Gameplay

Play as Jane, a maiden who needs to find a husband before the season ends. You need to serve people and play your part to impress.
In this gameplay, you hand over items to servants so they can deliver them to the rest of the manor. The gameplay was similar to other GameHouse games with serving people on time, it just depends on what kind of storyline you like.
I really enjoy time management games so I had fun playing this, but it didn’t stand out from the other games GameHouse has.
Graphics

The graphics were nothing special to look at and looked like all the other games. However, they run well and didn’t lag at any point.
Music & Sounds
The audio was very old-fashioned, fitting into the theme of old money and having servants. It was done well and added to the gameplay!
Controls

To take orders, tap on the item and then tap on the servant to give it to them. You have to make sure to keep on track of all orders otherwise the servants run out of patience. I love time management games so this wasn’t a problem for me but it’s good there were easy controls to do this with!

The Verdict

I’m always going to be impressed if the game we’re reviewing is a time management game, however, this gameplay wasn’t different from any other GameHouse games. They seem to enjoy releasing the same game with different storylines to suck people into subscribing. It’s not for me.
