The Tower arrived in the mail today. My first Japanese game! I'll post pics probably tomorrow when my other Japanese game will probably arrive. (by the way, this is the first time I've tested an import game on BarryBurton's AR - works perfectly )
Anyway, I used to play Sim Tower as a kid, so I blew my load when I found out that it was available on the Saturn. I'd never seen it on eBay before, or even heard it mentioned. There's a two minute video on YT with someone giving it a try and that is literally all there is. Not even Carter, CGR or COE have reviewed it, and they all have loads of Saturn reviews. The game plays pretty much how I remember, although I forget certain things (which I had to play with). It's really easy to pick up and plays surprisingly well on console.
What do you guys think to it? Anyone else here have it? I picked it up for 5 euros in perfect condition, so it seems like a dirt cheap addition to anyone's collection.

EDIT: Found out how to save. Turns out the game needs just short of 500 blocks to save!!! Had to move everything to the AR. After that, save/load was pretty easy to figure out.
Now the main issue is finding out how/if you can run simulation mode to speed things up. Having to wait 10/15 mins for money is a bit of a pain. I remember the pc version had a fast forward button that could speed things up a lot, which would slow down for events.

So yeah, any help as well as your thoughts will be great! I hope to get a YT video up of an [abridged] build of my first Tower (technically second as I lost a small bit of my first trying to save ) so people can check that out if they want to see how it plays!
