Product Description:
Think fun, sun, sand and romance and you've captured the essence of Virtual Resort: Spring Break™.

Set on a chain of exotic tropical islands, Spring Break players face the challenge of creating the most successful (and wildly fun!) vacation experience. Starting with an undeveloped island, your job is to build an all-inclusive resort featuring hotels, bars, nightclubs, restaurants, water sports, beach activities, and more. Once developed, set the prices, then kick back and watch all of your guests' hedonistic holiday fun.

Every scenario in Spring Break is based on a different island. Each of the islands feature different types of guests, unique hazards, various attractions, and more. As the Spring Break kingpin, you reap all the joys and headaches of running a typical vacation resort, from raging romances and unruly drunken guests to dreadful food poisoning and deadly shark attacks.

In addition to meeting the needs of your partying guests from sunrise to sunset, each island also has its own set of objectives, which you must achieve to produce a successful, thriving resort. For example, one island objective might require you to focus on developing water sports activities such as jet skiing or snorkeling; another may require you to build the ultimate nightclub experience with a bass-pounding DJ. If you manage to accomplish the scenario goals, you will unlock additional islands and game features.

Spring Break combines the strategic planning and management features of a tycoon-style game with the hilarious people-watching intrigue of successful sim games. Mix in plenty of sun-soaked fun and a shot of debauchery and the result is the ultimate spring break beach party.
