Excellent game. To the developers, overall excellent game. I love the concept and all the features. It’s really an overall great game. I never write reviews, but when I do, it’s because I genuinely like the game and can see myself playing it for a long time. With that being said, I have noticed a bug in the system. When I go to start a new game and import hints, I’ve noticed that not all the hints from the previous game/s load in. In addition to this, when starting a game with imported hints, I go to develop a game and pick the platform. The first two available (G64 and PC) have a glitch where it normally shows you the different topics for the games as well as how each topic works with that system. On my screen, for every topic it shows just the action logo with two plus signs instead of showing the respective topics and how well they do. If I could rate this game a 4.5 I would since it’s a minor bug. Thank you for all your hard work and I’m excited to see where this game goes!

Ridiculously Fun. Pushed all the buttons of this millennial gamer’s heart. I grew up with the advent of games (I was born the same year Super Mario Bros was), and this was not only a blast from the past and a way to honor the journey we have taken with video games the past 35 years, it was a legitimately fun game all on its own. The strategy of having to choose which is the best combination of elements to focus on while crafting your game is elegant. It’s easy to play, but challenging in HOW you choose to play. Great game. I couldn’t put it down until I beat it with a AAA game, 1st booth at G3, and 500M+. Now I don’t know what I’m going to do. Sequel? One perhaps for filmmaking? Or some other topic that follows the same format? I adore this game.

Worth the work. Game consistently crashes on launch after purchase, and requires some tampering with your phone settings in order to get it working. The fix isn’t complicated, but it would be nice if the publishers put a warning or made the fix more obvious. As of now you have to navigate to their website to find it. After you get it going however, it is a great game. The mechanics in game are fun, allowing you to discover different combinations including game topic, genre, platform, etc. and the best choices to make a hit game aren’t obvious and require some logic and guesswork. If anything my only complaint is that it can get too complicated as you start to hire employees and develop larger games, but it does get simpler and easier to understand the more you play, and once you finish you can restart as it has a lot of replay value. Easily worth $5.

Great Game. First of all I’d like to say how much I appreciate a game that does not use the Freemium business model, which is ruining video games in my opinion. So, I give you a 6th star for making this a buy once and own it game. I would not have giving this a second look had it been freemium. With that out of the way, I will say that this game is fantastic. Perfect for mobile. Basically you are a small business owner when you start and have to earn money by making games. You make all the decisions about what games are made, what research to do, who to hire, what audience to gear your games for etc etc. I can’t stop playing. If you like simulation style games where you have to earn money and build a business by making decisions and strategizing, you will love this game. If you have an appreciation for the history of the video game industry then that will be a bonus, but you don’t need to know about the gaming industry to enjoy this game. I just moved to my new office and hired my first employee and am looking forward to seeing how big I can make the company grow. Please keep making game like this. I will keep buying them. Cheers!

Incredible game, worth the price. This game is absolutely astounding and blows my minds as I come back and play it again year after year, if I could give this 4.5 stars I would. The one issue i had with this game was that as I reached my 10th year on my company, I quit out of the game after saving it and in a few hours I tried to load up the save which said my stats, which year I was in and my company name, so great I loaded it up and when I loaded in I was back on year 1 although it said year 10 and I had lost all of my progress sadly. But so far this is the only issue I’ve had and I will be starting a new game shortly - thank you so much to the developers who have made this game perfect and an absolute masterpiece, I’ve had this game since it’s release date on pc and will continue to play it, thank you for the incredible experience

reeeee. problems: -linear story, you cannot change the plot or outcome, you always reach the game’s end after becoming a gigantic business and agent blowfish only has two skills, research and disruption -illogical additions, adding things like open world or day night cycle to music simulation seems a little off, no? -missing functions, things like updates and freemium games are missing -random crashes, this doesn't annoy me however it is very constant how the game crashes upon the first startup, i have a fast ipad so i can just re-open it but it’ll be a bother to others who have slower models -un dynamic environment, things like faulty reviews or unpopular opinions for the reviewing companies don't matter, you cant make any companies aside from your own, managers, HR, etc. don't exist either and most of all you can only hire a limited work force. I could go on and on however i know the developer is a person so i’ll limit it to the things that are most important -There are only 6 categories, I know having more would make it much more complicated but it seems kind of stale, no? -those other games, I know what im talking about and you now what im talking about -other, why can you only start your career around the times of PC and commodore(btw commodore/govodore is a PC) why not xbox or just making regular web games

Great Game, Awful Mechanic. I really do love this game. It is addictive, it builds upon itself by teaching you more complex mechanics as the game/time progresses naturally, and is overall a really fun experience. However, there’s one massive issue: Game scores are weighted based on the quality of the prior release and the consistency of titles rather than the individual quality of the game. I cannot stress how awful this mechanic is. If you release one 10/10 game, you can expect your next few titles to be absolutely screwed no matter how much effort you put into them. It is especially apparent the longer you play the game. This disincentivizes you from trying new things or new topic/genre combinations and instead pushes you to create more of the same. That being said, this is still a very fun game to play and I really hope there is a sequel eventually. It just loses a lot of its appeal once you release one or two highly rated titles.

Often Imitated Never Duplicated. Here it is! The original heartthrob from Greenheart, it’s the hands-down best tycoon game of the genre “Game Dev.” Anyone who has played this gem on Steam will tell you that this game is pure, unadulterated fun and, here’s the thing: this is the FULL STINKING GAME! This isn’t a “mobile version,” this is the full, $10 game for half the price!! I was lucky enough to get to test the game. Even though I’ve played thru and beat it on mobile, and logged many hours playing and replaying on Steam, I’m still buying it. It’s THAT good (and replay-able), and the the optimizations for mobile have made it an easy decision to pay the measly $5 for the privilege of owning it on IOS, and the joy of supporting these great devs. Thank you Greenheart and Rarebyte for taking a chance in this market, and good luck on all your future endeavors!

This game is very well made. As a simple gamer, I don’t have much experience in criticizing, so my points may not be that great. However, upon opening this game, I could sense that it would be a fun experience, as I have always wanted to make my own game. The sense of becoming a game developer was quite appealing to me, and the style of Game Dev Tycoon was cute to me. I watched my little game studio grow in popularity and wealth, making a bright smile appear on my face after making every game. This game, while ever a tad challenging, is a good game to play to pass the time. If I were to say one thing about this that I found displeasing, it would have to be the extreme rate at which events happen. But then again, I suppose that brings this game some extra charm. A good game and an average review from a fellow Gamer.

I absolutely love this game. This is everything I have been looking for in a game in which you have to run a business. I love that I get frustrated when a game doesn’t do well or get really excited when I get the ratings and profit I want, it’s because of that, that I have been able to play to for hours on end. But now I want more and I have ideas. My one concern is that when I opened my hardware lab there were a lot of options for consoles but now I only have 2 options and there both cubes, one white and one black. I have a lot of money saved up so I don’t think it’s anything about that but I am curious as to why there was once a big selection, and now only 2. I would also love a feature where we can interact with the businesses of other players too. Maybe being able to partner with companies, invest in them, buy hardware or even license hardware and game engines, that would be very cool. Also I think if at a certain point, like maybe when player generates enough money and gets a feel for the game, what works and doesn’t, there should a feature that allows players to start teams, like the graphics team, the dialogues team and so on, I feel like that would be a good way to continue growing.

Simple, yet brilliant! Worth the 5 dollars!. I purchased this game on steam when it first came out and I immediately fell in love with it, the gameplay is so simple, and yet allow for so much customization of games that you can create. As someone who always wanted to get into computer science and game design it falls perfectly into that niche that hits all the areas of control that you would want. Another aspect of the game that is so unique in my opinion is the way that the game allows you to travel through the history of game development, and how you have to react to the different flows of trends and controversies that work in the game. As a port to the IPhone, the game plays beautifully with a unique menu system that flows with the more compact design for touch controls, I honestly enjoyed the update a little more then the original now that I can take it with me wherever I go!

This game is LEGENDARY but it needs more more development. What I mean is that I think it would be better if you could see, or interact with your competitors. I also think there should be more consoles, and when your making a custom console you should have it so that it’s more... involved I guess is the right word, when I say involved I mean more options for something like, what kind of of software, what kind of controller type, more design choices how many bits and whatnot. I know there are already mods for this, but not for mobile and some can’t download these mods because it’s on mobile (for IOS at least) I think there could be an update. I don’t care that I’ve been playing this game for around 4 years, I like it a lot and would love more improvement.

Perfect game. Best out. Okay so ima keep this short and simple. This game is worth the cost. I’m very happy I was able to get this game because the gameplay is just so perfect. I can just hop on whenever i like and pass the time like it’s nothing. It’s not too hard to get going but not too easy. I still haven’t mastered it but it’s fun getting to that point. I haven’t gotten too far but hopefully by the time I do there will be more features being added. And I also hope that future games from this company are just as good and even better. But I really hope it don’t cost money. I know it’ll prob be worth it but I really don’t get a lot of chances to get money on here and would rather it just be a free game with ads and then you can also pay to get rid of them. But please make more. But definitely don’t forget about this game either.

