PIZZA TYCOON

PIZZA TYCOON (MicroProse, CD-ROM for PC, $47.95) It's a dog-eat-pizza world in this silly, sly simulation game, where aspiring restau- rateurs learn that it takes more than good food to cook up a successful enterprise: It takes the right location, proper staffing, social connections -- even cooperation with underworld thugs. Sure, the broad, colorful graphics may lull you into believing it'll be easy, but clever tidbits (such as a Madrid real estate agent named Dali Surreal Estate) and detailed maps and business data prove there are sophis- ticated minds behind this game. And even if you don't win, the disc comes with a booklet of 14 pizza recipes. Yum. B+
