Reviews for "Tycoonist"
Lacking
The concept was well placed, but there was some features that would have made this game alot better.
For example, what if I wanted to pile all of my money on turn 1 (or even worse turn 10) into Neostock. I would be forced to click on the "buy 10" button for several minutes. A easy feature would have been to open a dialog box asking the user how much of the stock they would like to buy (The same complaint for selling).
Also a report at the end of the turn about how much you made/lost would have been nice as well.
While the setting was diffrent I found myself compareing this game to Drug Wars. Which seemed to have very similar gameplay and graphics, but had a great deal more polish.
B for effort, D for execution.
Nice idea, but not very well done. This needs a remake. Yes it is annoying that you can only buy 10 at once, it is bad that there are only three tradable commodities, and that most of the businesses and such like you can buy don't actually increase your income nor fluctatuate in price so they are a little pointless.
gets boring fast once you realise that things you buy out of the bottom three bracket is sorta pointless
Too complex
The instructions are mountains of text, which I don't feel the need to read. Try to concentrate the instuctions into a few lines. The game itself has no real focal point, there isn't any pretty pictures to focus on or tell me that I'm winning or losing. It feels like I'm mashing random keys on my calculator because I'm bored in my math class. Add some pictures or jokes, or anything to break up the game.
