Unique sims you enjoy

With the recent discovery of an airline industry sim and a few weeks back somebody found a restaurant manager sim, I'm interested in finding out what other unique sims you guys play. I was interested in Rock Manager (budget title) but I heard it was very short. I might still pick it up but I wanted to know what other unique games you all recommend. I love my sports sims, but I think it's time for a change.

Rock Manager wasn't too bad, but true it's very short. Finished the game in a few hours.

I've already e-mailed the company and they got back to me within 24 hours, less than 24 hours. Screenshots will be up in a few days and they are working on a feature list.

It's almost $60 with shipping to the states.

From the e-mails I've exchanged already ... this game sounds sweeeet!!!!

Here's the link for Rock Manager I'll look into WSR, I had heard of that game before. I'm a college student, so maybe I'll learn something in the process.

mrskippy- Be sure to let us all know how you like the Airline sim. Maybe a dynasty thread?

dola- When I tried to download the demo, I got a corrupted file message. Anybody know where I can find a clean copy of the demo? So far I've only been able to find links back to the official site, where I got the corrupted demo from.

If you're into football, theres this one game I heard of, but haven't looked into much. Called "Front Office Football" or something. Aparently, they've made a few of them, so it must have a following somewhere.

Yeah, I've heard the same thing. Made by some dude named Jim Gindin. Apparently this guy's made a career out of it, so it must be good. Hmmm... what was the company called?

Dammit ... oh that's it ...

Rock Manager has a free update to "Gold Version."

Is that the version you guys have played? Perhaps it makes the game longer and more enoyable?

I enjoyed the demo of Hollywood Mogul, but never bought the full game.