Fantastic Port!. Wow, great job, Greenheart. This port is ridiculously good! As many people before me have said, you even managed to improve on the original pretty significantly. Really well done! The only reason I gave you four stars instead of five is because I think I found a bug. I’ve just reached the point where I can create specialists and so I assigned a few people. However, I can’t seem to see anywhere who is a specialist in what. In the original you can see someone’s specialization next to their name on the floor and in the development stage menus. I couldn’t find it in either place. This is problematic for a couple reasons: I would like to assign more specialists, but I can’t tell which specializations I already have; I want my specialists to work on the appropriate task during development, but I can’t remember who does what. Any chance this is a quick fix so I can change my rating to five stars? I love you guys. -Ben

Great Game but I would like some extras. The game is amazing but I have some ideas that I would like to see in feature updates: 1. More statistics, people like to see those, how much money they make per game in average, average stars per game, sales per game, etc. Also add a rating for the entire company. 2. Add some competition, if you launch an mmo or something there might be some other company that already released a similar mmo, if you get higher ratings than them you should get more market share, but if you get lower ratings you get an extra debuff since the other company has a better game, less customers and sales, etc 3. Set a limit, on how many customers there are, it’s great that the game can go infinitely but there should be a cap like 70 million people, and people like different things, so in those 70 million, some like action while some like rpgs. The ones that like action would be less likely to buy an rpg. If a game gets good enough ratings they could attract more people into the market, like if one gets a perfect score they might add like 3 million people. Random events should add more people into the market too. That’s all I have. Continue the great work!

Star Games. My new favorite! 1. I almost never buy games 2. I never bother with reviews I love the game and it was definitely worth the $5 but I do have a few suggestions 1. Make the 2 play through totally different topics and liking of certain topics so you don’t always have everything down with what’s good and bad any you can’t make amazing games every time. 2. Make new consoles that don’t exist yes just to expand the time of playability before you restart. 3. Make research points more easy to get or less important. 4. Make employees like have personalities and make cutscenes for when you fire them. 5. There should be a panic button. So like when this game absolutely needs to go well you hit the panic button and make it a 50% chance it’s being a better game and a 50% chance it’s a worse game. But these are just suggestions and I love the game you guys did a great job.

One of my favorite mobile purchases. This game is probably my favorite mobile purchase. I’ve been following it probably since it came out and just a few days ago, I got to buy it and today I just finished my first playthrough. I feel, however, there could be a few things you could add such as: • A map which you can view to buy other offices to expand your business - I think this would be good because it could add another challenge to the game. It would increase monthly costs and whatever other things you would decide to add as a challenge if you added this • Actual competition - This would add an actual challenge (such as timing game releases, not making the same style of game as another company at the same time, etc.) I feel as if it would make the game more fun and rewarding. Especially since it would be harder to grow as a company when you are starting because of the other Game Titans. The stage is already set because the names of companies are already in the game: Electronic Mass (if you lose), Vonny, etc. •• If you decided to add any of these I would gladly buy them as long as they weren’t outrageously priced, I feel $5 would work or if it required a lot of time and effort to make these, then $10 would work too and I would still buy it. Thank you for making this game and potentially, considering my ideas.

Please read!. I have a lot to say about this game. Get ready…. This game is incredible! I love the cheap price. It’s definitely worth more than $5, but the developers understand people want low prices. Thank you for not charging like $10! Playing this game just makes me happy. I love developing games. I also like the ratings. I just got my first 9 rating. The rather said “One of the best.” You need to have a good strategy to succeed, and this game is a fun challenge that is not to hard!! I also LOVE the message from the developers thanking me for buying. Reading it made me smile and really made me appreciate my choice in buying the game. This game is definitely not a waste of money. I have zero regrets in this purchase. I generally do not buy games, but this is truly worth it. There really aren’t words to describe this incredible game. If you’re thinking about buying the game, go ahead and do it. You WILL NOT regret it!

Truly Amazing!. This has been by far one of the best phone games I have ever played! The developers made this extremely easy to learn and easy to use. These people seem very genuine and nice as well. This game goes very in depth and is just all around great. I’ve been playing since it released and I never get tired of going bankrupt and starting again. I’m not the best at the game by any means but that doesn’t mean this isn’t fun. Great job to the development team who created this game I’m very happy I came across it. If you like video games and a tight challenge to last the recommended 35 years or even the long haul 42 years then this is definitely worth trying. I highly recommend this game to anyone at all its easy to learn, fun to play, and still has yet to bore me! Once again great job to the people who put the time and effort into this game it was so worth it. I hope y’all are as happy as I am with this work of art.

AWESOME but plz add more things!!!!!!. Alright, first off. It's an Awesome game!!!! I now have more respect for game creators and daaannnnngggg competition is tough. I think that's how you say it right? XD anyway you should add employee personalities because it's kinda boring and what's the point of firing them? Besides to get a better employee. An example of it would be like an employee is a "bully" and yelling others and things like that. It makes a whole new purpose in firing them which makes you pay attention to your employees more. 2- You should add character/ CPU interactions just to make it real ish. It would be cool if u did add it :D. 3- at the end of the game, why don't you make up more consoles? Your able to progress more and be able to generate ideas to new gamers and inventors and maybe invent a similar model and console like that. If you keep doing that, you could evolve the company to the office place in a 3/4 floor buildings and move the research lab thing and the console builder below it and more floors of your company above it. 4- speaking of research lab, you should add more research topics because after the grid and MMO, it's basically conventions and more conventions. 5- speaking of conventions you should get something for being top in the 3G , or G3 idk. I know it's still an early game (I think) and your maybe adding more things. So these are the things I suggest you to add :D Thx!!! Ps. The Game Is AMAZING!!!!

Right on the money. Greenheart Games really really chose the right subject for a game—then absolutely nailed the design. Game Dev Tycoon is a tycoon, and I love tycoons. Except this stood out from the others. Game Dev Tycoon has good cartoon graphics, no ads (or in app purchases at all), no hanging or big glitches, and lots of other things. This is Greenheart’s first game. Like said in the game—I really wonder what they will deliver next. I have no idea why it isn't an editor's choice. In my opinion, if this game was a restaurant, it would be Michillin. I hope Greenheart continues to deliver updates for their amazing game. Thank you so much Greenheart Games for making this amazing game. Anyone who plays your first game will instantly become addicted. Thank you for reading this. If Greenheart reads this, please stay awesome.

Outstanding Game. * Suggestions for a New One*. I Love Game Dev. Tycoon. I have been playing it since it’s came out. I feel it’s one of the best games on the App Store or any App Store and I would love to see more of it. Maybe try Improving the story just a little bit making the coworkers more interactive. I know you guys have suggestions on a new game maybe a sequel to this one and I know people really don’t listen to fans all that well but I feel you guys are totally different. I suggest that you make a simulation game like this one but themed off of the music industry and have artist record tracks and releasing them. Making them interactive with their CEO a lot, and I think this could be the perfect second game for you guys to come off of. But anyways love you guys and can’t wait to see more of what you do cause I will definitely be right behind to support you. ❤️

Actually such a fun game! (please read) :). I stumbled across this game on steam back in the beginning of 2019 and was actually completely unaware of there being a mobile version. After playing the steam version I went into the mobile version with high expectations and was not disappointed at all! Definitely my favorite tycoon game. In addition, the realistic story is both interesting and informative. I actually have a video game history course in college right now (no that’s not a lie apparently video game history courses are a real thing) and there were a lot of things the professor asked that I was able to answer simply because I played this game, so props to Greenheart Games for making such a good game! :)

Great with some frustration. I bought on Mac as well so I’m well versed in it and replaying it again I have similar frustrations which are: 1) time goes really fast. By the time you finish a game and start developing one for a new platform it seems like another platform comes out and that one is out of date. 2). Topics which bear no relation to gaming. Why can’t they be more real things so you know what should be done. Is level design important in a hospital game? No idea until you get a 2 star score and wasted 11 months. 3). Need to rename games. How many Game #XX do I have to have lol. 4). Replayability. Yes I’m playing again but it’s not really something you play for a long time over and over. You know Dreamcast is gonna come out and its going to bomb. You know pretty much what will happen. 5). The research lab doesn’t produce research points? 6). Timeline gets way off - xbox 0ne is released yet no one knows multiplayer? But still - great game.

Lots of potential, but significant oversights. I love the original Game Dev Story, and GDT makes a lot of dynamic innovations over GDS. But some major problems in the game logic make this one more annoying than enjoyable. The first is the way they base the rating off the game on the previous rating of them game. Instead of building a company by gradually improving your games, you have to rig the system by making a bad game to get a good game. In other words, the game penalizing you for making consistently good games. Getting a 10/10 on a game ends up being something you want to avoid, rather than a positive achievement. Other oversights are the way they handle costs, where some things are too expensive to ever be worth bothering with. MMO games are a prime example. They have no cap on the increasing maintenance costs over time, so they become a financial black hole. So why make them. The key to winning this game, in other words, is to learn the non-intuitive ways to succeed in the game that you pretty much only figure out by trial-and-error or by reading Internet forums on the game, because so many of the decisions you make in the game have consequences completely outside any intuitive logic. The original GDS is simpler, and lacks a lot of the cool features of GDT, but it’s still a more enjoyable game to play because it follows some identifiable logic that players can discover more intuitively in the game to become successful.

Just my opinion. I love this game and it’s worth the money could use a update or two but that doesn’t stop it from being super fun it’s cool that I was able to support y’all twice because I used this on my old phone bought it and wrote a five star review and I’m able to again buy it and right another five star review this game never get boring even when you finish it it’s actually super fun when you finished it because you can make consoles and MMO’s and have like 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 dollars one thing is that I wish there was a console history because I can look back at my games but not my consoles -just read a review and the response said that y’all wouldn’t make any updates besides bug fixes so never mind on the update part

Time flies by when playing. Literally. I moan the same frustrations as other players; the time goes by tooooooo fast. Also the algorithm for create good games are way off. I’ll have a blockbuster then 6 straight duds using what I gained from game reports. In regards to the game reports; it’d be nice if the knowledge you gained from researching them actually applies to the next game you develop. I played a similar Game Dev Tycoon and it seems you guys expanded on some of their shortcomings but created more games in your own design. Let’s slow the time down and stop working at breakneck speed. Allow users to really study where they went wrong in the last game instead of forcing more duds into the market. Also let us develop more than 1 game at a time if you insist on the clock moving so fast. All in all a solid game but very frustrating when almost everything you develop comes down to a proverbial crap shoot.

