Here's a little info on the game and FAQ itself.

> The Walkthrough [WALK]

Welcome to the Mall Tycoon Walkthrough! I'm Antwan and I wrote this FAQ to
guide you on how to play this game. I own this game and I seem to come back
to it every once in a while. After looking up FAQ's, I realized that there
isn't a sufficient one, so I decided to give it a shot. This is my first
guide; bear with me if there are any mistakes.

If you have any hints/suggestions on my walkthrough, e-mail me at
aec22190@yahoo.com for your input. All help will be appreciated and credited.
This FAQ should not be reproduced or placed anywhere in the public without my
consent. If you see this FAQ anywhere except for GameFAQs and its affiliates,
then let me know by e-mail.

Mall Tycoon was created by Holistic Design and published by Take2 Interactive
in 2002. It's a business strategy game where you can run your own mall and do
your best to keep it efficient, clean, convenient and attractive. You can try
to pass certain objectives or make a mall of your own! With up to 64 stores
and extra facilities to add to your mall as well as decorative items and
promotions, you can make the ultimate shopping institution that even the Mall
of America might find as a suitable opponent!

-------------------
> The Menu [MENU] <
-------------------

After the game loads and you go through the company logos, the game starts at
the main screen with five words to click on: Campaign, Free Play, Options,
Credits, and Exit.

> Campaign [CAM1]

This button will lead you to the campaign mode. In it, you'll find a menu full
of titles that lead to the campaigns. At the right of that, there's a screenshot
of the mall and a written description. You can click on the green arrow to
select it or click on the red arrow to go back.

The menu has three things to offer: campaigns, layouts, and free mode set at
different years. Once you accept the campaign, it will bring up the description
to remind you of your objectives. If you need to check on them again, press R.

> Free Play [FRE1]

When you click on free play, it will take you to another menu. You can build
your new mall by clicking on the hammer, load an existing mall by clicking on
the CD with the arrow pointing away, or try out the tutorial by clicking on the
button with numbers.

The button with the man and woman takes you to the demographics menu where you
can use sliders to set the type of people to go to your mall. You can set the
gender, age group, and shopper income. The menu will automatically set it so
that all groups will still equal 100% (like 40% male shoppers will always
result in 60% female shoppers). There is also the difficulty setting which is
shown by a man lifting a dumbbell. You can set it to easy ($20,000), normal
($10,000), or hard ($5,000).

> Options [OPT1]

The options menu has only a few settings to tinker. The CD with two arrows is
the autosave button. When it is on, it will automatically save at a monthly
basis. It will be on when it's green and off when it's purple. The load button
(CD with arrow pointing away) is also here.

The monitor takes you to the video settings where you can toggle the following
from left to right: rendering the lower floors when you go upstairs, activating
the grid (pressing G works too), making the shadows appear or disappear, letting
the game run in 16-bit or 32-bit, setting the lighting on or off, and choosing
which level of detail you want the game to run (1, 2, or 3).

The speaker takes you to the sound settings. You can set how loud you want the
sound, ambience, and music to be and test them with the top buttons. You can
also decide whether you want the crowd sounds (occurs when the mall has over
99 customers) and promotional sounds (occurs when your atrium is promoting
something and your camera is hovering over it). The arrow buttons below the CD
can let you skip to the previous or next track. By the way, once you install
the game, you don't actually need the CD to play, so you can put any type of
music you wish on a CD! Who wouldn't want to build malls while listening to
Enimen's Recovery?

When you're done, you can click on the checkmark to accept the changes or the
x to decline them.

> Credits [CRED]

This button shows you who made the game in some weird letter effects. If it
bores you (what a surprise) then you can click on the checkmark to exit.

> Exit [EXIT]

If you ever want to stop playing, click on the exit button.


-------------------
> Gameplay [PLAY] <
-------------------

When you start the game, you will see a view of the mall lot, a ticker for
messages at the bottom of the screen, and the buttons at the right side.

> The View [VIEW]

Here, you can see the mall lot to check how the mall is going, build new
additions, or deconstruct. To move around, simply scroll your cursor to the
edges of the screen or use the arrow keys. Holding down the right mouse button
will allow you to rotate the camera when scrolling left or right and zoom in
and out when going up and down. Holding down the shift key and pressing the
arrow keys has the same effect.

