Sept. 2024

Like this game a lot. Wish the dev kept supporting it because lots of simple things could be improved on that would make this a real gem. Maybe RoI2 will be.

Sept. 2024

Decent game a lot to learn, not sure if its worth the original $40 NZD but on special for $6 so totally worth! I look forward to seeing the second instalment of the game.

Aug. 2024

I like this game in small doses. I probably play it for a few hours every now and again. Its good but not exceptional. If you can get it on sale then great, try it.

July 2024

I'm really enjoying this game. It's got easy menus and clean graphics. It makes a complex system pretty easy to understand. It has a LOT of difficulty options to make the simulation easier, harder, or just different. At the end of the day it's another OpenTTD clone but as far as I can tell, it's the best one. After 10 more hours, I'm just not reaching the success I want in the game. It's very easy to do things that aren't very profitable, spread my strategy too thin, and I just don't know how to expand without losses. This is a challenging game!

April 2024

"Rise of Industry" is my go-to game for strategy and management fun. I can play it for hours without getting bored. I like how it makes me think and plan my moves. Even though sometimes I wish there were more things to do, overall it's a great game. It keeps me hooked and wanting to come back for more. If you enjoy games that make you think and keep you entertained, ROI is definitely worth checking out.
