Fun but…It is fun to pretend, however this game needs some attention. I have the best possible staff, a couple of them should be able to have their role changed to a hardware engineer but I cannot change it. I cannot develop my own console because of it. There is another game dev game out there that I recommend you take some notes from, Game Dev Tycoon. I honestly love most pieces of your game, but it is as if you forgot to finish making it before you released it. In certain menus there are just blank spaces that one can highlight but not select anything. It’s weird. I passed the 20th year and that’s just it? No more progression? Come on man!.Version: 2.39

Pretty enjoyableSo many different choices it’s cool to see what sells..Version: 3.06

Sa addictive!!!I can’t stop playing.Version: 3.06

Great gameThis really does give a better appreciation for how hard it is to create a good game. I love the style and thought process that went into this game. The only thing I wish it had was a better explanation of the different jobs. Maybe that’s an Easter egg to figure out that if you max out each job on one person it will unlock the hacker. Also I wish there was a way to increase max energy, first play through I didn’t fire anyone because the first people I got worked to make the company so big, but I could only get in the hall of fame. Training only gets you so far on dev points, and from the wiki it looks like different jobs give different development points. That being said I found this game addicting with a brush of nostalgia as i saw the game companies and their hardware changed to clever puns. I laughed at the Nintendo whoops. I’m glad the devs made this game with their flair and a high level of care. Cheers and thanks for reading.Version: 2.39

Hilarious, brilliant gameplay and LOVE the graphicsMy favourite mobile game I’ve ever played!! Only found it yesterday and just couldn’t put it down. Love the graphics, the gameplay, the characters, THE NAMES! Everything is spot on. It was a bit overwhelming at first, trying to figure out all the buttons and how to name the games but a couple plays in I got in the rhythm and completed my first play through within 12 hours! I can’t wait to start a new gameplay and try to beat my high score. Love love love this game!!.Version: 3.06

Unputdownable!I have played this game since this little gem came bundle in an IndieGala package more than a decade ago on Steam. The app version is everything I remember and just as thrilling as it was when I first discovered it! If you like idle clickers and infinite replayability - forget about looking anywhere else. Best in slot. Hands down! I have played it around 12 hours straight (give or take) since I downloaded it and am still having difficulty putting it down. Even this long review is annoying me to write as it is taking me away from the game. That’s meant as a compliment by the way haha.Version: 3.05

So addictiveI downloaded this at 6pm yesterday , it is now 4pm the next day. I have not stopped playing it, soooo funn and addictive. You have found the perfect balance between keeping the game simple yet detailed. Love ittt. One thing I wish is for it to continue to become bigger, and have a multistory office, creating games, consoles etc. also , there needs to be more option to changing interior as opposed to just the Bananas that come once a week. Another thing, I think more can be done in terms of the Staff - I found that I kept getting the same applicants from the 3.5mil job advert, which is bit annoying, i wanted to upgrade all my staff to be top notch but couldn’t do so..Version: 3.03

AmazingSuper addicting.Version: 3.06

A great, fun game that addicts!Loved this game. You are set up as a small game development studio and then start to build games. You choose format, but new formats have expensive dev kits so you have to sell lots of games and work your way up. You hire people, you choose the format, the scenario and much more. Loved playing - would love to see more options in a future release???.Version: 2.36

I really like this gameI’m very addicted to the feeling I get when I make a lot of in game bux.Version: 3.06

I Want to Love It…So, to start off, I’m not sure how many know this, but this is a really old game. Like, late 90s old. I’m happy to see it in Arcade with its many, many expansions. As my title states, I want to love this game, but what stops me is the absolutely ludicrous license prices for new platforms. I’m in year 18 and I can’t afford a single license. Maybe I didn’t play properly and used too much of my money, but that shouldn’t essentially break the game long game. I have about $20k in my bank and the closest license is $25k, but it’s a 10 year old platform so it’s about to be discontinued. The next closest is $50k. It just zaps the fun out of it for me..Version: 2.31

Fun, addictive and DifficultLove this game. Have lost many hours playing. Attaining the top prizes isn’t easy. Concentrate on genres and aim for 200+ using bonuses..Version: 2.39

