City Game Studio has held my attention for longer than the alternative Game Tycoon games I've played. While it's not a large market this is the entry I enjoy the most. You start out as a developer out of their home at the dawn of the gaming industry and work to release games and unlock new genres. Something easy to miss in this game is that much of it can be as manually micromanaged or as automated as you prefer - (hire a HR head if you don't want to assign people vacations for example) and even more with the imminent release of the studio head option to help further automate where you wish. These types of things come handy when you becoming a sprawling gaming empire like Actvision or EA, or when combined with your own hardware you can be the size of a Nintendo or a Sony. I love stories I create around my games of the year and around the growing sales trends for certain franchises. It's fun to look back and see what your company that started in a garage and became as large as Nintendo had accomplished in the industry. A general tip for anyone starting out who is not achieving high game release scores- you want to maximize the points allocated to each of the 3 stages of game development (where you pick features included). It can be tricky early on as no engine will have enough features to fill up all the slots but once you are able to create your own engine use it and then select game platforms that correspond to the number of features available to use. I would love more role-playing elements, but at it's heart this is a tycoon game and it delivers in what is promises to be. While I have over 100+ hours played I don't generally write reviews. This is a small developer that pushes out seemingly weekly updates every year. He listens and genuinely changes the game based on feedback. When we have other developers who's initial reaction is - no, your wrong and here is why the game is great, it's been so refreshing to know that we're heard regardless of the suggestions made here in Steam or if they are on the discord server. I'm happy with where the game has grown too but thrilled that the game continues to updated and feedback actively sought. We get good games when developers have enough humility to listen. Thanks!

I love this game!! It’s my new favourite tycoon. I love how much it expands on game dev tycoons, there’s a lot of room for replayability. I’ve done a few playthroughs on different difficulties and had a blast each time. Theres still new stuff being added all the time too. This is already a great tycoon but I feel like it’s only getting better. Also, it runs amazing on steam deck.

The game is simple and fun. Could it be better? Yes. Did I end up spending one more hour, one more hour, one more hour.. yes, yes I did.
