The characters in Fix-it-up World Tour are ethnically diverse. Each of them have different motives, and there is some conflict in terms of competition.

There are thirty-nine levels in Fix-it-up World Tour. Plus there are also fifteen bonus levels. There are eighteen different locations, and twenty different kinds of cars. Expect to spend a few days to a week or so playing Fix-it-up World Tour. Levels can be replayed for a higher score. There are also upgrades, achievements and more.

I love the concept of Fix-it-up World Tour. Pick up a car, and move it over to the different shops. Double click on a car to clean it. Moving the car to specific parking spots are either for renting or selling. I ran into some problems picking up vehicles. Part of that has to do with the touch screen dynamic, and the other part is the vehicle was not selected.

Fix-it-up World Tour can teach the basic lessons of being an entrepreneur. It also can encourage people to be greedy. Fix-it-up World Tour teaches the concepts of purchasing low, fixing up, and selling higher. This is done every single day in the automobile industry. I learned the quicker I turned this around the more money I made. Which are basic concepts of that industry.
