I am amazed by the depth and realism

Truly amazed by the realistic metrics this game has and also the depth of it. Very addictive and challenging.. kudos!

Best startup sim game

I have played many startup sims but this one is the best ngl. It really gives you that experience of running a startup.

Good work with the game devs

Class game, mechanics are spot on and it doesn't spam you with ads every two seconds. highly recommend

Waiting for the story mode

I am on the leaderboards already, interesting game to play. I am waiting for the Story Mode to go live asap.

Well done with the details

This game has details that no startup sim has on app store

Cracking little sim.

Played it non stop on my commute all week. actually makes you think rather than just tapping the screen

Quality game this is

Gets proper addictive once you figure out the stock market bit. Defo worth a download

Too good as a startup game

This game is really good. Realistic modes, real startup metrics and situations. Have been enjoying playing it.

I tried…

I’ve played tycoon and management games before and this one just had a very poor initial experience for me. I’m on an iPad and yet the banner ad at the bottom covers up the buttons on the quick help (and maybe other things?) Also, I don’t have the best eyesight in the world but it’s not the worst either and felt the font text was too small regardless of lighting setting , and it’s distracting to try reading with a ticker tape ad going along the bottom. I can’t tell if the icons actually have labels or not because of the ad banner. I tried clicking on the Sam guy to try to figure out what to do next and got two long ads and then the leaderboard… one of the ads was one of those zombie ads where people shame and physically assault a bad player “because it’s supposed to be funny”? Meanwhile I’m still trying to figure out how to play the game but I can’t tell what I can and can’t see, it’s hard to read what I can see and I’m not sure what icons I touch might send me on to another ad. I have no problem paying to remove ads but they shouldn’t interfere with me trying to understand the game. I might check back a few months down the road but as of right now, it’s a bounce for me.

Response from developer

Hey Founder! First of all, thank you so much for the detailed and honest feedback. You were absolutely right about the iPad experience - it wasn't up to standard. We're excited to tell you that in our brand-new v2.2 update, we completely rebuilt the tablet layout! The banner ad overlap bug is fixed, fonts and UI elements now dynamically scale to be much larger and readable on iPads, and we've introduced a new "Fairytale Mode" (Easy Mode) to make learning the ropes much less punishing. We'd love for you to give the new update a try whenever you're ready, but either way, we really appreciate you helping us spot these issues!

In love with the complexity

While many players might find the game very intimidating n complex i found it very addictive tbh. Because running a startup is complex.. duhh.

Good Game Potential

Reactive developers replied when I reported bugs to them on Socials.

Game has great potential and is incredibly difficult. With a few hours play I’m yet to achieve sustainable profit!

Closest to actually running a startup

I am fond of such games but app store lacked a real startup game. This gets closest to running a real startup virtually

Game is good but I keep randomly game over

I’ve had 5 saves now, plenty of money in the bank and then randomly will just say it’s game over with no reason as to why or anything???????

Dev support

I was in touch with the developer regarding some bug reports and they were very supportive and took my suggestions seriously. Good support.

love the concept

loved the concept.. looking forward to more and more updates

Best business strategy game you will find on os

The game is one of a kind find for os yes you have a-lot of business games out there but if you are looking for something in-depth and allows you to play at your own pace this is it. The developer is amazing always urging for feedback and is just releasing his first update to the game where he asked for any feedback which could be given to improve the game. The new update brings a whole new wealth of depth into the true running of a start up and i for one am very excited to play this new update.

Too Difficult

After the v.2 update the game is really tough and impossible to be successful and launch ipo..Its so buggy and lagging sometimes plus filled with way too many unskippable Ads..Overall a good game and cool concept but will be lost in ads and not able to win will cost them

Response from developer

Hey Founder, thanks for the honest feedback! We heard you loud and clear. In our brand new Version 2.0.2 update, we’ve drastically reduced the frequency of ads so they won't interrupt you, given everyone $150k more starting cash to make the early game much easier, and squashed the bugs causing lag. Please update and give it another try - we think you'll love it!

Really helpful game for fresher who want to learn about business & brand building

Very helpful game for all the new learner’s. Everyone should definitely try it

Response from developer

Hey Founder! We are glad that you liked this game.

Best startup game

Very realistic, everyone should have it installed in their phones

Response from developer

Hey Founder! We are glad that you liked this game.

Great game

Great game but still a lot of bugs. I hire people and then after a few weeks it shows that I have 0 people hired. Also the ads are lagging so much and crashing the game. Other than that I love the new stuff added to the update but still has bugs