When you scroll out, detail starts to fade away. When you zoom out far enough,
the stores will have icons on them to show you which is which. When you're
close enough, you can see the people inside the store and your promotions in
effect as well as hearing them.

The left mouse button allows you to place items in your mall, whether it be
scenery, walls, or stores. If the tile is highlighted green, you can place it.
If it's highlighted red, then it's either obstructing something or it's blocked
from entry. You can also destroy things when you click on the bulldozer which
is located in several menus.

> The Ticker [TICK]

The scrolling messages on the bottom keep track of any events or problems in
your mall. At the end of the month, it informs you which store had the most
customers and which store made the most profit. Furthermore, it alerts you of
any occurrences of crime, trash, employees, advertising, and milestones (like
the 1000th customer). In addition, it lets you know when the program is
autosaving if it's turned on.

The three buttons on the lower left corner lets you go to the previous and next
message as well as see any current messages in case there are too many to go
through. Old messages are deleted automatically.

> The Buttons [BUTT] (ha ha butt)

The menu is where you can perform everything you wish as mall tycoon. Each of
these buttons helps you expand, take care, or keep track of your mall.

>>> Build [BUIL]

This is where your mall can come to life or less metaphorically, can be built.
First, there's the floor, where you can choose a variety of patterns by using
the scroll bar. When you like your selection, click on the floor pattern, then
feel free to install your carpeting or stone by holding down the left mouse
button and scrolling. When you think you have enough floor, let go of the left
mouse button and it's installed. Floor costs $10 a square.

You can also choose walls to surround your mall. Again, you choose the wall by
using the scroll bar, then clicking on the pattern. You can hold down the left
mouse button and scroll it near the edges of the floor tile to place wall.
Of course, this can take a while and inaccuracies will be made. You can avoid
this by using the autowall option above your selections where wall is
automatically placed, surrounding your floor. Wall is also 10 bucks a pop.

WARNING: If you placed grass tiles outside your mall, then autowall will
consider it floor and surround your mall. It will instantly cause your
customers to go home because they can't get inside!

The store button will show you the sizes and types of stores you can build.
There are four types of stores: boutiques ($100), horizontal stores ($250),
vertical stores ($500), and department stores ($1000). Remember, when you
build a new floor, the department store expands upward, letting you put
more types of stores inside. Keep in mind of the green square, because your
customers enter and exit there. A store cannot share the same entrance with
another store, so take account on how much room you want.

By the way, if you haven't noticed, there are curved arrows which can help you
rotate anything in 90 degree angles. Just click on the button and hover back to
the view to see if it's in the direction you want.

As for the store types, there are 64 types of stores to choose from which are
divided into eight groups. 16 of them will need to be researched and they will
be available as years pass by. To place a store type, you must select the store
you want and then place it in an empty store. Boutiques hold one, horizontal and
verticals hold two, and department stores can hold four per floor. It costs
money to place a store and the price can be seen in the bottom right. To find
out the stores and their prices, you can click and hover over the button or you
can check out the miscellaneous section of this FAQ.

The button with the door on it is where you can build entrances. This is how
people can enter your mall and where greeters can be placed. To place an
entrance, you need to have a wall to place it on and floor to have it under.
Make sure to place the entrance on the inside of the building. There is also a
revolving entrance and a metal detector that can be researched.

The stairs has three things that you can build: stairs, escalators, and
elevators. These can help take your customers to the second or third floor of
the mall and back. Stairs can take up 2x2 spaces and have a cost of $50,
escalators take up 1x2 and cost $100, elevators are 1x1 and $200. When you
place any of these, it might ask you if you want to build a second floor. If
you agree, you will go to the next floor and it will be built. Elevators have
the ability to go to three floors, but it keeps your customers waiting longer.

The final button leads to special structures. There you can build your atriums
and other big buildings for a price. Atriums have the ability to hold special
promotions every month to lure customers and its space is a fine place to rest.
Atriums are only allowed on the first floor and no second or third floor can
lay on top of an atrium. The special structures add a special service to your
mall. Bathrooms keep the place clean, restaurants keep your customers fed, play
areas give children a place to roam around in, and movie theatres can provide
entertainment and rest. You can unlock larger versions and two new stores that
are sponsors (cheap way to put a tie in... but it makes you wonder why nobody
else joined).

