Jones in the Fast Lane

PC
Genre:  Strategy    |     Year: 1992    |     Publisher: Sierra On-Line, Inc.     |     Developer: Sierra On-Line
Game Review (written by Bobsyouruncle) Added on: 09/17/2006
I remember staying at my cousin’s house long ago and he had Jones in the Fast Lane. I was instantly addicted. We got up in the morning play all day and all night. Aunty had to beg us to get off the computer long enough to come eat dinner. When I left my cousin’s house I begged Mom and dad to buy me a computer, for educational reasons, of course, "just so I could play this game".
Man does this bring back memories. I loaded it on my PC yesterday and like 15 years ago played Jones all day and all night. Now it’s just my wife pleading for me to get off the damn PC.

Jones in the Fast lane is the kind of game that is so addicting, it’s so simple yet always seems to have something new every time you play in. Stock market crashes, inflation, you name it. Just last time I played, I got robbed. I forgot you could get robbed. Now all I have to do is phone my cousin and let him now about this sight. He'll

be as excited as I am, I'm sure. He and I always talk about the old games we used to play and now I have found them. Out of all the sierra games they put out during this era Jones in the Fast lane has to be the best. They made a lot of good games but this has to be the most addicting game.

Thanks to this site I see a renewed old game computer junkie in my future. Jones in the Fast Lane will provide many, many hours of endless entertainment that will bring many surprises along the way. You can play with friends or without. You can also change life paths to what you would like to achieve. Want to be a career student and work as a clerk at Monlith Burger? You can in this game. Want to own tons of material possessions but not work in a glamorous job? You can do that too, it may just take you awhile. All you need to do is set your goals and try to achieve them as quick as possible. First one to the finish line wins.

I cant believe this game is still around! My sisters and I used to play it all day everyday for months. I remember one time when I was at the top of my game and had gotten and done everything and then wild willy robbed me! I have never sworn so much in my life! It really is addictive, and loads of fun. You must give it a try.

I loved this game growing up. While the graphics are old, the game still remains a family favourite!

I'm so excited to find this site! I was finally going to get rid of my good old 486 computer and was all nostalgic, missing all of those great games from back in the day. Jones was one of my favorite games. I remember playing for hours on end with my brothers. I can't wait to play it again!

This game is great. It has been so long since I played Jones in the Fast lane. It is a very easy game to win and let’s face it, once you have the top job in the factory you pretty much win the game from there but I still love it!

What a great game! First played this on a 386 10 years ago with my brother. We still even today drop the XBOX 360 pad in favour of a game on Jones! I'm always the first to get the best job at the factory. If only they made a Jones 2!

It motivates you to keep going and be somebody someday. For a Dos game its pretty cool. A lesson for all.

I was first introduced to Jones in the Fast Lane by a friend of mine. I have played endless hours of this game. It is the sort of game that you can only master by taking risks and learning from your mistakes. It's about creating balance in your life. For example, you need to work to get money, you need money to eat, you need an education to get a job. The better your education, the better your job and salary. This game has it all!
