The Apprentice: Los Angeles Review

Written by: David Laprad Published: June 24, 2007 The Apprentice: Los Angeles from Legacy Games is proof casual game developers can deliver good licensed products. Based on the sixth season of the popular television show starring Donald Trump, The Apprentice: LA pits two teams of corporate hopefuls against each other in a competition for a job with the big man himself. Like the series, it involves participating in various challenges and going to the boardroom to have Trump eliminate one member when things don't go your way. The challenges in The Apprentice: LA will remind of you customer service games like Diner Dash and Snowy: Lunch Rush. In one, you serve clients in a sushi bar; in another, a clothing boutique on Rodeo Drive; and in a third, at a beach-front store in Santa Monica. You'll cycle through these challenges several times until you reach the final test, in which you serve celebrities at a swank Hollywood party. While the complex aspects of team management in the show are missing from the game, The Apprentice: LA is unique and fun, and provides plenty of challenge. In addition, the controls are as smooth as those in Snowy: Lunch Rush and the graphics more colorful and detailed than those in the Diner Dash series. Whether you're a fan of the show or just love customer service games, The Apprentice: LA is a winner.