>>> Scenery [SCE1]

A mall's gotta look good; fountains, benches and trees can help with that... if
you can ignore the blatant 2D graphics. The button with a tree takes you to
the scenery menu where you can choose several pieces of beauty. Once you
decided which type of scenery you want, you can use the scroll bar to see what
kinds of it there are and then click on the one you want. You can place the
scenery anywhere so long as the square below it is green.

Scenery basically increases the attractiveness of your mall, causing your
customers to stay longer to shop. Some pieces have other effects like making
the mall more secure or boost sales. If you want to see what kinds of scenery
do what, then check out the miscellaneous section below.

>>> Mall Information [INFO]

This is where you can keep track of the stats, stores, and ratings of your mall.
When you're doing a campaign, you can use this to see how close you are to
completing your goals. From top to bottom and left to right, here is what you
can find:

* The top right contains a list of all your stores made in order of when they
were first built with the number of stores on the bottom. If you click on the
store, it will bring up the store's stats. There you can see the name of your
store, the date it was built, how many customers it had this month and since it
was built, the gross sales, and the monthly revenue. There are also two sliders
at the bottom: rent and sales cut. Rent is what the store pays you at the end of
the month and sales cut is how much the mall gets when the store sells its
product. You can access this information when you click on the store too.

* The text that reads "The Mall" is the name of your mall. You can change it if
you wish by clicking on it.

* The number of floors. That's pretty self-explanatory.

* Right by your list of stores is your list of loans. With them, you can have
$1,000 dollars at the cost of a $10 monthly fee and a slight decrease of your
mall rating. To get a loan, you can press the button with money and a plus sign
on it. If you earn enough cash to not rely on the loan anymore, you can pay
them back by selecting the loan and pressing the button with money and a minus
sign on it. If you accept the loans, press the green checkmark.

* The number of the type of stores are shown below the list of stores. It is
shown in order: boutiques, horizontals, verticals, department stores, and
special structures (bathrooms, restaurants, etc).

* Your mall rating. It shows how well rated your mall is overall in the opinion
of your customers. Click on the mall rating to see a chart of your rating in
other months. It helps let you know if your rating is increasing or not. You
can use the arrows to scroll through the chart.

* Attractiveness is how beautiful your mall is. Scenery, greeters, and other
stuff can increase this.

* Crowdedness is measured by how many people are in your mall to how big your
mall is. People have different preferences about how crowded they like the
store.

* Security level shows how secure your mall is, which can be increased by
guards and security cameras. People have different preferences about how high
the security should be.

* Current shoppers are the shoppers currently in your mall.

* Total shoppers counts every shopper that has visited your mall.

* The number of maintenance workers who keep your mall nice and tidy.

* The number of security guards who keep track of crime and suspicious
activity.

* The number of greeters who increase attraction by, well, greeting.

* Your mall value: simply how much your whole mall costs. This can be increased
by placing more of... anything! Even placing something as simple as a sign can
give your mall a boost. A higher mall value increases customer satisfaction
probably because of property values. This value lowers over time unless you
replace old things or buy new ones.

* Gross sales are how many sales you made entirely.

* Store revenues are how much all your stores make in sales for an entire
month.

* Cash on hand is how much money you currently have to work with.

* The current date shown with a calendar at the left of it.

* Store rents are how much all your stores pay rent on a monthly basis.

>>> Financial Information [FINA]

Money is everything, at least in Mall Tycoon. You got to keep track of your
finances to ensure that your efforts are actually making you a profit and if
not, what is costing you the most. To keep track of that, this button with a
dollar sign on it will show you your monthly expenditures and income. That is
your income statement. It has the following:

Expenditures                               Income

* Construction: How much you built.        * Rent: Your stores' monthly pay.
* Maintenance: Caring for your mall.       * Sales: Your total sales cut.
* Salaries: The pay of your workers.       * Subtotal: Total of your profits.
* Marketing: Your advertisements.          * Profit: Income minus expenditures.
* Special Events: Your atrium's events.
* R & D: Your research.
* Loan Interest: The fee of your loans.
* Subtotal: Total of your expenses.

The other three buttons at the top right are graphs and you can use the arrows
to scan through the different months. The first keeps track of your mall value,
the second shows your profit (red is money spent, white is money lost/gained,
and green is profit), and the third graphs out your cash in hand.

