Business and play: together at last!

Career World, Nov-Dec, 2004

Is being an entrepreneur fun? It is when you're playing Disney's Hot Shot Business online game. The game gives players a realistic and challenging taste of what it takes to start and run a business.

The game welcomes players to Opportunity City, where animated teens Kate and Jack help players recognize and act on business opportunities to meet the needs of the citizens. Players can take out loans or put up their own money to open a skateboard factory, a pet spa, a landscaping business, or a comic-book shop.

The game's storyline has been enhanced with new financing options and a multiplayer environment that allows several players to compete online.

Although Hot Shot Business was developed for kids ages 9 through 12, the game is sophisticated and fun enough to be enjoyed by teens or adults. Go ahead, hot shot! Try your hand at running a business at HotShotBusiness.com.