Great game with 1 simple flawEnjoyed the game a lot BUT the results given for everything are random. For eg say you got a low 13 in the writing scenario, then just load up previous save and the results will be different. You can easily get to the 3rd studio by year 4 this way.Version: 3.06

AmazingLove it! I had a lot of fun!.Version: 2.39

Good but needs workLol this game is awesome just won the grand prize finally now going to try and figure out creating my own system. I’m not sure how big my staff can be yet but if the max is only 8 then that needs to improve. Also I wish I could see more than 32 previous games maybe favorite one or something to revisit the idea on another system or different timing. The previous games I would also like to be able to click on and see what my combination was. There’s a lot of combinations which is awesome and it will tell you at the bottom if it’s a good combo although that doesn’t matter so much if you have a big enough company because basically anything you put out will be a hit just can’t continue to make bad games. The sequel functionality is pretty awesome as well..Version: 3.06

Too addictiveVery good, but accidentally stayed up until 4am playing.Version: 3.06

It greatIt’s amazing! it’s just the only thing i’d there is so many ads without premium. but it’s amazing over all..Version: 2.31

Such a Good Game!I’ve been playing this game for years off and on and I never get sick of it! Would recommend for anyone!.Version: 3.06

Super addictive gameI have been playing this game for a couple of days now and I’ve been hooked ever since. Really easy to play and fun would definitely recommend..Version: 3.01

Addicting and funSurprisingly cute and fun. quite addicting too.Version: 3.06

Very addictiveGreat game. Awesome pacing.Version: 3.06

This is so goodLet’s you customize most with a couple buttons and walks you through others.Version: 2.31

Play this game and you will find it hard to put downI installed as I seen this game around for years and just passed over it. As it’s now part of arcade what you got to loose? Only a few hours of fun… and I’m still going.Version: 2.31

Probably one of the best mobile gamesI remember playing this years and years ago, so playing again now was lovely. Such a satisfying game and years ahead of all these rubbish clicker games that exist now.Version: 2.39

Too addicting please send helpHoly moly guacamole, I can’t stop playing this I need help. It’s just too good of a game..Version: 3.06

AddictiveThe game is crazy rewarding if you get the grand prize before year 20. You can start a new game and keep previous points to try and beat the previous score or you can keep going and increase capital..Version: 2.42

Is a lot of funGreat port..Version: 2.42

Addictive!I love this game for passing the time. Always easy to pick up from where you left off. I just wish we could have bigger offices and more customisation here but I guess it is an arcade game! Excellent!.Version: 2.42

Fun Game but confusingIncredibly fun management sim but you may hit a point where you wish there was a little more explanation on how to progress.Version: 3.06

Lots of FunI really enjoyed this game, played through it twice. It does however feel a little short. All in all would Recommend though..Version: 2.39

Great funPlayed this years ago as a kid and got it again when I found it onArcade. Love playing it. Only wish they had added more offices and more ways to progress.Version: 2.42

GreatThvx.Version: 2.42

Sleepless nightsI don’t think i’ve put my phone down since i got this simple but addictive little game, very impressed and the nice little theme really keeps me going as i mix up genres and game types. 10/10 IGN would rate again.Version: 2.42

A classicNothing quite hits like making weird game combinations.Version: 2.42

Great gameAbsolutely love it.Version: 3.06

So fun!Great pass time and super addictive! Wicked job to the creators!.Version: 3.06

AmazingSince I’ve downloaded this games I’ve been hooked it’s so fun and easy to use. You can make games or just do contract games. This game is well worth the download and you have no reason not because it’s free on Apple Arcade. This game is nothing short of five stars..Version: 2.42

Blast from the PastI remember this being one of the first games I bought on my iPod back in the day and it’s amazing how it still has the exact same captivating but simple gameplay as it did 10 years ago! I’m hooked once again and am glad they’ve re released it. It’s perfectly designed for what it is and keeps you hooked for a while!.Version: 3.00

Great game worth a play through!I have been addicted to this game for a while now, just won a GOTY (game of the year) while playing! I just wish there was a little more content as it can get a little repetitive towards the end of the game(around year 16) also there are a lot of hidden stats and caps on employees I wish I could see better so I knew how to maximize my profits even more! Thankfully there is a wiki and more online to try to help with that but overall it’s a very simple game but can get equally complex the more you play and try to get everything in the game. Definitely worth a play through at least once to the 20 year mark but I’ve been replaying it a lot just to try to get my achievements and secret characters!.Version: 3.06