>>> Customers [CUST]

This button lets you keep track of what kinds of customers are coming to your
mall. The people are separated by age, gender, and income. You can mouse over
the picture of the customer or cash to see who's who. The groups are from top
to bottom: young male, young female, adult male, adult female, senior male,
senior female, low income, middle income, high income. Using this can help you
choose what kind of stores should you pay more attention to and how much sales
cut you should have.

Incidentally, clicking on a customer will reveal more about that customer in a
mini window while the camera follows him/her. It lists the gender, age, amount
of money, hunger, opinion of crowds, opinion of security, the store he/she is
going to, and how many purchases he/she makes. You can use to see how your
customers act and how satisfied they are.

>>> Employees [EMP1]

If only malls could keep themselves clean of filth and crime. Sadly, you'll
need employees to ensure that. There are three types of employees you can hire:
sanitation, security, and greeting. You can press the green button to hire
somebody or the red button to fire a selected employee in the list (if you
haven't selected one, it'll fire the last guy on the list). You can select
employees by clicking on the list and the game will go right to them and follow
them.

When you hire somebody, the salary is immediately paid for, so choose wisely
how many employees you want. You can research for better employees to increase
their speed and effectiveness. However, this also increases their salaries, so
decide wisely if your mall can handle the expense.

A special note: employees may get stuck sometimes, so you can fire and rehire
the person by searching for him and removing him.

>>> Research [RES2]

Now, before you get your hopes up, there isn't any chemistry or mad scientist
happenings going on here. Here you can ask your development team to research a
product and they'll go out on the street to find the best people or material
for it to happen. You can pick four types of research: merchandise, mall
improvement, employees and equipment, and marketing and promotions.

After you selected which thing you want to research, a description and price
appears at the bottom of the screen. You won't pay for it all at once, but over
time when development grows. Once you selected something to research, you can
click on the dollar sign to research it. You can keep track of it by hovering
over the button and see what percent of it is complete. You can't research
anything else while something is being researched, so it will give you the
option to cancel the project to start a new one. Be weary when deciding this
because you will not get that money you spent researching back.

>>> Marketing and Promotion [PROM]

Commercialism and advertising go together like cereal and milk. So if you want
more people to come by, you gotta get the word out. This will take you to the
marketing and promotion window where you can set up advertising campaigns and
promotions. To set up advertising, you can choose a list of media on the left:
television ($100), radio ($90), mail ($85), newspaper ($100), and billboard
($75). Once you selected it, press the green button to run the campaign. You
can use the slider above after selecting your campaign to let it run from a
month to a year. Be warned, advertising is paid by the week, so make sure you
have enough profit to run those campaigns!

To the right is a 3x4 grid where you can place promotions for your atrium to
hold. The small vertical slider at the top shows you several promotions and
their prices. When you make your selection, click on it and then click on the
month you want it in. There are only four to choose initially, but you can
research a lot more to bring in more customers. Some promotions are only
allowed in certain months and they will be marked with green text. If you want
to know what the promotions are, check out the miscellaneous section.

>>> Options [OPT2]

The options here is like the options in the main menu (which you can refer to
if you already forgot), but there are two extra buttons. The green button with
the arrow pointing towards the CD is the save button. When you're satisfied
with your mall so far, you just save the game in any name you wish. There is
also the option to exit your mall when you're done playing for now. It will
take you back to the main screen.

>>> Next Floor [NEXT]

This takes you to the next floor. If you don't have a second or third floor, it
will ask you if you want that floor. You can say yes with the checkmark or no
with the x.

>>> Demolish [DEMO]

Use this button to destroy the parts of your mall. Just use your mouse and left
click on anything you want destroyed. You can find this in the build and
scenery menus too.

>>> Previous Floor [PREV]

This takes you to the previous floor.

>>> Other Information [OTHE]

Below the buttons are a few important things to keep track that you can find in
mall information: the date, your cash on hand, the floor you're on, the amount
of people currently in your mall, and the mall rating.

>>> Game Speed [SPEE]

At the bottom right corner, there are four small buttons that control how fast
time passes by in your game. The first button pauses the game so you can go
take a break if you want. Time automatically stops when you're building,
placing scenery or if you just started the game. The other three buttons
controls the speed of the game: slow, normal, or fast. If you feel you need to
get things going a little faster, just click on the setting you want. You'll
notice by the customers and stores going faster or slower.


