“This game is remarkable and detailed. I have played it for hours consecutively, starting over and over just to find the optimal startup. The customization of settings makes it enjoyable to play on repeat. Highly recommend.”

“The game does not work well. It quickly becomes pointless and repetitive.”

“It's a nice concept, but it badly lacks content, the balance is weird and the game does absolutely nothing to explain why things are not going the way you expect. I couldn't progress. I didn't find a way to make a good profit and mantain my CEO ratings. Not for me.”