Amazing, just one problem(This is my first time making a review, so stick with me. Ok?) this game is great, the basic idea is that you choose a type and genre. Then you get points in: fun, creativity, graphics, and sound. And then there is hiring, salaries, and awards, so it has a lot of business sin type stuff in it. But my only problem is the game of the year award, I have made a lot of games with high points in all the categories and hade a perfect 40 critic review, and I still didn’t get it, please make it easier. Other than that, the game’s amazing..Version: 3.06

This is AWESOME!You must get this game so much! I have always liked, to think, about myself developing video games, and I was searching through Apple Arcade, when I was bored, and I saw this game, looked at the rating and review, is said “ok, let’s try this game”. And when I played this game, at first I was confused, but then I got better, the problem is sometime it never saves your progress, which was sad 😢, but I just started over. I don’t know where to find an engineer, and I looked through the whole hiring things, but couldn’t find one. Thanks for this game. CorriganPlayz In geometry dash, my account name is Carnado! Bye!.Version: 3.05

Love themIt would be better if we could have the option to type to sigh in to our account.Version: 2.31

Really addictiveI started playing this because my friend was playing it and got hooked to it, and I just can’t get enough. Game is a dopamine dope fest. Is well made, if I had a qualm with it, it would be that I hate having to wait while the game tallies up the boost points and related, it just a slog and there’s no way to skip it..Version: 3.01

Great gameI started playing this thinking it’s something I’ll maybe have some fun with for a day or two but I found that it’s probably one of my favorite mo ole games out there. It has tons of stuff to go through in the campaign with jobs and making games, marketing, hiring and so on. The only problem was that after year 20 it ends you can keep playing but no new content. I just wish there was a bit more because I was done in a few days which didn’t stop me from replaying it but overall a solid experience!.Version: 2.36

Everyone Loved It!I remember playing this game when it first came out and staying up a couple of nights in a row because I couldn’t stop. It’s so straightforward but deep in its tactics and has a great combination of graft and reward. Coming back to it on Apple Arcade years later I fell in love with it again. (I’ve played and enjoyed a few other Kairo games, but this one still has a special place in my heart). Everything that made it great in the first place is still there, and it’s been spruced up and sharpened in terms of text input, etc. for the new generation. If you’ve not played this before, you must..Version: 2.39

Solid Fun Game been playing for hoursThe game is fun and casual. I work at a software company so this is an entertaining simulation on running a gaming studio. I hope they continue to build out the game. They could add a lot more such as M&E and the pros and cons that go with it. Decision to go public or entertain a VC to raise more capital and how much of your business you trade away. More types of technical talent such as a product engineer which could decrease the amount of bugs and improve the fun factor etc. Overall great game and hope to see t it continue to develop..Version: 3.06

Why is this game so addictive?Well there goes my Saturday but I feel like I’ve accomplished something!.Version: 2.42

Just like being a real game devSuper fun and addicting game - gotta win that Grand Prize!.Version: 2.39

GoodI couldn’t even view the limited version with the adds popping up between clicks..Version: 2.31

Pretty addictiveTakes a while to get use to but once you pick it up gets pretty addictive to play due to its simplistic control and idea Can become repetitive though and the interface design is a little clunky.Version: 2.42

20 years is too shortI’m not sure if there is a bigger office more than 8 people. If not, I also hope it will have. In addition, I would like to see more contents from every aspects. I’m not complaining, I just liked this game so much and got immersed. Thanks.Version: 3.07

Issue with auto save and too complex…To be honest, it’s been months since I’ve started this game, but it’s been so hard to make a good game. My reviews are never above 6 (per judge). Anyways, no genre match works. Ever. Maybe I haven’t leveled up my employees enough, or some other things, but I’ve never made a game with over 20 points overall. Also, there is a bug with auto save that says “Y10 M1 W4” (year 10 month 1 week 4) but takes me back to year 9, where I just finished game 15. It was a golf marathon. Not my best choice, but it was cheap. And I was on a low budget. I really wish you guys could fix that bug. thanks!.Version: 3.06