------------------------
> Campaign Mode [CAM2] <
------------------------

In this mode, you have several challenges, layouts, and free play modes to
choose from. Only the challenges have objectives; you will be expected to pass
these objectives, which are listed in the description, in a set amount of time.
If you win, you get to keep running the mall. If you lose, you're immediately
booted to the main menu.

> Campaigns [CAM3]

There are ten campaigns to choose from. You can check out the descriptions and
some hints to beating them. Good luck beating some of these, because a few are
absolutely mind-numbing in terms of their objectives.

>> 28% Tax Bracket - Easy [BRAC]

Description: You are a grumpy entrepreneur and you have recently purchased a
former collegetown plaza at the University of Dirt. With the recent boost of
middle incomers to the area, you wish to turn the place into your own little
suburban empire, forcing these pesky kids out forever. Your first goal will be
to boot out any left-over scum and clean the place up. You must then find the
appropriate products to attract a total of 4,000 shoppers. Build to and
maintain a mall value of $35,000, with no more than $1,000 in loans. You'll be
all the rage with the crowd with an attractiveness of 800 and absolutely no
trash.

Objectives: Get 4,000 shoppers total; reach a mall value of $35,000; have at
most one loan; have no trash; reach an attractiveness rating of 800.

Strategy: When you first start this campaign, you'll immediately notice trash,
punks, crooks, and a lack of staff. Immediately hire janitors and rent-a-cops
and if you can, try to upgrade the cops to security guards. If you reach a
security level of 27 or more, then the punks will disperse. To make sure trash
stays off the floor, add some trash cans because there's only one in the whole
mall.

You'll notice that there's quite a lot of empty stores as well as multiple
arcades and tattoo parlors. Replace the extra stores with different ones,
because you'll need a lot of variety to attract the adult males and females.
Yes, there are no kids or elderly, just adults. I recommend adding a pharmacy,
a bank, clothing stores, fast food, and a dentist. Getting those 4,000
customers as well as the $35,000 mall value will take a lot of time, so be
patient and don't spend too much as you only have $5,000 in hand.

>>> Anchors Away! - Hard [ANCH]

Description: You run a good mall, but the anchor stores are complaining that
they want more customers. If you can't increase the number of shoppers and the
number of sales in the next ten years, the anchor stores will pull out!

You must bring a total of at least 5,000 shoppers and make at least 10,000
sales before 1960.

Objectives: Get 5,000 shoppers total; get 10,000 sales total; do so before
1/1/60.

Strategy: With 10 years on your side, this is actually not that hard to pull
off. One of the best ways to beat this challenge is with two simple words:
second floor. Rearranging the first floor to make room is too costly, so the
best way is to build up and get more stores. Try to research new stores to
make great combinations since sales are one of your goals. Remember to increase
your security and maintenance over time because a second floor will mean that
there's more mall to cover.

Attractiveness brings more customers and keeps them there, so try to decorate
the outside with grass, fountains, and lamps. Advertising is a must too, so
make sure your atrium has a lot of events and start advertising campaigns.
Focus on researching more promotions and upgrade your staff members. It may be
pricey, but once you get a lot of customers, you'll make a lot of profit in
the long run.

>>> Debt Free - Medium [DEBT]

Description: Your dream in life has always been to run a successful mall. After
years of hard work, all your time and dedication has finally paid off. You have
managed to build yourself a wonderful mall, the only problem is that in order
to build the mall, you had to borrow some money from people with a rather
"unique" repayment plan. Now, in order to keep your mall you must pay them back
all that you owe as well as an additional $2000 service fee. Also you must keep
your mall relatively trash-free and get an attractiveness of at least 300.
Hopefully this will be enough to encourage your associates to forget about you.

Objectives: Have no loans; have $2,000 in hand; have no trash; reach an
attractiveness rating of 300; do so before 1/1/92.

Strategy: With $1,000 in hand and 8 loans, you'll really have to learn to be
fiscal here. With your negative mall rating, that huge crowd of customers will
soon dwindle. Luckily, you come with all promotional events, so add at least
four to your atrium. Good ones like roller coasters and hay mazes will keep
them coming and are worth the cost. As for attractiveness, decorate around the
stairs, theater, and restaurant with inexpensive shrubbery and flowers. Tables
in front of the restaurant are a nice touch. 

