Lemonade Stand is a simple tycoon style game. You are in charge of running your own stand where you juggle pricing, recipe, advertising, and amount of lemonade to make each day.

You have 30 days to see how much money you can make, but keep an eye on the weather forecast - a thunderstorm blowing in could ruin an entire day but a heat wave could send your sales soaring!

Whether you played the original or are trying it for the first time, youll find this simple & fun economic simulation easy to pick up but hard to put down!

- "classic graphics" option for the complete old school, low-res experience

- automatic save & resume if you need to quit or get a call
- global high scores with Game Center support, see how you stack up against lemonade stands down the block or across the world!
- A great intro to basic business economics.

Pros and cons of Lemonade Stand app for iPhone and iPad

Lemonade Stand app good for

Coming fromthe first one, this is what it was like on the Apple II. Graphics are very cute and the sound is ripped right out of the game. The tracks your high score, but only the top 4. Would have been nice if it tracked 10 or something. Also you could even add different modes other than 30 days, like 10, unlimited, or custom. All in all this game is great to pass the time.

Having to play the original, this is excellent! Love the original music. Can we have a remake of the Oregon Trail?

this is a really good game and i played it as a kid but i think it should show the customers buying the lemonade other than that the game is perfect definitely worth the 1$

Fun game, I wish there was more too it tho, I cant beat my own high score now tho LOL. Anyone managed to get over $75.05 yet?

Made it to $185.98 after only 3 tries. The key is to gamble on the road crews. Ten minutes of fun for 99 cents

Love it and the old school graphics. Brings me back to my childhood. Fun to play on the road when youve got 10 mins to spare. Just wish I could listen to my own music while playing too.

Some bad moments

I thought I was going to play a game that required a bit of thinking and had a point. The graphics are okay but the game lasts 5 minutes and then you get bored of it.

didnt really see the fun in this game at all. I kept waiting for it to get entertaining.. and it never did.

This is my second review. This is just a rip off,a lot was promised with the updates but u have been giving there silly updates.I am going to complain to apple.

No real graphical interface. One screen to input parameters for the lemonade for a certain day and once you choose this you get a table giving the results of the day. You dont see the people buying the lemonade or their reactions seeing the lemonade. Not impressive

Only good if you are already dead! Even then death might hate this 2!

Ok - so its like the original all right... Very very basic. Worth a buck? Hmmmmmmm