Best Sim Game On iPhone. Period.Simply put, this game is an incredible addition to Apple Arcade, and helping bolster what was seemingly a very soft lineup/catalog of games. Everything about this game is great: the pacing, the mechanics, the nods to popular video games, hardware, developers, and manufacturers; the level of content and combinations to discover is seeming endless, the amount of achievements gives the player something to work toward, and you can save your game pretty much at any given point to be able to pause and pick it up later, which you most definitely will. Give this game a shot. If you love sim games, it may end up being your new favorite mobile game..Version: 3.06

Amazing gameSo much fun - very addictive!.Version: 3.06

Stop Progressing at a Certain PointThis game is actually pretty enjoyable. I’ve gotten sucked in for sure! The decision making in what games to create is pretty engaging and the different consoles with licensing create a decent goal based challenge. This game could do with some update to end game or progressing the game the next step. Once you reach a full office with max stats, it becomes very repetitive. Further expansion past this point is needed. The only other change I’d enjoy is more diversity in popularity. Some game fads come and go and it would be great to see this happen in the game over the course of 20+ in game years. Maybe a new movie comes out involving ogres that spikes the popularity of those games for a year or two. Something to change it up..Version: 2.39

Fun gameThis is my third time downloading and playing this game. I love it each time! Great game!.Version: 3.06

EasyVery addictive! Fun game..Version: 2.42

Fun but can’t save!Big time buggy save function. It doesn’t save despite pressing save what am I to do 😔.Version: 3.06

Difficult at first but brilliant overallAt first I was slightly frustrated with the Games start but as I progressed I enjoyed it so much One suggestion I have is maybe make the licensees a little cheaper to purchase so your not Stuck making games on the same console over and over 😊 But overall really enjoying this game.Version: 3.01

Incredible gameAddictive and fun. Gets a littttttle bit repetitive towards the end, but it’s still such a vast game with endless possibilities that I really don’t think it’s creators can do more. Just amazing, worth every penny paid for Apple Arcade..Version: 3.04

Great fun way to kill some timeThis game is SUPER fun! I’ve found myself going from killing time to playing all night. There’s plenty of tools on the internet to help you progress in this game. One thing I would like to see is maybe new office upgrades. Even though 8 staff members is the limit, more office themes can be a good way to make the current one stale. The themes in the game now aren’t really that great because the layout of the office stays the same. I also think it would be cool if the other companies continued pumping out consoles after year 20..Version: 3.06

Best simulation gameBest simulation game I have ever played. It's just so much fun. The milestones are progressively more challenging to achieve, but they are very rewarding too. A big thanks to the developer for creating such an amazing game.Version: 3.06

I’m just going to get straight to the point.The saving is trash. The reason the first thing I say that, is just so you don’t have to read this whole thing just to know what is wrong with it. Don’t get me wrong, this game is really fun. I love the concept, and how this really works. But, when you play a game- and this isn’t just this game, when you play any game, it applies. When you play a game, you wanna play it for a little bit, get some progress, and get off. And this is what I am doing, getting progress for a while. But, when I want to get off to get a glass of tea or something, I save, and then turn off my phone. However when I get back-! I get back on, and then when I press the continue button, and press the button, and it brings me back to the first office, all the way at year 1, month 1, week 1. I don’t know whether this is just where I have multiple saves, or if it’s the game. Please fix, or tell me what I am doing wrong. Thank you..Version: 2.31

Addicting until it’s notThis game has some really interesting mechanics that, at least at first, make it really exciting to play. Eventually, though, you get to a point where you’re just cranking out games without worrying about money and consistently getting in the hall of fame / #1 selling game for that week (it took me about two days to get to that point, but I was also playing quite a bit so it may vary). After that, there’s not much incentive to keep playing other than getting the grand prize and upgrading your employees (which also doesn’t take too much longer). I would recommend this game, but just be aware that it won’t last forever :).Version: 3.01

