Lucy checks out a time-management game with just a tad less magic than Mary Poppins…

The developers have clearly had this feedback as theyve tried to rectify it in this second incarnation.

Nanny Mania 2: Goes To Hollywoodstars our favourite nanny, Emma.

With her posh English accent and sense of fun, shes a spiffing character, dont you know?

As youd expect, the game starts off slow for those whove never played a game like this before.

However, withNanny Mania, you have even less to do than most time management games.

All the while mummy and daddy are wandering aimlessly around the house and dont even attempt to help you.

And to add insult to injury as they wander, theyre making even more mess!

Each one will help make Emmas job that little bit easier.

And remember, finish each level within a certain time and youll earn a Gold Star!

Nanny Mania 2is nothing special.

Its better than the first one as it presents more of a challenge and lasts longer.

However, it seemed to last too long.

Each level just seems to give you more mess to tidy up without offering anything revolutionary.

Still, the graphics and sound are good and the storyline is solid.

Its just the game play doesnt really offer anything different or enthralling.
