• Get drunk and achieve the maximum popularity! • Search for coins on the streets, wash cars, get into street fights, rob strangers and banks! • Open your office or found your own startup! • Make the most money in the shortest time! Compete with your friends! Almost every event in this game happens randomly. Every move equals one day. Every day your health, happiness and satiety decrease. If your health, happiness or satiety will drop to zero, you have 7 days to improve the situation, otherwise you will die. Every year you will celebrate your birthday and get presents. Every day you have a chance to find empty bottles and then sell them. Sooner or later you will die from old age. To avoid that, you can buy an immortality pill. Note that it DOES NOT protect you from dying from hunger, sickness, unhappiness or poverty.

Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Hobo Simulator sells 6 one-off in-app purchases and Rich Man Business Simulator sells 15 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Rich Man Business Simulator holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 2.8K and 1.1K respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 82% of Hobo Simulator's written reviews are positive against 62% of Rich Man Business Simulator's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Hobo Simulator ships an update monthly, Rich Man Business Simulator every 2 weeks. Both last shipped on October 29, 2026.