Very FunI enjoyed this game a lot.Version: 2.42

Love the game but— HelpI’m giving this game 4 stars because theres a bug that the game is not saved (even when I saved it like 10 times) it takes me back to a certain point in the game. I had collected $17,000 and saved the game and took me back to $3,000. All the games I made were lost. SO PLEASE FIX! I can’t play the game while this isn’t fixed, because I don’t want to lose my progress all over again. This bug is something recently that did not happen before, but I hoped it’s fixed. Other than that, the game is well made and I totally recommend it!!.Version: 3.06

GoodIt’s very fun.Version: 3.06

Really recommendOkay i’m not gonna lie I usually don’t leave any reviews on games this is actually my first but this game is actually really cool and addicting i’m not sure if they added Ps3 consoles and up but i think they should really do so adding new consoles and they should make it where other business can make there own consoles that are not made in real life for more competition and maybe add in more features to the game but back to my review this game is highly addictive it is really fun and has a lot to do for a simple game i really enjoy playing this to pass the time and just to play for the fun of it i highly recommend to everyone to download even if it doesn’t look appealing at first i promise it is worth it!.Version: 3.06

Great!It’s a great app! I don’t mind the ads to get the apps on my phone but I love the app! It have lots over of wallpapers if you ever wanna get a new one!.Version: 2.31

AddictiveSimple but addictive.Version: 2.42

I bought 3 copiesI’ve downloaded this game a few times over the years. Great, simple fun that chew up hours as you strive to get a perfect score on your own console..Version: 3.05

Beautiful!Been playing for 6 hours straight!.Version: 3.06

Awesome simHave loved this game since the original one. One of the best iOS games easily. Fun, not to complex but still challenging. Whenever I start playing I can’t put it down.Version: 2.42

GameI’ve never played a better game before. I enjoy playing it for hours, struggling to get the grand prize and achieve 40 critics’ points and so on but I enjoy doing that. Thanks!!! Just 1 little thing: pls, create some bigger offices and ways to expand players’ businesses. I can’t have too much of this game so I would like to see some more ways of developing!.Version: 2.42

Slow Grind but super addictiveThis game is super addictive. Very easy to pick up, you can tell They spent a lot of time making sure this game had enough depth but was easy enough to keep playing. I am on Y18 and just won the Grand Prize for the first time They spent all their focus on Simplicity and Polish. 4.4/5 great game.Version: 2.42

Uh… 10A Rare Masterpiece! Sonny and Capcorn wish they had games this elite. All jokes aside, after two full play throughs, I can say that I thoroughly enjoy this little game. It’s so fun trying to motivate and train your staff and keep the flow humming. Closer to the end when you start getting totals over 100 in each category is so satisfying knowing that you could barely clear 20 in the beginning. Just enough complexity to challenge you but not so much that it will turn you off. Great game start to finish. A love letter to retro gaming and games in general. Hat’s off!.Version: 3.04

Ridiculously Fun!I honestly didn’t think that I’d like this game. But I can’t put the blooming thing down! Extremely entertaining and satisfying. Love this game to bits..Version: 2.39

AddictingGg.Version: 2.42

Utterly addictiveThis game has a great gameplay loop, and once you get your head around the game mechanics it’s incredibly fun, and hard to put down. Amazing game..Version: 2.42

Great way to kill a lot of timeReally enjoyable, fun and complex mechanics with a cute design style.Version: 3.06

Slow Start but GoodGame is really slow at beginning as you start out as a nobody studio. I even had to dig into emergency funds at one point as I went negative. However few years after I started progressively making more money and I just managed to get all the good awards (there is an award for having the worse game and there’s a penalty for it) across the board at the 20th game award show. Once you get high enough you can make sequels to your games (they have to be Hall of Fame games to make a sequel) and even make your own console. I haven’t gotten to point of being able to make consoles yet as I can’t seem to find any hardware engineers to hire. I’d imagine this would be huge money as you no longer have to pay to license with another studios system. Instead they’ll have to pay you to make games on your system. Not sure how console creation works but hopefully it allows customization. I’ll try to remember to update review once I reach that point All in all I recommend trying the game out and getting past the beginning as that’s where the fun begins..Version: 3.01

No complaintsThanks for your service.Version: 2.31

Cuz I just won the grand PrizeI’m so hooked up the past two days with this game.Version: 3.06