A wunderwaffe of a game. This game is simple, and phenomenal for its work and simplicity. Pressing buttons and sliding some sliders. That's all the game is. But it's still fantastic. No ads, no berating to like on the App Store, and events, though rarer than I would like, are justly worth it (A scam sent to me I was about to accept, until I thought of the old Nigerian scammers. I luckily avoided it.) I would like to see some different changes (Time speed control, the ability to give speeches at G3, different characters that don't look like their faces have been superglued on, interaction with co workers, etc) Other than that, the only reason this should not be in your lobby is because of an admirably steeper price, but it truly is worth it to buy, even if you stop playing, it would be excellent to use if you want some easygoing fun on the random.

Addicting and Sweet. This game is somehow very endearing and feels like gambling with no bad consequence. I enjoy naming the games ridiculous puns. You can cheat on this game and it is still pretty fun. This game can be easily enjoyed alone OR with friends. It takes up almost no space on my phone and the UX is great. There is the right mix of creativity and mindlessness and I love playing this in class instead of paying attention at school. I do prefer the desktop version but the graphics on mobile are a little bit cuter and the topics have been updated. This is worth $5 imo and is more fun than the fancy RPG games with all kinds of graphics and controls and scenery. Did I mention it’s adorable? Sorry for gushing. Bye.

Incredible. 1. I rarely, RARELY buy a game 2. I rarely, RARELY leave game reviews So the fact that I'm leaving a review for a game I bought speaks volumes in itself: This game is incredible and probably the only game I have ever purchased that is truly WORTH. EVERY. PENNY. I played it for 10 hours straight and didn't even realize it. The game design gives you just enough mechanic understanding to get you going, but then leaves some information up to your creative chances - great mix. Both the development and research options cause you to carefully calculate each decision. I'm still on my first play-through, but I feel replay ability of this game will be very high due to the vast amount of individual creativity that goes it to the play. Game Devs, thank you for a great game! I'd play anything you develop in the future. One thing I wish was in this game: a game report history, or something like that. The "+++" or "---" from reports are shown only if that exact combo is used again. I wish I had a screen to see that showed what I had learned about something in general, rather than an exact combo with something else. For instance, I could see what I had learned about "Strategy" so that I could plan for "Strategy-Sim."

I almost never write reviews…. But this game is so fun and we’ll thought out, I just had to give it a review. Not to mention the little touches from the creators (like an in-game thank you note) puts a kind importance on reviewing. Not only does this really get into the details of game development in a fun, rewarding way, it also gives those who are well versed in gaming knowledge a leg up (because it’s relatively real to life! It’s very easy to follow, although still challenging to perfect. I could not recommend this game more!! Definitely worth the purchase, especially since it’s helping an indie company that is very obviously going far and high in the industry (:

Excellent and Addictive game. I originally played the PC version and became hooked! I played through it three times and found each one enjoyable. When I heard this one was out in mobile form, I had to give it a try. I have played Game Dev Story as well, and while that game is fun for a bit, it felt much more formulaic then Game Dev Tycoon, which I believe was released first. The redesign to mobile that the developers did plays well in my iPhone 6S. I can tell that thought was given to how it would look and feel as opposed to being rushed. The other part about this game that I love is Greenheart Games stance against “Pay to Play” or “In-App” purchases. When you buy it, you get the whole thing and are never pestered with advertising or nudged to buy anything additional in the game. It’s not the most profitable model of game anymore, but it makes the overall experience so much more enjoyable in my opinion. It’s an all around great game and worth the money.

Great game but it needs some UI improvements. So I just bought this game and I’ve been playing for a couple hours. From my experience it is a really enjoyable game with a lot of potential. That being said, I do have a 1 complaint. Throughout the game a big theme is to manage your money wisely. This is pretty easy in the first level, but as you level up it gets harder. Now I haven’t completed the game, so it may change later on, but so far there is no “bill summary” or way for players to see where there are future expenses or loan paybacks. I think adding a “calendar” feature or something would make it better for planning out expenses. Overall great game but it would be nice to know specifically how much a player owes each month and year. Thank you.

Wow. First of all, great game. 5 stars. I love the aspects and theme of the game. I have some suggestions I would like to share with you all. First of all the first time I finished the game( regular mode) I was excited and couldn’t wait to do other stuff until I realized that the console was the only other thing I could do. I understand that you can’t really add new consoles that haven’t been created irl but you could make some futuristic consoles that will be released once you get far into the game. 2 I was on like year 110 and I couldn’t lose any money I even tried making horrible games and never lost money and that kinda defeats the purpose of completing the game so that you feel like a god but you don’t even actually have to do anything. My review probably isn’t great but the game is so I hope that the developers will will review this so that they can make the game better.

Figured out that i was the problem. I was waiting for the opportunity to develop my own console. After researching everything I thought I would get a prompt to expand my options. But nothing came. When i swipe left or right I see the edge of a room , but I can’t seem to swipe fully to access the rooms. Is this game broken on iphone? I was able to move between rooms to develop more things in the pc version. Update: I realized none of my characters research level was high enough for design specialist. I think I accidentally skipped that line of dialogue and was just lost. So it was my fault. What had confused me was being able to see the edges of the other rooms when i swiped, it made me think something was broken.

Great game, thoughtful design.. This game is great! It starts you out small and gives you a nice sense of reward, accomplishment, and progression as you make better quality games. It can be tough through trial and error, but it’s great once you get the hang of things. There are so many small details in this game which is nice to see the thought put into it. My only issue so far is when you create a medium sized game, if you don’t have 3+ staff members necessary to man the jobs for a medium game, you’re screwed. Once the menu comes up where you allocate who does what task for the medium game, since you don’t have enough to fill all 3, you can’t continue, but you also can’t exit at all, the only way is to exit the game or hope there’s a recent saved game otherwise it’s back to square one. I don’t write reviews for anything, but I had to for this issue, it’s so annoying. Other than that great game, 10/10

Dear Devs, great game! But... Awesome game guys. I love it. I cant stop playing it. i definitely don't have what it takes to be a game dev tycoon. Yet. But there are a few little issues that don’t detract but are just minor annoyance. A little bug maybe. After going in the red I was asked if I wanted to take a loan out for about 400K, but later payback only 25K. I thought I was about to just make out with that extra money, but the bailout ended up actually being over 500K. Maybe a mistake in the writing? Also, playing on the iPhone x, I tend to hold my phone with the Volume buttons down. The start up screen will display that orientation, but is soon as you get to the game menu and the game itself it automatically flips 180°. And you can’t rotate it back.

Great with some ideas.. I just bought this game today and I’m already hooked! I don’t know why I didn’t buy it sooner. This game is amazing and I love every aspect of it. One Idea i have is you should add a difficulty rating. Like if you choose easy then stuff is cheaper or you make more money per game. Reviews and high star ratings are easy to get. Normal would be the way the game is now at its normal pace. And hard difficulty would be for the people who want a challenge. Stuff is more expensive or you make less money. Reviews and high star ratings are tougher and you really have to focus and work hard to make it big in the game. That’s my only idea for the game. Besides that the game is amazing and I’m happy I bought it. Definitely worth the money. Keep up the good work guys. Amazing 5/5 stars earned.

Love the game. I love this game, more than most, I always seem to come back to play a new company and such, but I have been getting bored, and irritated in the end runs, like, I feel like when you get a console, you are the only one making games for it, and because of that the actual... I don’t know, overall Sales of the game suffer for it? Not to mention the game makes me feel like making an MMO isn’t worth it because I think of games like World of Warcraft with their expansions and I can only get in one or two, it just seems very redundant and like I said makes it feel not worth it. I also think you should add Battle Royale to the possible researches, but make it so it’s free, but you can make “season” battle passes to keep the game going, like an MMO but far more competitive, just a thought or two!

Great game completely worth. I watched videos on this game and they were great but it’s not the videos that fought my attention. Once I decided to buy I was full of joy, the simple but unique and great concept for this game was intriguing, some games are about the character being a youtuber but this game shows the other side of the spectrum the player is the game developer and that’s amazing by itself. This game is easy to get stuck in and easy to understand but yet so complex, you don’t have to do much just a topic, genre, and a platform but there is so much to it, they’re a lot of things to take into consideration like if a topic and genre go together well or not and if that combination work well on a certain platform. Don’t even get me started on the plenty of different topics and combinations. If you ask me this game will never get boring. I hope that my review will help you make a choice to buy this game you will not regret it.

Great but addictive!. After downloading this game, I spent the next 6 hours playing, growing my small business and going bankrupt a few times. Learning from the mistakes I restarted and continued the vicious cycle. I don’t know how to stop! And the great thing is, it doesn’t drain my battery like other games! I could go on for hours playing this! I don’t know if we can have a steady income or not but if we can then I can’t wait to reach that part of the game. Like in “in-app purchases” and such in my Dev games. Anyways this game is pretty fun and although I’m still new to it I’ll be updating if anything changes at all from my perspective! I don’t think it will tho! :D I love it!

Truly a hidden gem. I first played this game on my PC after stumbling across it on Steam. I fell in love immediately, playing it through twice in just a few days. When I heard that there was an updated version for iPhone, I found and downloaded it right away. This version is even longer than the one I played on PC a couple of years ago, and every bit as fun as it was. As someone that studies the history of the gaming industry for fun, this game gets me grinning. It’s simple to grasp, with tricks to learn as you go to maximize your games and profit, and plenty to try and balance as you get into the second half of the game. If you’re a fan of gaming, I highly recommend this one. It’s a steal for the price.