It's best to pay off loans one at a time and do so when you reach about $1,400.
Every time you pay off a loan, your mall rating increases by an average of 4
points. Staff will also increase your mall rating. You will start with none,
so hire a good amount to keep the punks out. A security level of 28 will do.
Don't upgrade them, it's not worth the cost. In fact, research things rarely.
Focus on finding new store types (to fill in the two empty stores) and internet
marketing only.

>>> Discounters of the 3rd Kind - Medium [DISC]

Description: All of Earth's women have been abducted! Our only chance is Fe
Mall. One of the abductees left behind a map to this secret female shopping
paradise, in the hopes that men would find it and make the pilgrimage to Fe
Mall to mount a rescue attempt. Scientists calculate we'll need $20,000 -debt
free- to build a space and a force of 3,500 men for the breakout. You have 6
years to transform Fe Mall (full of all things female) into the ultimate
shopping Nirvana for men everywhere. Most men have become very wealthy with
no significant others to buy for. Be sure to clean up the trash and make it
really fancy too (1300).

Objectives: Have $20,000 in hand; have 3,500 shoppers total; do so before
1/1/97; reach an attractiveness rating of 1,300.

Strategy: All the customers are guys (duh), so you'll have to remove and
avoid establishing these stores: women apparel, junior apparel, lingerie,
perfume, jewelry, collectibles, candles, and any other store that gets poor
sales. If for some reason these stores actually get popular, go ahead and keep
them without question. Don't worry about removing the feminine floor patterns
and decoration; it doesn't faze your customers.

Fill in the empty stores with as many types as possible. I found the following
types very profitable: pizza, fast food, coffee and juice, sporting goods,
pharmacy, banks, toys, computer games, men's clothing, tailor, piercings, and
tattoo parlor. The hard part is making sure you have variety in your mall as
some stores will give poor sales since they're geared more toward women. If you
must use the same store twice, then put them at opposite ends of the mall for
convenience.

Maintenance is very costly for this mall, so research Duct Tape first. The
reduced cost will help as you'll eventually have to expand or you won't get
a steady stream of customers. Hire lots of janitors and security for there's
a lot of mall to cover here and punks will scare away the menfolk. As for
attractiveness, use the grassy space to place anything you wish. Not only do
you need 1,300 attractiveness, but raising that stat will bring in more
customers.

>>> End Of An Era - Easy [ENDO]

Description: It is the end of an era - the days of the small mall are coming to
an end. All of the community malls have fallen by the wayside in favor of the
gargantuan retail centers known as "mega-malls." Thanks to poor planning and
budget over-runs, a new small mall has been built in your community in the face
of stiff competition from larger and more popular malls. Make your mall
attractive to a rating of 300. Bring in 750 total shoppers. Most importantly,
bring the mall's value up to $10,000. You are the last ray of hope... good
luck!!!

Objectives: Reach an attractiveness rating of 300; have 750 shoppers total;
reach a mall value of $10,000; do so before 1/1/94.

Strategy: Despite the easy label, this one is actually pretty difficult
because you only have $5,000 to spend. Although the mall is set up and a lot
of stuff is already researched, keeping it affordable is the biggest problem
in this scenario. A good way to get attractiveness and mall value up is with
decorations. There isn't a lot of room inside, so you might have to settle for
decorating the outside. Be careful about putting new tiles though; floor is
very expensive if you install it all at once.

If you didn't attract about 375 shoppers by the end of the first year, you'll
have to step up with more stores or advertising. The only inexpensive place to
expand the mall is at the carpeted area. You can take down the wall and add a
few more stores if you want. Careful, adding stores can be costly, especially
the vertical and department ones.

If any store is getting a lot of revenue, jack up the sales cut a few bits to
increase profits. Of course, if you really need money desperately, the best
thing to do is to get some loans. Remember, more loans lower your mall rating
and you'll pay more interest, so don't get too crazy with it. 

>>> HUGE... tracts of land! - Hard [HUGE]

Description: Four long lost uncles all died recently, and you've inherited
their shopping centers! Using the inheritance money to buy up all the land in
town between the centers, you dream of building a massive mega-mell to make
even more money. Objectives: Build a clean and pleasing mall that will attract
and retain at least 800 customers at any given point in time, and do so by
2001, your hoped for retirement date. You will need a mall rating of at least
100 and attractiveness of 1000 to impress the townsfolk and $100,000 gross
sales. Do so without having any outstanding loans.