This Game is AmazingBro I actually love this game. As someone who doesn’t play many mobile games (I’m primarily ps5) this game has had me glued to my phone. It’s not buggy in any sort of way, it’s nice and easy and just great overall. One problem is there is no way to 100% start over without deleting the app and reinstalling.Version: 2.42

Fun gameI found this game instantly addictive, with its quirky retro graphics and character development. I’ve played it through a couple of times now and have figured out how to develop my own console and make top scoring games pretty reliably. It’s a great game to just pick up, enjoy, then put down, wether you have 5 mins to kill or a couple of hours. My only issue really, to paraphrase the in game critics, “too short”. Give us more consoles to play with, a broader timeline, and accessories! Like the power glove, or VR goggles, light guns, dance mats etc. there is so much more you could easily do with this concept..Version: 2.42

A dated classicAlthough it would have been nice to see an update to be more comparable with modern hardware, this game is a total classic. All my nostalgia wires went off from the second I started playing. And although the interface is a bit dated the graphics and gameplay are as cute and tight as they were a decade ago. Definite recommend, but don’t go in expecting it to be as complex, streamlined, or intuitive as a modern game..Version: 3.01

Hope betterGreat quality and smooth operation.Version: 2.31

Really Fun Game ButHi, I love this game, it so fun and always something to look forward to playing. But In one of my saved games I lost everything, I played for 40y in that game with 1.5b and I lost it all. I don’t know what to do because now I am so demotivated to play it because I don’t want to lose it again. Please help me fix this.Version: 3.06

Really funThis game is extremely fun and I can’t stop playing it, there is something about it that keeps me on the app and doesn’t want to turn it off.Version: 3.01

Titanfall3I made titfanfall3 as the best game in game. Somehow made my dream come true 10/10 最科幻的一集.Version: 3.06

Who knew Game Development could be so fun!I've been playing this for about a year now. I have to say, I really enjoy how your own little digital gaming company can start from honest beginnings being contracted for other things, untill it's finally able to create it's first game. Then from licensing games from console to console untill your finally able to create your company's own home console. It really gives a different perspective for the gaming industry (even though this game originally came out in the late 90's). I'd definitely recommend..Version: 3.06

Loads of fun but…Enjoying the game, can’t stop playing once I’ve got a few games developed and a good starting team who are comfortable with most early contracts… I save the game using the inbuilt save system, but when ever I have closed the game after saving, my game is gone and I can’t continue as it states there’s no stored file and have to start over again… I have to keep the app open just to keep my save going which is kind of annoying as I have a habit of closing all my apps when I put my phone down. Hopefully ya read this. If this wasn’t an issue, 5*.Version: 3.01

I think that this game is completely worth itI have Apple Arcade because my family needed more iCloud storage, this was a benefit. I started looking at the games and I saw Game Dev Story, I have played games like Stardew valley in the past, this game’s graphics are similar. After downloading I could tell that this game was one that I would enjoy playing, and I have played it for around a month now. It’s a great game to play because of the lack of in-app purchases, if you’re like me and you are exploring Apple Arcade, this game is fun to play “and I have recommended it to all my coworkers” That’s all.Version: 3.04

Great game!This is another great Apple Arcade game, it’s fun, addicting, and is interesting. I think a great addition to the game could be market research, or something like that, where you can pay and it would tell you a great combination for a game. This is a great game and I’m excited to keep playing..Version: 3.06

Great gameVery realistic.Version: 3.01

AddictiveVery clever concept and very entertaining. There are loads of improvements that can be made if the developers keep working on this. I’m hooked and am really looking forward to see where they take this game..Version: 2.27

Addictive and fun!A game about making games… It shouldn’t work but it really does. The controls and graphics are simple, as is the premise: sell as many high quality games as you can! You can pick this up and play in bitesized chunks or settle in for a long commute, either way you’ll be hooked for as long as you can spare. The game almost instantly syncs across devices so if you have an iPad and phone you can play on both without the worry of losing your progress. Perfect little time hole, recommended!.Version: 3.06