Made for mobile. I’ve been playing Game Dev Tycoon since it first came out on pc and even emailed to see if they were going to port it to mobile so I could know if I’d be able to play on the go. The game is great and the update since the mobile release is a nice touch adding little details. There are a handful of of game dev tycoon games out of which I own 90% of them so trust me when I say this is the best one. Im not too far into the new mobile version but some cool features would be pre-made magazine covers with the topic and genre as well as your game name and rating on the cover would be a pretty cool touch. Some quick cutscenes would be a nice touch for events would be nice detail.

Greenheart games knows what they’re doing. What’s there to say? I get in this game, and it’s basically Gamecorp if you were to put sandpaper to it. I’m in the middle of something and a message from Greenheart pops up in my game notifications, saying how nice it is that I bought the game! Most gamedevs are trying to continue making money off you in those pop-ups, but NOPE!!! And about making money, these guys simply make you pay $0.99 for the entire experience! No ads, no predatory BS ‘microtransactions’ we’re all used to, nothing but you and your video game video games, and this ‘tycoon’ is much different than the billions of flash/phone idle games that devs crank out 50 times an hour. When another message popped up, it gave me a little questionnaire and I agreed to write this review. I hope Greenheart keeps their heart and I hope the money they get is enough to make everyone in the company filthy rich.

Best game on iOS. As the title said, it was the best dollars I’ve spent on a phone game. Even though it’s a paid game, imo it’s much cheaper than those free to play games with tons of micro transactions in them. I am a gamer. I play on console and PC. I am also an advocate for mobile games. I think the potential are there definitely. This game proves that, it’s just as fun, or even more than those big games you play on the traditional platform. It is super addicting. You can replay it over and over again and it will be different every time. I bought a lot of mobile games. This is by far the best hands down. I am also a person who doesn’t leave review. But I just can’t wait to tell everyone how great this game is. I am going to pester my husband to download this game too. Wish me luck.

Good idea with some problems. In general, it’s a nice idea and a fun game but there are some issues that make it very frustrating. 1. The timeline moves very fast and you don’t really get a chance to develop much for the new platforms. I basically gave up on them quickly and just focused on PC. 2. As others noted, there really doesn’t seem to be much logic behind what works and what doesn’t. Using your own gaming experience does not help much. 3. Some of the text is very small (I’m playing on iPad mini), please consider the players with less than perfect eyesight. 4. Major flaw: it cost a fortune hiring new staff and when you’re presented with the applicant list there is no warning that you will just lose the money if you close the screen without making a choice. I thought it’ll stay open and just wanted to check what skills my existing person had and boom, 350k loss. :( 5. It said that developing new engines is important but didn’t really explain how it works and what it does. I also did not see much effect on using the engines and game quality / sales. Most importantly, you can’t see what is in the existing engines. It just says engine 1, 2, 3 and you have no idea unless you named them beforehand or took notes. 6. I also don’t see any features that would show some summary of previous analysis. Basically you have to take notes yourself as you get any info. I wish this would be supported in game. Overall there is a lot of potential.

Better than PC version. The message spam filters were worth buying this game a second time all by itself. This is a solid, highly addictive game on the PC. Recreating that level of appeal on a mobile platform is rare enough, but doing it without the in-app purchase-game-design-tactics, and at the same time doing it better than the PC version is remarkable. The topics available and much better than PC version also. I have to add that this game has a very clever evil: if you're one of the millions of aspiring game designers out there, you will find it especially addictive and not spend as much time as you should developing your own game and put that time into playing this game, which will lead to less competition for Greenheart Games (GDT's developer). That's just brilliant.

I WANT A SEQUEEEEEEEEEL. Okay, I'm just gonna say this game is AWESOME! And I think it’s ironic how I want a sequel for the game and there’s a review in the the game that says “can’t wait for the sequel.” So im just saying that I really want a sequel 🥺 I think what could be added in the sequel is 3D and that would definitely make the sequel amazing. If I could buy something from this game I would HANDS DOWN. Another thing is that, when you wait, after the game is finished and you want to add more to the game I would like it if you would add both Tech and Art at the same time for every week. It would definitely make the game better and not too easy. Also, I would like you to add a more accurate time line. What I mean is like adding “this takes place in 1983” or something like that. Also with the months as well. Also another thing is the comment on the reviews, I feel like some comments on 5-2 maybe 3 definitely should be changed because the comments on 5-3 just pick me apart and makes me upset. It is an amazing game and I just wanted to give you this review to say what I would want if you made a sequel. Have a wonderful day!

THIS GAME IS EPIC. This game is AMAZING! It really shows you how games are developed. In addition to that, the creativity options in this game are amazing. Whenever you make a good game you are rewarded which really makes you feel like you accomplished something. However, a bad game penalizes you in a very user friendly way. It shows you what you did wrong so that you can improve it later. You may lose money and a few fans but nothing a good game wouldn’t fix. This game is extremely balanced and for those people who think the game is short and easy, there is a piracy mode which is EXTREMELY difficult and will make veterans of the game think outside the box. Overall this game is extremely good and can be replayed over and over again. As I’m writing this review I have 10 companies fully finished and I’m working on my 11th and I haven’t gotten bored once. The achievements in the game also give people another thing to do on top of the countless of things to be explored in the game from Easter eggs, to game combinations and research. This game is countless months of fun for a day’s work. And to top it all off, there are no in app purchases and ads! Something that not many games can say. This game is definitely worth it and I thank the developers for making a game that I have enjoyed for months on end.

This game is awesome! A few notes tho.. I am a game developer and YouTuber myself. And there are a couple of things I'd like to see in this game other than these things, this game is awesome! I'd like to see updates to game engines and games themselves. Being able to make new versions of your game would be amazing. (You can make it to where it costs more time to make the update!) I'd also love to see more ways to make popular games! Like what if I wanted to remake Mario or something! There's no topic for games like that! So I honestly would love, like love, to see these updates in future game versions thank you and you've done a great job on this game!

Make updates in game possible. I think updates would allow for your company to earn some more money and create the best games possible, I think that you should mainly earn fans from updates and only a tiny bit of money.👌otherwise it is perfect

Played It For Ages. I originally bought this game on PC when I was around 7 years old, played it for ages and with this new mobile touch it feels a whole lot greater! Thanks Greenheart and I can't wait till' Tavern Keeper comes out!

So fun, have played for hours. I’ve recently purchased this game again on my new phone and It’s just as fun starting again. So replayable and so enjoyable! The grind is so fun and trying to use your brain to think about what will work for what genres etc is so fun. 10/10

Thank You.. Can I just say, this is the best gaming experience I have ever had on my Phone. The game is so detailed, and even though it is a challenging game, it’s so realistic! I want to thank you, Greenheart - you have made a truly amazing game! Keep up the good work, I love it!

Super port. This game was a PC game first & the mobile version is just as good! Touch options are great & super easy to navigate. If you are a fan of sim games, I would give this one a go!

Awesome Game!!!. I’ve played this game on my PC and I was surprised when it was available on iOS. Even better then the PC version and I hope you release updates every now and again. I hope Greenheart Games release more games as awesome as this in the future.

More please. I used to play this on the PC back in 2014 and now that it’s on mobile, I knew it was a 100% must purchase. Please come in with consistent updates especially to the end of the ‘story’ - lengthen out the gaming history to current times in 2018 with consoles and genres on the rise such as Battle Royale, which is a major part in Video Game history.

The tycoon of games. Absolutely an awesome game! I hope the devs that made this get all the proper recognition they deserve. It’s worth every cent this game and definitely the best sim game on iOS! Keep the games coming cause I’d happily pay what you ask for if you continue to make games like this.

Amazing game with so many sophisticated elements. I have never written any review for any game before. Such an amazing and rich gameplay. I am a developer myself, although i not a game developer, i have so much respect for the developers of this game. The game slowly builds up overtime to increase the complexity of the gameplay to make it exciting and fun. Thank you guys!!

A Couple Flaws. I love this game! Not only is it fun but it’s also educational on gaming history. Although there are some flaws: 1. Monthly costs are too big. What are we paying for anyway (other than workers)? I often go bankrupt because of this. 2. Once bankrupt, why can’t we still be hired by other companies and continue even if not in control? 3. It’s a little too much money. 4. We can’t choose our first 4 topics Thanks for reading! :)

Thanks for making this game!. Hi! I just want to say thanks to greenheart games for making this game. It was a little pricey but totally worth it! It’s a really fun game and I hope you make a sequel. * wink*

Satisfying. Found it super hard at first spent all day restarting and failing, but once you make that break of a 10/10 game you hit the millions👊🏼

11/10 Game. This game is good. Really good. It is great for playing in the car or on a road trip or really anywhere because it is offline. The best part about this game is how you go from tiny game company making 60k per game to 60 million per game. I love the research and maxing our all my employees to have the best team to make games. 2 x things I recommend: adding a sandbox mode with the final office and everything researched, and making custom games so you can choose your starting money and research points and what not. Overall this is a great game with amazing features and for its price it is 100% worth it.

