Wendy's Wellness - Improve Your Management Skills, Run Your Business free trial version Mac and PC

wendys wellnessSugar Games, the creator of such popular casual games as Rainbow Web and Rainbow Web 2, announces the release of Wendy's Wellness - a new time management game. Developing your own chain of 10 fancy wellness centers will bring out your hidden management talents. Take a closer look at the fabulous world of health and wellness!

The story is set in a big bustling city, which does not have any wellness centers, so the citizens have no special place that would help them relax after a hectic workday and keep fit. You play as Wendy, who decides to start her own chain of wellness centers, and her uncle, a professional trainer, gives her help and useful advice. At first you have to deal with basic equipment and to do all the work yourself - but as the chain of centers grows and the number of customers increases, Wendy's wellness centers become well-equipped, glamorous and popular with the citizens. You need to use all your management skills to cope with the great number of customers and to hit the objectives of each level. But your hard work will be rewarded by the customers' gratitude and, of course, by their tips.

Wendy's wellness center is visited by different types of customers: football players, cheerleaders, ballet dancers, gymnasts, businessmen, fatties and flirty girls. Above all customers there are icons denoting what they want: warming-up, treadmill exercises, taking a bath, body massage, doing yoga or tanning. Of course, there is a line, and the customers are waiting for you to serve them. Some of them are more patient, others are less. The patience is shown as hearts above a customer's head, which disappear one by one as she (or he) loses his patience. When there are no hearts left, the customer leaves without paying; so you should be attentive to impatient customers and serve them quickly and properly. You can also buy a mini-bar with drinks and aroma oil that makes your customers more patient and calm.

You see, running a wellness center is quite challenging, but you are not alone in the face of difficulties! A coach, a masseuse and a tanning assistant will be of great help, if you have enough money to hire them. There are 30 possible equipment upgrades that let you reduce the service time and increase the capacity of your wellness centers. As Wendy gains experience, you can use it to gain special personal upgrades and bonuses (higher speed, extra tips, extra hearts, treadmill bonus etc.). Learn, practice and achieve success!

The game environment is peaceful and pleasant: unobtrusive relaxing music, vivid and cheerful colors, optional volume of sounds. The interface is intuitive and simple, so this game is a good variant either for adults or for children. There are 10 centers and 50 levels, 5 levels for each location. Besides the main action, you will definitely enjoy VIP-training -12 additional mini-games, which give extra opportunity to earn some money.

Features:

- 50 challenging levels and 10 fancy centers
- 12 VIP training mini-games
- 6 Wendy's skills to develop
- 30 equipment upgrades to purchase and 3 employees to hire
- Relaxing music and pleasant game environment
