I finally finished Plant Tycoon! It took me forever to find the 4th and final Magic Plant. I think this has got to be a record in futility!

LOL that's an epic amount of time. The game was not really designed for you to earn a half million dollars during one game. I'm glad it is able to display that amount correctly. Hmm looks like there might even be room for one more digit. Who's going to find out for me? Randy?

Well, considering I'm already half way there I guess I could pull out those expensive plants (highest value I ever saw was $866) and breed and sell like crazy. I probably wouldn't take that long to get to 1M$.

Congrats! Well, there is no high score post or whatever. So no point competing with others. Just enjoy urself.

Is this ur first game? If so, rest assure that it'd be faster the 2nd time and then after.

There are several programs that will take a screenshot of any screen on your PDA, GeeLew. Are you on a Pocket PC or a Palm?

Okay, drum roll please! I have finally reached the 1 Million dollar mark as Arthur requested and I'm pleased to announce that the program was able to handle that amount (see the screenshot attached).

Now that I have cleared that hurdle now I can restart the game on a different difficulty.

MOST impressive, Randy. We are going to print out that screenshot and frame it. Thanks for testing that 7th digit by the way. You have been officially granted the title of Plant Tycoon Expert here on the forums!

<loud applause>

Congrats on completing Fish Tycoon! I would have by now if it wasn't for my previous inexperience with handhelds, and my incessant need to tinker with anything and everything technological that I can lay my hands on As for "cross-breeding" plants, think more along the lines of "cross-pollination" Yep, you just drag the pollen from one plant, to the one you want to cross it with. Just in case, I'll mention that the little icon for pollen is in the lower-right of the main greenhouse screen, between the seed icon, and the price icon ^_^ Tap and drag the pollen from that button directly to the second plant I hope your luck with the seedlings is a good as your luck with the fish! ^_^ Have fun!

SEEDS PLANTED: 861
PLANTS SOLD 817
MONEY EARNED: 56205
AVERAGE PRICE/PLANT: 68
NEW BREEDS FOUND: 161
MAGIC PLANTS FOUND: 4 OF 4

this was played on normal mode (palm pilot zire 72).

**this game is soooo addicting... i even take my battery charger every where i go..(yes, including work)..

it's been real fun, and i can't wait to see what ldw has next for us...thanks so much..

It takes a bit of thought to find the magic plants. I realized that it was pretty much grouped by types. The last one was tough but i realized i hadn't bred the living daylights out of the cactus plants yet and Poof! there was magic plant #4! Now I am working on Fish Tycoon, i like these games! Thanks