Amazing Game. Normally you’d look at titles like these and think “just another crappy tycoon” but this is one of the greatest casual games I’ve played in some time. Worth it? HELL YEAH

Just loving it!!!!. I was looking for a game just like this recently, seeing that the reviews where so great I just had to check this out! I played just 15 minutes and I was hooked, I was so surprised to see that this was one of your first games!!! Don’t mind the price, it’s really worth it. Keep up the great work!! 😁👍

Best game app I've played!. I have this on my pc and have played hours of it. Decided to get the app for my son's iPad. He loves it. It's a terrific game & I agree with some of the other comments, well worth the $7.99au I paid for it. Hours of enjoyment. Thank you Greenheart, keep on keepin' on guys.😍🤙🏽

Sandbox. This game is one of the best games I have ever played. However, I’d like to request a feature. After finishing the main game, you could unlock sandbox mode. This sandbox mode has unlimited money and research points. If you could implement this feature I would be very happy. Thank you in advance. :) Now for review. This is a great game. I play it daily, making games and making the lives of so many virtual citizens better. $8 might seem a lot, but it’s worth it. There’s no in app purchases or pay2win, or buying virtual currency. Just one purchase and the full game at your fingertips. And it’s offline too! Highly recommend.

Great Game. This is a great game to play and is so addictive. I’ve played this for hours and can’t get enough. A few downsides is that you’re restricted to what you can do. You’ve only got limited hours of a changing enviroment until your stuck with what feels like no challengers in the industry and the console building is also really fun but your also limited with that as well. I love this game but I just hope it’ll last a bit longer than what it does.

Totally Worth it. Absolutely love this game played it on pc and now i get to play it again and its one of those titles that works so well on mobiles, i highly recommend this to anyone who likes tycoon style games or sim games. The Devs did an awesome job, keep up the good work

Everybody Loves It!. It’s a simple concept - create a game company and the games it sells, but I never thought it could be so addicting! I’ve put lots of hours into the pc version, and now that it’s on iOS, I just had to buy it again! There are welcome additions in the iOS release, such as more game topics, random events and the new ‘pirate mode’ which sheds some light as to the current state of the gaming industry, and reveals another side to the supposedly evil practices some game companies employ in order to keep existing. Really great stuff!

It’s really good. It’s great but I wish it was updated to have all the modern stuff we have now, that would be good. Like the current consoles, current tech, current phones. Is there ever going to be one?

Great game. Have had this home for years! I play this game on & off over the years and enjoy it every time. I do wish there was more campaign modes. A campaign where you were competing against other game companies would make it more competitive. A fun game overall.

Awesome. I played this on pc. I’m really happy to see some cosmetic updates and new consoles/ story events. I’ve just done a full play through and every stage was a challenge in its own way. Highly recommend

So much good.. The humble game developers really put so much effort into an incredibly fun and Addless game. Honestly the best mobile game I’ve ever played and anyone who hasn’t played it should 100% download this game. It is actually brilliant.

Dirty Nostalgic Fun!!. What more can I say. So many memories and it’s fascinating my little boy too. I’d say you may just create some hype around game development again.

The King of Game Dev Sims. Have played this game on PC for ages, and was sooo happy to find out this was on the iPhone! If you’re looking for something to casually build up day by day, this game is ideally for you! Can’t recommend enough

The best tycoon game. I have played a lot of simulators, and this is by far the best. It is worth every cent and once you buy it you don’t need to spend anymore. There are no in app purchases and I think that’s great. This is truly one of my favourite games.

Love, love, LOVE.. Always been a huge fan of business simulation games, both for mobile and PC. This game here hits the spot for my on-the-go craving. At first glance, $7.99 seems pretty pricey. But so far has proven to be worth every cent out of enjoyment alone, let alone supporting the devs to continue to improve and create more games.

Battle Royal Plz. This was one of the best games I have played in my entire life. The creators did an amazing job and a half. I would make a request for you to create a BattleRoyal. Because fort nite and apex. I just want a little bit more fun. Over all best game. YEET!

Never get’s boring. This game is great because it has a lot of paths that you can take and it also makes the audience feel like they’re a game designer. All and all, Definitely worth the money

Great except for infrequent crashes. I really enjoy this game except for the fact the game crashes every so often. Thanks to the games auto save feature it doesn’t mean you lose progress that much, but it is definitely annoying.

Worth It. I know the price looks steep, but for what you get it is worth it. J bought this game twice once on PC and again for my iPhone and it is still one of the best games I have had the pleasure of playing. It may not be the best but for someone just looking to do something in their down time this is the game for you, it has tons of things to go and is something you can replay many times this game is certainly worth it. 11/10

This game is so fun, has many options and choices, but it’s not too complex. I love game dev tycoon. It’s fun to play and tis not too complicated to understand all the features.

What a great game. I love this, it’s simple enough to start out, but with skill trees etc that unfold in a manner that keeps you guessing. Really enjoyable and good length of game, long enough to be enthralling, short enough to make you think, ‘I’ll just develop one more game...’

Exactly what I wanted. I purchased this game on steam within the month it came out and I was not disappointed. It was so good that I bought it for my phone and I’m still not disappointed. If you’re reading this and considering buying the game. Do it, it’s a brilliant simulator that makes you think. Support the team so we can see more great mobile games 👍🏻

Great game but not working. Great game, love playing it but the last update doesn’t allow me to open and play the game at all. The game starts and gets half way through the load screen then crashes. Please fix as I want to keep playing, would be 5 starts apart from not opening.

Quite enjoyable. A few things tho: add the ability to lease out a game engine to other studios, and when in the seperate development stages, let employees who haven’t been given a task simply support the ones with to much work...

Great Game. Game is always fun to play and interesting to see the different outcomes. I like the fact that once you buy the game you get everything and there isn’t any pay2win, free rewards for sharing, and other unfair advantages. One problem I do have is that the game needs more variety in events so that everything isn’t too predictable. Very satisfied with my purchase :)

So happy this made the jump to mobile. Game was already one of my favourites always thought this would work well as a mobile fan if it could avoid micro-transactions

Extremely Fun and Addictive. Would Recommend!!. Hard to stop playing this game, very well designed and fun. Love it!

Purely AMAZING!. I can’t stop playing this amazing game and I only got it today I would seriously recommend it to anyone who loves playing literally any type of game

Spectacular on older devices. I have a iPad Air (1), and was worried when I purchased the game, but I have not had any problems with this well written game.

Enjoyable. I find the mechanics of the game work really well for a new developer team. The way that the modulation if the elements in the game actually effect the games ratings is really cool and interesting. Honestly 10 out of 10 would recommend.

Heaps of Fun - Really Well Designed!!. I have played the pc version and iOS version and this is a better experience. Keep up the good work guys, can’t wait to see what else you guys come out with.

Awesome! Highly recommend!!. This game is very fun. I heard of it from a friend and have been in awe since. It is definitely a hidden gem on the App Store. It allows you to create games in a dynamic world, very much replicates the real market. I love how much you have determine when making your company’s games! This is now, without a doubt, one of my favourite mobile games!

The other part is great. I love how this game can be like life sometimes it is the part of our fun that we don’t always see

Love it. Really well done, out of all the game dev tycoons out there this is definitely the better one. Great job for your first game and I can’t wait to see your next games

Incredible. This game was and still is my favourite game on pc and now on my phone! This game was so well made and was exactly what I would like in a game... about making games! This idea was so creative and a original Thanks

Amazing. I absolutely love it. Love the game. Totally recommend buying it. Worth the money. The only thing that puts me off a bit is that ther is no way of getting loans except when you are close to being bankrupt. Also it would be amazing if you can skip through the game rating so I don’t have to wait for th encumbered to settle.

From PC to everywhere. I have to say I never put up a review before, but for this game, I just must. I’ve played hours of this game on steam and now I’m playing it on ios. The new UI is refreshing and add a little layer of challenge since I got used to the slider bar in the old UI. It also looks much cleaner here. Overall 10/10 nuff said.

worth it !!!. this game is a steal i love it

Fun. Sweet. Tactical.. A classic. Ports well to mobile. Love it🍎

Best tycoon game. This game was the best tycoon game I’ve ever played.

Long time coming, worth the wait. Years later, I still love picking up this game after a break. Fantastic port. I’ve been fan of this game for a long time on pc/Mac and still play one of the mobile games that inspired Game Dev Tycoon. I’m thrilled that this is now on iOS and appreciate the fact that they took their time to really deliver and to not disappoint in optimizing for mobile.

❤️. Played this on my boyfriends phone and had to buy it for myself on mine I got so addicted so fast, amazing for a first game absolutely amazing

Update. Make it so you can update games

Very good game. My only problem is frequent crashes when opening the app

Refund. Please can I get a refund? I accidentally downloaded thinking it was free. Any help would be appreciated

Great Start!. I really enjoy this game and the nuance it offers. A great offline game and I love that there are no micro-transactions! Would love if there was a bit more description on what some of the development options are so I know what all the things mean - especially during the sliders phase. Great work!

Amazing. Insanely fun and worth the price. Hard at the start, but very rewarding when you get to the point where you can get a lot of money.

Flawless Port, Amazing Game. If you have any interest in the games industry you will love this game, perfect for mobile games on the go

Very nice!. Is my fav game on steam, I was overjoyed to see it be on mobile. I will be honest, I was hesitant to buy yet as I would be playing in a smaller SE screen, but I am glad I took the leap! The controls translate work very well in this, with no need to use I stylus to click menu items. It’s great that there are no in app purchases, and I like that the knowledge from the pc version can be used here as well. Thanks!

Un jeu qui en valut la peine!. Depuis des années je n’arrête pas de revenir a ce magnifique jeu. Il es court et réussi a être captivent du début a la fin!!!!

Amazing. This game is really fun and I have had a lot of good times watching it

Bin Material. Absolutely trash, I wasted 6.99 on this, wow

Great Game. Highly recommend and extremely fun!

