Games that revolve around being a badass man (or woman) of business are not entirely unknown in the industry. One of the most famous, Monopoly, has been in existence since the Great Depression era, where people realized that bankrupting their friends made for a fine social event indeed. As the medium of gaming evolved from the tabletop to the desktop, the quest for success in the make believe business world came with it. There have been electronic Monopoly games, but also a number of others such as SimTower, SimCity, Railroad Tycoon, and more where the object is to keep yourself and your fictional enterprise out of the red.

Striding in amongst these well recognized names is a game that is experiencing its first incarnation in the virtual realm. The name of the game is iNetMania, a digital version of the popular ServerMania board game, and it has been released for the iPhone and iPod Touch. The game itself plays similar to ServerMania, which has a definite Monopoly style flair about it. This familiar format thankfully makes the game one that is easily picked up. Once the game boots up you are initially treated to the handsome looking logo screen before you jump right into the heart of the matter: the options screen.

 First and foremost is the Rules screen, which teaches you the ins and outs of iNetMania in both text and pictures. The object is simple: each player is the owner of a fictional website and you must earn more money and attract more visitors than the other guy. It sounds simple in theory, but the accomplishment of the goal is actually a lot trickier as you can see from the rules. As you move around the board you will land on various squares, each of which have a specific effect, be they positive or negative.