Objectives: Have an average of 800 shoppers; do so before 1/1/01, reach a mall
rating of 100; reach an attractiveness level of 1,000; have $100,000 in gross
sales.

Strategy: Despite the hard label it has, this one is pretty easy because it
starts you off with four malls already filled with stores and that will already
bring in in average of 90 customers, so cost won't be too much of an issue. You
have plenty of time to beat this one, so the goal is to use every bit of it!
Reaching 800 customers will be the only tricky thing here.

Begin by building a second floor for one mall. Start off slow here as spending
too much will set you back a lot. I recommend the mall with two department
stores to have the second floor first, because you can fill in two department
stores with more stores without too much cost. You can worry about walls later,
they won't fall off. As you get more profit, use it to build more second floors
for the malls. As for connecting them, don't bother, they're a lot farther than
you think. Instead, use some of the outside for grassy areas where you can put
decorations and an atrium. You can make the malls a little bigger though, so
you can house more stores.

And here's a little tip: when you get loaded with cash, consider connecting the
second floors with a bridge of sorts so your customers can get to stores much
quicker without taking elevators, escalators, and stairs. Moreover, put grass
one bit at a time. Putting it all at once is not only expensive, but requires
more maintenance and security.

Oh, and watch out for the UFOs. They will take a lot of your hard-earned
customers so try to get to 800 people before they arrive; they have abducted
almost half of my clients when I played! I highly suggest not putting elevators
as it makes it easy for UFOs to abduct people standing still.

>>> Milton's Garden - Hard [MILT]

Description: Ever since your uncle Milton died 5 years ago everyone in your
family has had their eye on his mall. He had it built over his private gardens
and it has been called the "Most Beautiful Mall in America" by Tymes magazine.
In his will he set up a contest to find the person best suited to running his
mall. Everyone gets the mall for one year, at the end of this year you must
keep an attractiveness rating of 900, have at least 1000 visit your mall, keep
the mall clean and not be in any sort of debt. So far no else has been able to
it, hopefully this will be your year.

Objectives: Do so before 1/1/96; reach an attractiveness rating of 900, have
1,000 shoppers total; have no trash; have no loans.

Strategy: This is by far, the hardest campaign of them all. Filling up those
stores will take about 1.8 grand, which would leave you with about $3,000 to
work with. Then you have the MIB and sanitation engineers to hire, which will
be needed since the first floor is covered with grass and requires attention.
You can't remove scenery to lower costs because you need to increase the
attractiveness rating. Moreover, it's risky to get a loan since it will lower
your mall rating and cause less customers to visit.

If you need more cash, try to create a new entrance. A new area will let
customers conveniently get to your stores faster. Speaking of stores, fill out
all of the empty stores immediately, because you need to attract as many
customers as possible. If things get desperate, you can go ahead and take out
one loan, but remember, you need to pay back the loan before the end of the
year or you lose. For attractiveness, simply put some tables or more plants.
You don't have to spend a lot here as the garden already boosts the rating.
Even then, I can't guarantee this will help you beat the campaign, so you'll
have to keep experimenting and hope that luck is on your side.

If you cheated on this one, I don't blame you.

>>> Partnership Problems - Medium [PART]

Description: Recent urban expansion has brought a new swarm of middle-class
people to this once thriving mining town. Two local businessmen have decided to
pool their collective resources to purchase and develop the land between their
respective businesses. Unable to agree on anything, and with the grand opening
fast approaching, these partners have decided to hire you to oversee their new
venture. You have been given two years to get things up and running. At the end
of these two years, you must have over $25,000 on hand, loan amounts under
$2,000, an attractiveness over 100, and 300 current shoppers.

Objectives: Do so before 1/1/04; have $25,000 in hand; have at most 2 loans;
reach an attractiveness rating of 100, have an average of 300 shoppers.

Strategy: There are two things you'll notice right away: the low mall rating
and the lack of staff. There is an explanation for both. This mall is currently
using 10 loans and as you know, getting more loans causes a lower rating. As
for staff, it has not been researched yet: no cops, no janitors, and no
greeters. The best thing I can suggest is to make with what you have. Research
janitor and rent-a-cop immediately and hire a reasonable amount. Remove eight
of the loans, because a bad rating will not get you a good amount of shoppers.