Endless entertainment. I never give reviews but this is such a great game I’ve been playing this on and off since it came out I even watched a ton on YouTube before it was ported to mobile this is an excellent game perfect for gaming veterans it’s a surprisingly vast game for the platform would highly recommend

Amazing !. Really good idea and well executed! Love It! ! I had my first 10/10 on a game and it felt like a true achievement !

Es el mejor juego de la historia. Wow

Absolutely Loved it!. Great game. Hard to find games like these nowadays since a lot of company’s are penny pinchers and so it’s nice not to have to deal with pop ups saying GeT vIp PaSs Or BaD GaMe FoR yOu but after having being stressed about bankruptcy in this game I kinda see why. Keep making more games your doing a good job!

Great game got like 3 days ago a ton of content and worth the price. Game informer

I love it. It’s amazing

Needs difficulty settings. This is my favourite mobile game by far, but I can never get past PlayStation coming out. The farthest I’ve gotten was Xbox! I love this game sooo much I would like to see the full game. Please add difficulty settings!

Amazing !. This game is the best of all . I am myself a real life businessman and to relax I play this game . It’s not a easy game I have to say . It really start like you don’t know what you are doing and the game make you feel that way . Even if you are at the end of the game , you can still mange to fail. I love it , it’s similaire to the real life of business. You can have good moves making you rich but you can also be a failure with only one bad move and be bankrupt . I which they have more games like this one on phone and tablets. I wish they have garage managing , real estate, little shop etc etc or maybe all in one game and you can invest sell in all kind of business or choose to keep one . Starting at the bottom and become a wealthy businessman ! Anyway buy this game it worth it

Superbe jeu👍🏻. Les qdev sont des champions du jeu vidéo.

Love it. I really like this game, it is really fun

Classic. A genuinely good game from a genuinely good developer. This port is extremely well made and is easily one of my favourite mobile games now.

Super fun Tycoon Game. I love coffee inc but this is so much fun. Perfect for a rainy Sunday evening !!!!

Perfection. Perfect, just perfect. A game where you go through trial and error of creating games, I find this very entertaining. Worth the money, go for it.

I have an idea for a new game. If you read this thx My idea for your new game should be “Movie dev Tycoon” for the reason that jacksepticeye played this meaning it a good game I love playing this and wish there could be a sequel or a different dev game or YouTube tycoon or console tycoon If you make console tycoon you could match console tycoon with game dev tycoon to make a new game dev tycoon where you can make your own consoles to put your games on like Microsoft make their own games sometimes Anyways I love this game and hope you can read this

11 out of 10 Awesome like always. Been a big fun a while ago since it first published on PC, download form Steam and keep playing till today. Glad to see they make it available on mobile platform, like always, fun to play.

Best game. I love this game it’s fun it was hard at first now it’s super easy and fun great game

Good until you beat it. This game is addictive with a rollercoaster of ups and downs until you finally research everything and get the R and D lab and can make consoles and can’t get a 10 out of 10 anymore.

Amazing!. I was a big fan of this game on PC and I have been anticipating this launch for a long time. Great job guys!

awesome but... this game is amazing but... i feel like this game would benefit from a sandbox mode and different difficultys

W game. Worth 110%

Very good!. The game work wonder, and there isn’t any EA micro transactions!

Amazing!. This game is so fun on pc but on the go is so much better

👌😃😄❤️. Really fun game

This game is fun. This game is fun and it has such amazing replay value.

Top Notch. I played the PC version and I have been looking forward to the IOS port. They nailed it! It’s so refreshing to play on the go. There are no micro transactions which is a rare thing these days. I highly recommend this game.

More you play the worse it feels. Originally I played this game every day for hours, but after repeated failures and restarts you realize that you can’t really have your own way to win. The game becomes incredibly unforgiving of mistakes or learning procedures and penalizes you into bankruptcy. I had to look at guides in order to survive and prosper but that’s what ruins the game itself, that you have to follow an EXACT strategy and an EXACT formula to win. Instead of feeling like your own studio you have to be GDT’s idea of one in order to win. And even then you run out of time before you can do your own thing or feel like you’re in control. It has the potential to be really good but doesn’t grip the idea of what a Tycoon is.

Como diamantes. Perfeto

Very Good. I played this game for a while and it’s really fun.

Note. Its just too expensive for what it is so 3/5

Really Fun!. I’ll be honestly... can’t put it down! I’m having a lot of fun. I think it’s a nice touch that the developers say thank you during early gameplay

The best simulator ever I want to see more from this company. This game is the best for times when you have no wifi

This Game is always a classic. I’ve had about 3 accounts from losing them. But that does not change the fact I gotta get this game on my device. The idea is simple yet it’s not. Would recommend to people who love tycoons/simulators, and to those who want to kill time. 5/5 Worth the money. Would buy again lol

Not good. Arcade feel I don’t like that and way to hard

My games are popular!. My games are deep

Really cool Game. When I first got this game my first couple all went bankrupt very quickly so I deleted it. I downloaded it again and started to like it a lot more. There is a ton of different things you can do and it really makes you feel like you are a game developer. My one and only problem with the game is that is extremely overwhelming to me. I understand that that is what it is really like to own a business but as someone who just wanted to play a mobile game it’s pretty complicated. But other than that the game is very fun and can tell the developers put a lot of time and effort into it.

Amazing. This is the greatest mobile game i’ve ever played. For starters, It’s not pay to play like so many other games out there. I do have a few suggestions. For example, there could be an online mode where you and your friend’s companies could compete for supremacy. Also, there could be a feature where you would compete with other games. Maybe develop arcade/pinball machines? Oh well. Keep up the good work! A 9-year-old gamer

Amazing!. This was surprising, to say the least. I stumbled upon this in my search to find a nice game for IOS that wouldn’t bore me almost immediately, and I fell in love right away with this little gem. The concept is so simple, and yet I can’t help but get sucked into the process of creating games and catering to the mass’ interests. It isn’t easy, either—you have to pay attention and make your choices wisely so you get a better rating. Anything below five, and you lose fans. So many new concepts that can be discovered each time you level up. It’s almost like if you were a famous game developer! Really great job on this, I’m enjoying it a lot.

I love this game it would be cool if they add OS for are Consols. I got idea for you it is to Make OS to our own Console that would be Very cool it’s OK don’t pick it. I have an lots of fun with your game. I would like to see Computers added next that we can make . I would really like it if you add an option where we could design our own controller or A console Plus the option of a computer Do we make it feel like it’s your own console. I would also like a more updated design for the new consoles and some naming fixes.

Excellent but there missing some consoles and please add more features in. This Game is great and fun and a bit addicting but me and some people are wondering where are the other systems. The game should’ve start in 1977 because that’s when the Atari 2600 was released and add in the Intelevision and Coleovision. Then 1989 add the original Sega Genesis model and the TurboGrafix 16 in. Sega Saturn, Atari Jaguar and other obscure systems should be in the game. Add some more features in like a cancellation a game button and a precise option to which controller works for the game, like for the NES (TES) add an option in which controller works better. The Controller or The Zapper. Thank you for reading this review.

Wish you Could Add More. This game is great. You ported this from PC perfectly. I was going to get Game Dev Story, the game this game was based on, but this released and I was happy. But I wish that you could add more. I know there are a bunch of new things in this game from the PC version, but I still beat everything in the game in like 1-3 days. I was thinking you could port some of the best mods from PC to the mobile edition. Maybe you could just add mods into the game somehow. If only you could do something like this, I’d rate 5 stars. The way you edited the game so it works for mobile is great. I love this. I hope you respond.

Better than expected!. This game has far surpassed what I thought possible. It’s engaging, entertaining, and straight up frustrating at times! (In a good way! I can’t believe an app can be so challenging!) That being said, there are a few adjustments I would appreciate. For one, you can’t name your own games, it’s always just #1,2,etc. Some additional labeling would help as well, such as the game engines you create. They are always labeled as “game engine #1” rather than “graphics game engine”. It’s mostly the little stuff. Besides that, this game packs a punch! I am thoroughly impressed and look forward to future projects.

Love the game but saves are broken. I love this game and have been playing it for years off and on. I was really excited to hear it was ported to iOS. However, theres a massive flaw where the game corrupts save files. 1 out of 5 times when I save in a game, leave, and come back to that file I’ll have a completely different company name, my character has been randomized, I’ll be set back to the first level, and my guy will be in the middle of making a completely random game with topics i haven’t unlocked. Literally nothing is the same as I last saved. I’ve tried new save files and reinstalling the game, but nothing works. I really hope this is fixed soon because I love the game but can’t keep playing it if my save states are randomized every other time I open the app.

Just found this on the store. I’d first gotten this game on Steam around like 8 years ago. I’d always played console games or faster paced stuff but on a PC, WoW and such, but I like how casual this is and I can just play it a couple hours and be able to make it to a goal, then log off to pick up again later. I just discovered this a couple days ago on the store and immediately bought it because I only have a phone and not a pc anyway. Still fun as I remember.

I Played for Days. This is probably the first mobile game that I’ve reviewed that I truly could not put down. I played it for five hours in the first session. I’m not exactly a gamer myself, but I loved exploring the nuances of what makes a successful game: timing, marketing, knowing your audience and genre, and more. I like that the game touches on social issues such as piracy and illegal fan games. This is probably the most fun I’ve ever had learning about what it takes to be great in an industry. And no ads or in app purchases. It’s just a great game!

It’s great, but I can’t play it anymore. I really love this game and have spent an awful lot of hours on it. The only problem is that I’ve encountered a glitch that won’t allow me to start a new save game. Every time I start up the game it reverts back to an old save, even if I have started a new one. I’ve deleted the game and redownloaded it, but it always puts me back at the old save and deleted my new one. Even if I progress with the old save, it will still revert back to the original time I started when I start it up again. I hope they fix this because I truly enjoy this game.

