An interesting simulation, Lemonade Tycoon, boasts of making its players "thirsty for more". You begin the game with a lemonade stand, a recipe, and a dream of becoming the Lemonade Tycoon. You read the weather forecast and the newspaper headlines to evaluate consumer trends and find the most customers. Once you buy your ingredients, set your price, you wait for sales to come in. The smart tycoon then invest profits in upgrades to improve efficiency and increase sales. At the day's end you get to see if you've reached the "Tycoon" status.

This game may be perfect for those who still regret missing their opportunity to own and operate the neighborhood lemonade stand. Might that be you?...