As for the stores, you'll notice that there's a few vacant ones. Variety is
needed for a good amount of shoppers, so here's what types of stores you can
put in them: security, phones, calendar, collectables, office supplies, lawn
and garden, appliances, sporting goods, makeup and bath goods, chocolate, watch
and jewelry repair, shoeshine and repair, shipping and mailboxes, travel shops,
film developing, educational, perfume, and tattooing parlor. If you feel that
you need more, go ahead, but don't go overboard. You need $25,000 to pass.

>>> Prison Break! - Hard [PRIS]

Description: Oh no! There has been a prison break near your mall! Mr. Mall
Tycoon, it is your job to rid the mall of the urban blight (in the forms of
crime and trash) and bring customers back to your mall. Make it attractive
too, as the criminal element have turned your mall into shambles, physically
and financially. To bring the finances back in-line, you'll need to bring
total customers up to 3500 and total sales up to 15000. You have 2 years to
get the job done. Hurry...I think I hear something coming from the walls!!!

Objectives: Have no crime, have no trash, have 3,500 shoppers total, have
15,000 sales total, do so before 1/1/75.

Strategy: As you start, you will notice that a zombie epidemic will break out
because of how dirty your mall is and they'll start to infect the customers.
This is sadly inevitable no matter how many sanitation engineers you hire.
Don't worry, once you finish cleaning up the mall, the zombies will disappear
and people will return. Keep your security level in the 30's so you can keep
the crooks and punks out. Less crime equals more customers.

Getting the 3,500 shoppers is a snap; it's the 15,000 sales that you'll have
to worry about. A couple of years isn't a lot of time, which is what makes
this one so hard, so you got to fill every one of those empty stores (heck,
the entire second floor is vacant) and let everybody know where they are
with a lot of advertising Don't be afraid to splurge on making your mall
very attractive to get more customers too. You got $50,000; use it!

There is room for an atrium outside. Research new promotions as soon as
possible to let your atrium attract more customers. Speaking of research,
try discovering new stores to fill some outlets. Be weary about putting
similar stores nearby each other or one of them will get too few sales.

>>> Rolling Hills - Medium [ROLL]

Description: You have been given the task of revitalizing a shopping center
located in the once lavish area of Rolling Hills.  This area used to be the
model of rich living, but over the last years it has really gone downhill and
they have quite a crime problem now.  The local shopkeepers want you to clean
up the area and create a mall that is accessible to the common folk.  They
believe that if you can create a mall that does over $12,000 in total sales
and keep an average of 100 current shoppers by 1996, then their mall will
truly be a success for everyone.

Objectives: Have no crime; have no trash; have $12,000 in gross sales; have an
average of 100 shoppers; do so before 1/1/96.

Strategy: One of the biggest complaints that you'll hear in this mall is that
the people cannot afford to pay and will just leave the store. You need to
make a lot of sales, so don't be afraid to adjust the sales cut a lot lower.
Remember: how much your stores will charge will depend on how high that sales
cut is. Moreover, if the rent you receive is strangely miniscule, you'll have
to lower those too. If a store does not have enough money for rent, then you
receive no payment.

Take note that the entire place is covered in grass and crime is an issue in
this scenario. Make sure security and maintenance are high. Don't make them
too high though, because your employees are fully upgraded and therefore more
expensive. If things get too hectic, delete the grass tiles. You'll still have
to spend money to get rid of it, but at least you have less ground to survey.

Of course, if you're going to get more people, you'll need more stores. Make
sure that these stores will sell by picking ones that might do well as
boutiques. Food stores usually do great by themselves, but there's also
security and shoes for a little variety. If you see any stores that are
getting very poor sales, replace them with a different store type.

> Free Plays [FRE2]

These free play settings are not very different compared to the real Free Play
mode. In this, you get to start in a different year if you please. The downside
is that you can't set the difficulty (you get $20,000 at the start) or set the
types of customers that you want. However, if you want the future technology
now, you'll have to make a few setbacks. You can play in the 1960's, 1970's,
1980's, 1990's, or 2000's.

> Free Play Mode [FRE3] <

If you want to build a mall without goals or boundaries to keep you down, well,
that's where free play mode comes in. Here, you receive an empty lot, starting
out in January 1, 1950 with either $5,000, $10,000, or $20,000 to start with,
depending on how hard you want it to be. You can also set up what kind of
customers you want by checking out the demographics menu (the button with the
man and woman on it). If you want to know how, check out the main menu section