Fantastic, Addictive. This game really demands your attention, as to figure out what works and what doesn’t takes a while to figure out (unless you use a wiki, then its a cakewalk) but whether you play it and fail or skate through the game like its nothing, it’s difficult to tear your attention away for a moment. The feeling of progression is satisfying, the challenge of making that perfect game really sets you on edge as the review scores roll in, and moving into a new area in the game feels like a true shift of events. As soon as you start, you won’t wanna stop. And when you do all there is to do, you’ll want to start over, just to relive it all again.

WOULD LOVE AN UPDATE!!!. I’ve been playing this game for a few now, I’ve even uninstalled and installed like 4 times now. Never have written a review before in my life but this game deserves it. This would be a 5 star review if there were a few more updates like for example more quests for the main story. Maybe more crazy offices to unlock for crazy prices! As for the game developing slider, I find my self always using the same lay out for most of the games. This game would be perfect if the development slider was a bit more updated

Fun game, but overhyped and disappointing. I bought this because the ratings were so high. A 4.9 rated game??! Wow, must be awesome. But, that rating made me expect way too much. In the end, I found it very unpolished and simple. I played through it a few times, but often I was frustrated by lack of functionality. Just simple things like descriptions would be nice (like what is ‘video playback’? What is an ‘abstract’ game? Are research skills useful for staff to have?). Another frustrating part was not having a history of actions, reports, and outcomes. Some of the constraints are silly. Like, why can’t I hire more than 6 people? Why can’t I be developing two games at once? Why do I need ‘research points’ to train my staff? And, some functionality just doesn’t work. Like, why does spending $100K on recruitment yield the same quality staff as spending $2M? Also, the time goes by too quickly making some decisions useless. For example, don’t try to target consoles because they often disappear from the market before you can finish a game. All in all, a fun game for a couple days. But, it lacked the sophistication, complexity, and polish to give it much replay value for me.

One of the best. So glad I waited for the iOS release! Great progression and challenge--after coming back from bankruptcy 5 or 6 times, it was such a rush to release a surprise perfect score game that literally saved my company! This game is as enjoyable as Kairosoft's older model, but with more depth. You can do it all--make great games with quirky combinations, create your own console, MMO, convention, even your own version of Steam! If you go the Steam route, btw, I highly recommend this over Mad Games Tycoon which has similar depth but nothing but headache. If you're into these types of sims, Game Dev has a lot of heart!

Best Game Ever.. I played this game for more than 10 months and it’s been the best game I’ve downloaded on my phone yet. I really enjoyed playing this game throughout and seeing the changes from the regular mode and pirate mode. And the twist from it was really great. I hope you guys make more games just like this or even better for the gaming community to enjoy!! This game is 5 Stars throughout. I’ve studied this game so much that I came up with my own perfect sliders 😂!! I really recommend this game to be downloaded on everybody phone!!!! It’s not a disappointment!!!

Even better than the PC version. This game is great. Sure the graphics are simplistic, but that does not take away from the gameplay at all. If you don’t have an interest in game development then you may not love the game, but personally it is one of my favorites. I appreciate that they didn’t try to make the mobile version cheap, so many of the games coming out on the phone are half assed or try to leech money from their users. This group took an already great PC game and improved upon the lacking areas. This version is even better than the original. Great job dev team, you rock!

Honestly love this game. I named my company micro transactions.. This game costs money, but I promise it is worth it. I’m a gamer at heart and seeing the process even if it is a small window is exciting to me. I think this idea is fresh, concept is solid, and over all is a great game. I have no regrets spending the money. If these game devs make anymore games I’ll be first to check it out. Also I named my company micro transactions. Ps Dear game developer, consider moving this game or something like this game to the console platforms. I only hope to see you all grow. Sincerely Tanto

I am ADDICTED to this game. I have played it to the “end” - and way past it - about 6 times. In fact, one of my minor quibbles is that you get scored when you get to year 35, but there’s still so much to do that there’s no way you could do a decent AAA or MMO game by that time, since you have to balance research points between building a better engine and developing your staff. To get to these points I’ve played another 10-40 years in various games (less as I get smarter about how to build my team) and I’d like a second score at year 60or 70. Nonetheless, the timing of the added complexity is brilliant and this is one of the best games I’ve ever played on an iPad.

Been playing this game since before going to Steam. This is easily one of the best games to have been developed and genuinely withstands the test of time. No matter which platform you pick this game excels on it. My only gripe is that the interface is a bit small on a standard iPhone 12. Would love pinch to zoom so we can scale the interface to our preference or a slider in the settings (or auto scale for the larger screen and more compact pixels). Minor but would be nice, it really doesn’t take away from the game though. I’m glad I purchased this game way back in the day. Have not been disappointed and worth reinvesting into on different platforms.

All Games: Played it for days. This game is amazing, and I’m surprised that this isn’t on the top 10 paid apps, but this game needs some fixes and additions, 1: this game is really grindy and fries my brain after play for an hour as well as difficult, it would be nice if there was an Infinite money/ research mode, (Sandbox/etc also, took 2 tries to get the upgraded building. 2: The star rating system is messed up, really badly, I’ll get a 6 star rating, but technically, I only got a 3 star rating, maybe improve the rating system (ex. 2.5 instead of 5 stars), if you don’t understand what I’m saying, it’s that the rating says it’s 10, but it’s actually only 5 stars Thanks for listening to me rant -Random Person

This game is great. This game is really fun. It shows you the challenge of making games and getting a good review score. Although, I do think the algorithm for making a game is weird. It is also really hard to make a good game. This game also turned out to have an ending which I didn't know. After a while, the game loses it steam, and it gets frustrating when you have to pay the bank. Although. I think this game is be of the best I've played though, because of how you have to think about what factors go into what genre of game, and when you get a 10/10, the accomplishment is beautiful.

Probably one of the best games on iPhone.. This is my second time buying this fantastic game (after putting in like 20 hours on PC) and I've just gotta say, you boys nailed it again. The additions of pirate mode, the new topics, the redesigned UI, all of it is just icing on top of an already amazing game, and the fact that I can take it with me everywhere is just phenomenal. I really hope you end up making a sequel with a whole bunch of new gameplay additions and refinements- I'll buy it day one when you do, on whatever you release it on. Thanks for the awesome (far too addictive) game.

One of the better games on the AppStore. I thoroughly enjoyed this game from start to finish (at least with my first company on 32 years). I enjoyed watching play throughs and let’s plays and tutorials of this game when it was PC only and now that it has a well designed and thought out mobile version I’m extremely happy. One of the better purchases I’ve made this year. A few suggested I’d like to make is 1. When you research all topics available can you grey out or remove the option to even bring up that sub menu in your research tab? 2. Potential mod support for extra consoles, random events, extra features etc. 3. Updates on the Wiki since that really helped me not go bankrupt a lot but a lot of the newer topics weren’t on there and certain things weren’t correct (for example it said Ninja/Strategy was a + combo but in reality the game said it was a --) Even without those the game is overall wonderful and I’d recommend to many friends. Thanks for making such a great game

Has so much potential. I loved this game. It has enough difficulty to keep you playing but not too much that it discourages you. It has a lot of different elements that keep you entertained and that you need to consider. That being said, I have issues with it. I don't think it’s worth 5 dollars. I finished “the game” in a day. You can keep playing and you still have option for game topics, publishing deals and such but once you know no more consoles are coming or challenges it kind of becomes pointless. I almost wanted to take another star off but it was so well thought out that I couldn't. I just wish they could make the game longer.

Delightful. This game is absolutely worth the money. I’m not even through my first “career” and I already want to start over with all of the awesome things I learned the first time around. It allows you to fail, but teaches you each time, which means the next time, when you succeed, it feels all the more gratifying, because you feel like you really earned it. Add to that the ever-expanding options and challenges, and this is a game that will keep you entertained for a lot longer than you might think. Well done, developers.

Some Suggestions. Just finished the game, it was really fun and it deserves a 5 star. I would like to submit some few suggestions that would improve your game. My thoughts are that a Versus mode between two players would be really fun and would make lots more people play this game. It would work like this, the first one to go bankrupt loses, and at the end you compare each person’s game’s ratings to see who made better games. Just a suggestion. Thanks, okayreviewer78

Surprisingly addictive, the perfect game for iPhone. I’m only a few hours in, but that’s a few hours more than I originally planned to play today—this game is surprisingly addictive, and it honestly feels like it was made for mobile devices first and foremost, in a good way. I haven’t had any bugs so far, graphics are simple but pleasing, the gameplay loop is really fun, and the first 10/10 you get on a game is so satisfying. Highly recommend, this game is only $5 but I would have easily paid $10-$15 if I knew how good it was. Give it a shot!

Almost Perfect. This game has made many moments “not boring” and I generally love it but I feel like there could be more features to it like being able to re-master or port your game to new consoles or consoles you didn’t make for, being able to make games for more consoles, being able to fully customize your custom console, being able to have a bigger team of programmers, being able to make a re-design of your custom console, and just adding more topics and genres. I hope all or most of these features get added into the game in the future or in a sequel to the game.

Awesome Devs Please Read!. This game is amazing, I’ve been playing it for a couple weeks now to see what score I can get each time. I haven’t played Pirate Mode yet but if what I’m going to suggest is in it already then great! If possible could you implement a point where the player can decide what price each unit sells for? It would add another layer of depth as well as some strategy. It could be used for units of developed games as well as consoles, the price would be set already for publishing contracts and could be as well until you move out of your garage.

