Smooth Operators: Call Center Chaos is very unique title on the XBLIG service where you build and control operations for a call center. The graphics are all done with pixels and they certainly pack a lot of charm. You have access to buildings for operations, service, office, food, restrooms and recreation. These can be placed horizontally or vertically, and you can construct some pretty massive 40-floor buildings. The game introduces new elements slowly, unlocking a new item at the beginning of each workday. Eventually in addition to your standard employees, you'll be able to hire managers, janitors and IT personnel. If it sounds complicated, don't worry as the game makes it all super simple.
The controls are well mapped and I never once had an issue with placing something where I wanted it to go. You have the ability to slow-down/speed-up time with the left bumper. Once you have everything laid down and your employees hired you can crank the speed up to 5x and watch everything at work. As a fan of simulation games (especially SimCity!) I absolutely adore Smooth Operators. There's really not much else like it on the 360 and I highly recommend it to gamers who dig simulation style games. Even though you can't get it for XBLIG, the game was also released for the iOS and PC so if your into simulation style games you might want to give it a look.
Final Verdict: Smooth Operators isn't the deepest sim title out there, but it provides more than enough to entertain genre fans for hours!
