Das unterbricht nicht nur dem Spielfluss, sondern vermasselt einen den kompletten Spielspaß. ### 4/5 — Dope *2023-08-15* Pretty fun game. yes it has ads which is fine but I like the fact that when they show an ad, you get rewarded over time for the ad you watch(i wish it was every 3 instead of 5 tho). when i first got it i played for a lot of hours but in my opinion, over time it gets less fun because you kinda just have to sit there to wait for more points to upgrade. but it’s still fun if u have patience. It would be better if i could play my music from spotify while i’m playing tho, idk if that’s a spotify issue or something. Good game, boutta play it again right now! **Developer response:** Thanks for your review! I’ll fix the bug with listening your own music in the future ### 5/5 — Sehr geil gemacht! *2023-08-09* Das Spiel ist wirklich gut durchdacht und man hat sehr viele Möglichkeiten. Jedoch hängt es sich bei mir regelmäßig auf bei der Laptoperstellung und die Produktionslinie der Desktop PC‘s kann ich erst gar nicht kaufen. Dennoch 5-Sterne, da das Spiel erst ein paar Tage draußen ist und ich denke das diese Kinderkrankheiten noch behoben werden. **Developer response:** Vielen Dank für Ihr Feedback! ### 5/5 — PC Tycoon *2023-08-05* Игра топ, где же 2 часть? Месяц жду) **Developer response:** Спасибо за отзыв! Вторая часть уже доступна! ## Frequently asked questions about PC Tycoon ### What is PC Tycoon about?