A Fantastic Game, by Humble Devs. I purchase this game on my computer when it was first created, and fell in love with the simple gameplay, but extremely complex and rewarding ways to play. It’s seemingly endless options for development make it a game that peaks in replay-ability. The iOS version took the original, and expanded on it, and brought an easy to use and artistically pleasing UI and improvements to the system. The Dev team behind this game is extremely friendly, and puts a lot of effort into its fans. Is this game worth the price? In my opinion, yes. It’s fun, it’s simple, but provides a great deal of choice making each play-through unique and exciting.

Fun, Auto-Save slot is constantly corrupted. I love this game, it has been one of my favorite for a while. But there is one HUGE problem. The auto-save slot is corrupted. It is currently holding a save that I had that was in the 2nd stage of the game (after the first location upgrade from the garage). I started a new game and whenever I open the app I lose everything I did between the last time I manually saved and when I closed the app. Occasionally the last manual save I did also disappears and set me back hours of progress. Please fix this issue. I love this game, but this one problem makes the games extremely frustrating to play.

AMAZING. Game is really good I mean like good can’t even explain this game XD but there is some stuff I would really appreciate if you add them 1 a sandbox mode so new people can get and idea of the game without worrying about getting bankrupt 2 the ability to make your own gaming console like companies in the game would make gaming consoles and I think it would be cool if you could make your own 3 when you would randomize your character with the dice button it only does it with your character if you could make it also change you name and gaming company name and that’s all great game keep it up

A Great Game, Hard to Master but Enjoyable when you do Master it!. I LOVE this game!! I’ve watched videos about this game and have always wanted to get it! I got it today and have made some ok-great games. I love the different names in an attempt to not get copyrighted but I think the devs of this game would have done it anyway, copyright risk or not! Anyway I’m gonna get back to playing the game. I would play it! Great gameplay, the difficulty level might be discouraging at first but stick through it! You just might make that perfect game out of no where! Tally Ho Lads!

Amazing. Ok let me just say I am addicted to this game. Ok now for really just the best part. I was struggling I had (and still do have) one employee, we make alright games. Just about 5 mins before I start wring this review, I researched the game type Evolve. Me being me I could not come up with a good name, but eventually I decided on Evolve Dildos. Now let me just say I am no longer struggling... and it was rated a perfect 10 and was #1 on the top charts (apparently). Well let’s be honest though, I never got that before and now I can say that dildos have saved me. Just a mere mention of them— something I wasn’t going to do— saved my company Shitz and Gigglez.

Fun with a lot of replay value. I want to start by saying anyone who has posted a negative review about not understanding the game are simply lazy and shouldn’t be taken into consideration as a review. The tips and instructions are on screen and in the settings menu and I was able to figure how pretty quickly what I needed to do. With that out of the way, this game is a blast. I would gladly pay for new content or a sequel. My only complaint is that I wish the progression was slower and that there were a few more events. I’ve already replayed it 6 times and will probably continue to do so in the future. Thanks for a great game!

Great But.... I really have enjoyed this game. Some of the things I wish they would address would be in the engine development part. It doesn’t seem very well thought out and there is no way to compare old engines to the new one you develop. Needs more info on what’s going on. The timeline is pretty standard and if you have a general understanding of video game history you know what systems will work and which ones will fail, like The sega or commodore systems. Honestly it kinda gets repetitive with not much of a story or change to history. Though unlikely random events would be nice. It’s worth the money if your wanting to spend if not hopefully developers learn from their first game for their next. Really like the concept and how it’s put together.

Great port of a great game!. The PC version of this game is a great experience, that is very enjoyable, and this port makes the visuals and controls similar to the original version, while fitting the mobile space in an effective way. The push to put PC games onto the mobile market is one that could help casual gaming extremely in the future. The only addition I would recommend is adding a indicator of how important aspects of certain projects have more importance, although it’s not unlikely that this already exists and I couldn’t figure it out.

Amazing game about making games!. I rarely leave reviews, but hear me out on this one. I was originally planning on trying this on my MacOS but never was able to. When I saw that it became available for iOS, I gave it a try. After playing it for a couple of hours, I have to say that it seems very well constructed and the developers must have put good thought into it. Overall, I really enjoy the game as well as the references to events in game development history. I definitely would recommend it to anyway who is curious to give this game a try!

I lost days of progress. I’ve been playing this game for about 100 hours and I just lost all of my progress. It’s my favorite game and it’s the only one I play on my iPad, but I’m not even kidding I was on I think year 36 and it deleted everything, putting me on year 1. I’m really mad about this, I want to help this game in every way possible, but please fix this bug. Be like the developers in game and fix the bugs so people don’t say you are money hungry. I was on the brink of crying when I lost everything because I have done so well, with 6 employees all at 200k salary. (That’s really hard to do) all I want in life right now is for you to fix this bug. It happened when I made a new company on my phone and then it backed up to iCloud and put my best one on year 1.

awesome game!. i used to play a game similar to this on steam years ago and when i saw this i couldn’t help myself. i really enjoy the game, honestly, it’s beautiful. i’ve spent countless hours over the past couple days and i’ve beaten the game and continued to pile up money/fans. i’m trying to test all game types, topics, genres to get as much research as possible and it’s a blast. a couple suggestions: maybe i haven’t unlocked it yet or whatever but DLC would be a cool addition to the game allowing for longer support of a game.

A little refinement. First, excellent game. I haven’t done my years yet so I don’t know if it just ends and you start over or you’re just able to keep going until you want to start over. I would definitely prefer the latter. Two things I can think of that I would add if possible is being able to see what you put in to your current engine in order to see if you should make a new one if you’re just adding say cut scenes. Two I would add being able to see effort, employees, and what engine I used on all previous games. A lot of guessing in those aspects. Those things would help me plan better.

This game is rock. I have played this game for a long time on pc version and as soon as I saw this game in App Store I immediately bought it, it’s a great game and if you love simulation game you will love this game and it honestly could give you 10-20 hours of good time, there are 2 things that I wish this game could improve on is 1) make a playtime longer, more console and more game events. 2) I wish they could re-design a MMO feature to a subscription and micro transactions based instead of buy-to-play so that you could cover up a maintenance cost and produce more quality expansions

10/10. I was really hesitating when purchasing this game since I never have played it before. But let me tell you it’s absolutely worth 5 dollars. This game runs smoothly on my iPhone X and its well optimized. So far I'm still in the early stages and I simply can’t stop playing it. I’ve gone about 2 hours straight into the game and its so good. The massive content that I’ve seen in the early stages are incredible from making your own in game engine to having media coverage, it has so much to offer. I highly recommend this game to anyone and its worth the asking price.

Excellence, Relevance and Strategic. This game is top shelf! I was leery of investing $4.99 on it but I was hopeful that the return on my investment would be worthwhile for my entertainment needs, and it was! I appreciate that it isn’t littered with micro-transactions, it’s nice to sit back and enjoy a game without being pestered for $0.99 here and $1.99 there. The historical accuracy of the game was very enjoyable, albeit the system and developer names are changed for obvious reasons, it was still fun to watch as moves were made. It took me a few tries and some strategic moves as well, but I finally made it to the end of the game and was very happy to see I could keep playing afterward. I really don’t have any complaints about it, I’m sure there is room for improvement but I’m still exploring so we for now I’m satisfied. “Xterra Reform is #1 thanks to our early success with our Gameling system releases and our signature series Skullz (Punk genre)!” Love the game!

Fun as Ever. I’ve had the original Game Dev Tycoon for years now and coming to mobile was a great idea. It’s just like the original with a bit more polish and updated to include newer consoles. If there’s one thing that bothers me is that it’s hard to tell what went wrong with a game, I think if you were able to see where you used your time (ex. Engine, Gameplay, & Story/Quests) when looking at previous games to see if you managed it well or not. Other than that, this is easily the best tycoon game I’ve played and works perfectly on mobile. Excited to see what’s next!

Game On!- Review. Simulation games have interestingly grown in recent years, and since the day this game was released years ago- I’ve been a fan! It’s a gem of a game that deserves love on any platform for any game enthusiast, and fits almost perfectly on to this platform. I was expecting some hiccups to appear during gameplay as I experienced on the PC, but I was surprised! Running smoother, and naturally to mobile devices: It’s worth the small price for a game that anyone can easily get their monies worth. That being said, game on and enjoy being a game dev tycoon!

Absolutely a 10!. This is just the type of tycoon style of game I have been searching for months for and AT LAST! A developer who finally has gotten it right! I have always been a big fan of the “rags to riches - build your empire from scratch” kind of gameplay and this game hits all marks! Unlike a lot of tycoon games for iOS that I have sampled, this game sets the bar very high in gameplay, strategy, planning, developing and executing the best games to rise to the top! I just started playing it tonight and can’t get enough of it! If you don’t believe me, try it out for yourself!! In the meantime, I have a game development empire to build!!

Great Simulation Game. This tycoon involves more than just tapping a button like the rest of the tycoons on mobile. Overall it is a great game but here’s some of my suggestions for the developers. Adding multi genre games would be something i would like to see. Also make it a little easier for AAA games to get higher ratings. Medium and Large games are really the only way to get 9.5+ ratings near the end of the game. Also the genres should be a little more balanced, Some genres are even useable. Sci fi and fantasy seem to dominate all others.

I am loving this game !!!!. I just got this game last night and I love it when you make a hit game and everything yoh worked for comes true but I only have one problem so I have gotten a loan from the bank a couple of times now and I wan when you make a game and you have a loan that some of the money would go to the bank because I hate that you have too pay it all at one time because I had to restart inleast 9 times because I went bankrupt but besides that I’ve gotten pretty good at the game and I love it with all of my heart and I hope this bank problem will get changed soon or something and the game is definitely worth the money !!!
