  • Uh… 10

    A Rare Masterpiece! Sonny and Capcorn wish they had games this elite. All jokes aside, after two full play throughs, I can say that I thoroughly enjoy this little game. It’s so fun trying to motivate and train your staff and keep the flow humming. Closer to the end when you start getting totals over 100 in each category is so satisfying knowing that you could barely clear 20 in the beginning. Just enough complexity to challenge you but not so much that it will turn you off. Great game start to finish. A love letter to retro gaming and games in general. Hat’s off!

  • Couldn’t Put it Down

    This doesn’t happen often, but I played this game over about 6-8 hours straight to advance through the 20 year cycle. By about year 16, I was loaded with money, but that came after a few grueling years of low quality-game output and struggling to meet paydays. With vigilance, you are eventually able to afford all-star developers, pay big bucks to develop good games, and make a pile of money to immediately reinvest toward developing on more expensive videogame systems.

  • A++++ Game 🤩 and Ideas 💡

    we need more games like this what if! you had a basement for the hackers and hardware engineers? AND WHAT IF! you had the ability to choose a priority for the game, like sound or creativity? AND WHAT IFFFF! you could change the avatar of the boss when you first start the game? AND AND WHAT IF! you could change the outfits they wore to office, and they would only change when they ran out of energy? AND AND AND WHAT IF! you could have a display case you could go to to see your trophies for each game, and you could customize the display case? AND AND AND- ok i’m done :D

  • Excellent

    The fun graphics, catchy music, and the pick-up-and-play ease of this game makes it so much fun. It has some challenge to be sure, balancing the numbers employ ease and their abilities, making wise use of your money, discovering and perfecting all of the different game types and genres, etc. but it is also simple enough that anyone could pick this up and have a great time playing for hours. I find myself getting lost in this game and just completely mesmerized by how much fun it is. Simply put, I love it and can’t get enough.

  • Amazing Game!

    It’s practically flawless and has a lot to do for a seeming small game. There are many different ways to ultimately succeed in this game and it is not an easy task on your first run. You have to figure out what works and what doesn’t for game combinations and use contracts early on. And then when you make profits you should work on hiring people to make better games instead of just leveling up. I recommend anyone that reads this to try out the game and give it a go. You’d be surprised how fun it will be.

  • Addicted, aware, but not regretting

    Honest this game is so great for the genre it is, one of those games that make you wish it was never ending. Different routes you can go for reply value, fun character names, limited but grind-able advancement, and just a tinge of RNjesus that get under your skin at times without making you curse the age in which you were born. Basically I got it one day for fun, proceeded to play it deep untill the next morning despite having priorities and knowing this game had a save feature… this is that kind of game lol.

  • Amazing Game BUT….. it could be BETTER

    All around amazing game I do however think that it could use some extra touches like…
    1. Add equipment including, chairs, PCs, desks, and other stuff like that and make them have upgradable stats that increase the performance of your employees (individual or not) BUT still keep the cosmetic stuff.
    2. Add a larger variety of characters, or add like a little ticket thing that you can buy (not with real money) that can allow you to customize the employee of choice.
    3. Add gear for employees that does things like, increase the chance of improvement success but decrease’s max power, increase one stat significantly but tragically decrease another, And other stuff similar. other than that the game is amazingly flawless and very enjoyable and I would be absolutely grateful if even one of these game mechanics are added to the game. And if the developers actually read this thank you for at least taking the time to read it and have a amazing day 👍

  • Could be a little better

    This game is good, but with minor adjustments, it could be so much better. For example, every time I’m about to release my best game ever, there’s a blackout or an equipment failure. It’s like the game is set up to make sure you can’t release a perfect game. Maybe if the traveling salesmen would offer something to prevent this, that would be one solution. Or even the option to buy like a back up generator or a server. You can’t tell me Sony and Microsoft don’t have both of those in their offices…
    Other than that, the game is amazing.

  • Addicting until it’s not

    This game has some really interesting mechanics that, at least at first, make it really exciting to play. Eventually, though, you get to a point where you’re just cranking out games without worrying about money and consistently getting in the hall of fame / #1 selling game for that week (it took me about two days to get to that point, but I was also playing quite a bit so it may vary). After that, there’s not much incentive to keep playing other than getting the grand prize and upgrading your employees (which also doesn’t take too much longer). I would recommend this game, but just be aware that it won’t last forever :)

  • 5 Star Relationship

    This game is fun. I give it 5 stars, it has kept me entertained for awhile. Just like every game I will eventually grow bored of the game and wonder why I still have it in the “games” folder… week after week it will sit there and week after week I will look at it and say “that was a fun game, I won’t delete it because I’ll probably play it again at some point”.. Then it will sit in my “games” folder long enough where I eventually delete it. Months or years later I will be bored once again looking for new games and download it once more. It’s a vicious cycle, but it seems to happen more often than not with many different good games. It’s a toxic relationship with good memories - Love it, hate it, leave it, and eventually come back to it and do it all over… 5 stars ⭐️
