Invest Sim is the most complete financial simulation game on the App Store — trade stocks, launch businesses, take them public, and climb from nothing to a world-shaping tycoon. Realistic markets, deep mechanics, endless paths to wealth.

DYNAMIC MARKETS & REAL FUNDAMENTALS

### 3/5 — Good game

*2026-08-02*

So I love this game but it’s so not optimized, the game crashes when I go over a billion it’s glitchy and you can’t use a week only day but it’s not working as supported , I’m ok to support team but it’s need work

**Developer response:** Hi Josh, thank you so much for your feedback. Could you please clarify some of the bugs that you encountered via email at contact@luvielgames.com? Once I get some clarification, I can get to fixing it for the next updates.

### 5/5 — AMAZING GAME

*2026-07-21*

Game is fire businesses can definitely be expanded like maybe an airlines or a airplane manufacture and also the game crashes at a certain profit part. Also I wish we could bulk expand on some of the businesses like the casino, and I can’t inject cash into the hedge fund for a stake.

**Developer response:** Hi, thank you so much for your feedback. I will consider all your feedback for future updates!

### 5/5 — love this game but one thing needs fix

*2026-06-29*

absolutely love this game, im not one to write reviews but this game scratches the business sim spot so well for me. the only thing i would kindly suggest is making the numbers lesser.

exp. 

game: $1,100,000,000

perferably: $1.1B

**Developer response:** Hi thank you so much for this review and for enjoying the game. I will be rolling that change into the next update. When it's out there will be a toggle for it in the settings.

### 4/5 — Fix user interface for crime roles

*2026-06-28*

Game is overall very good but I do have one large complaint. The crime page is very difficult to navigate and there is no clear way to inject capital into your illegal businesses. That expansion costs $8, it should have the option to have me inject capital like every other business. Please fix.

### 5/5 — Extreme potential but some bugs

*2026-06-15*

The game is great, i can tell how detailed it is, but for the intelligence agency it only lists out a couple of companies instead of all of them. I also think shares sizes listed in ipos should vary more than 10 million so there isn’t stock prices of 70,000. It would provide a more realistic experience.

**Developer response:** Hi, thank you for playing the game and for leaving feedback. This change will be rolled out with the. next update. Thank you!

### 5/5 — Good but has a bug

*2026-06-11*

Good game . But every since the new update my game keeps crashing. And I don’t wanna lose everything by re downloading it .

**Developer response:** Hi thank you for playing my game. Could you please give me more information. Please reach out at contact@luvielgames.com. Thank you!

### 4/5 — BUSINESS SELL BUTTON

*2026-06-05*

The game is great, i can tell how detailed it is, but there is no sell button for owning a business. You have to stay with the business until eventually the life ends.

**Developer response:** Hi, thank you for playing the game and for leaving feedback. This change will be rolled out with the. next update. Thank you!

### 4/5 — Game mechanics

*2026-06-02*

I love the game it’s actually my favorite game to play to pass the time, however the frustrating part is everytime it seems you make a certain amount of money like the multi triollions the game begins to crash, it’s honestly very aggravating I’ve made 3 characters and the more I play the more money I make with each character can you guys please fix the crashes

**Developer response:** Hi, thank you for playin my game and for providing feedback. That issue is one of the big ones that I am looking into. Will look to have a fix for it within the next two updates. Thank you!

### 5/5 — Love the game

*2026-05-27*

I like the game and while the expansions are a starting to feel like the same businesses in different fonts I don’t really mind as long as I’m liking the game. The only thing I ask for is to have an option of making my character immortal and not die at 100. Before the update it was super fun to just play till I wanted to reset and let me max all the expansions I wanted. Please add this feature

**Developer response:** Hi, thank you so much for enjoying the game and the feedback. To address your first comment, the new businesses that we create from now on will definitely have different functionalities as well as the powers that they will have. Additionally, I already have plans to improve on  / rework some of the businesses in the game either to update difficulty on vary the gameplay. I also hear you on the immortal part. Initially, the plan was always to have an immortal character, however for realism and due to lag caused by large net worths and multiple businesses, I thought that a limited lifespan would be more useful. However, I now plan on reintroducing immortality as soon as I am able to make the game more efficient and not crash when net worths get too large. Thanks again and always feel free to reach out with further feedback!

### 2/5 — Greed

*2026-05-22*

I have played this game for a while now and have closely observed how greedy and selfish this developer is. You said you would focus on current expansions and stop charging for every single expansion pack. But you just added another one for another $7.99. I love this game but is hard to keep playing when you lie to users and keep charging a pretty penny for expansions

**Developer response:** Hi, I completely understand where you are coming from. First, I thank you for playing my game and am really sorry that it came out this way. This latest update was a planned update that I already had coded out prior to me making that statement. My original idea for the game was an intersection or three closely related sections being the economy, politics, and crime. I can assure you now that I have no plans / existing code that will introduce another paid expansion. Every update for the foreseeable future will only add to the existing expansions in the game as well as other aspects not tied to the expansions. Again thank you for playing my game as well as providing feedback. I will ensure that it’s addressed.