Fantastic Addictive gameThe game is mostly automatic but keeps you involved just enough so that you can’t put it down. Clever placement of prompts and subtle reminders from your staff make sure you’re always involved with the game. No loading screens or obvious milestones let you play the game for a considerable amount of time without even realising it. The music in a constant loop helps keep you in a trance but is extremely repetitive and once you realise this it gets annoying. Greater progression in the game would be enjoyable, for example, the prospect of larger offices than what is available now. Even two offices simultaneously cranking out games forcing you to hire more people and manage more things and really give the player a challenge. Overall great game, well done to the Kairo team..Version: 2.42

Addicting but a Little RepetitiveThe first few hours are some of the most fun I’ve had in a mobile game in a while. But it does get a bit repetitive after a bit, and you kind of hit your maximum abilities in the game quite a long time before the end, so after you stop progressing it becomes a little dull. But still overall a very fun game!.Version: 3.06

Great game about gamesIt’s immersive, addictive, funny. Great for wasting a bunch of time. Just what I hoped when I bought it. I do wish that you could name the games you make, but I don’t know how if you can..Version: 3.06

Great FunReally fun game. Worked my way up to the grand prize. Loved getting to make my own game creating choices. Wish there were even more offices and expansions to keep playing and make even bigger games..Version: 3.06

It starts slow ...It starts slow and feels a bit overwhelming at first. Then aiming at becoming the "Rockstar" of the industry becomes easier and more satisfying. Not sure how long is the longevity of the game but so far it is quite fun. I doubt after 10 hours you will feel the same sense of addition for being OP most of the time..Version: 3.06

This game is BUSSINNo ads, haven’t encountered a single glitch, performance is immaculate, not to mention the gameplay is so rewarding and enjoyable if you like business/buy and sell games. The progression doesn’t feel like a grind and honestly it’s just one of the best games I’ve played.Version: 2.42

Awesome game! But a bit outdatedI really enjoy game dev games, and have played a few so far. Although this game was amazing and addictive, it was a tid bit outdated and unrealistic. The game genres sometimes didnt match up even tho it should. Such as mixing dungeon and adventure together into a game; this has always been a famous game genre, yet the game always says this was not a good combination like what? The prices to buy licenses to produce for a new console were wayyyy too expensive. By the time I could afford making games for the cheapest console, 6 different new gens had already been released. And it doesent matter how well you make a game in the beginning, it will always be a trash game until you make a perfect game by todays standards. This is overall still a really amazing game with just a fee annoyances. Although there are better dev games out there, this one I Highly recommand!.Version: 2.42

Hard to stopI had work the next day… I was working all night… enough said.Version: 2.39

Amazing!It is really simple and involves doing the same thing over and over. Yet I’m hooked! As soon as I tried it out, I was stuck on the toilet for about an hour playing it. I find it really fun.Version: 3.06

Addictive!Cute, fun, addictive and loaded with puns. I would add the option of selecting the names of games created and a better organisation of past games and their sequels. I would also add the option for prequels haha and a bit more explanation on which jobs unblock the other ones..Version: 2.39

Super addictingThis game slaps.Version: 3.06

Fun and Complex GameThis game is fun if you’re a game nerd as a lot of the in jokes are to do with game systems names and game names for the past 35 years. That being said if you are good at strategy games then this is the one for you. It is a reasonably complex but very playable strategy game. Totally awesome game..Version: 2.42

Can’t stop playingSimple mechanics in a very nice looking game that make it incredibly addictive, I didn’t think I was going to get hooked up playing this but oh boy was I wrong! Simply fantastic.Version: 3.06

Love the gameWasn’t too sure if I would have liked the game at first, but I became addicted and completed the game literally in 24 hrs. It was fun and finally won the grand price feel like I have set up a awesome business. Had to fire some older timers and had to hire some new, had to take some risks with licensing new consoles but it worked out! Try it out it’s quite fun, I would love like a part two of this game!.Version: 2.42

Can get exciting!Having played the entire game through like twice, I feel like I wanna do it one more time to see if I can get a score of 40 from the critiques! If I can get all of my figures above 200 for a game or a sequel, then I reckon a 40 would be in order! I notice more details and how to up my score every time I play. Having knowledgeable staff helps a lot! I’ve enjoyed this game. It’s so satisfying when you win the grand prize! Moving between the sequels means the fans don’t get bored..Version: 3.03

Make more gamesI enjoyed this game a lot and I also play more of your games on other platforms and I also encourage that you and your crew make more games.Version: 3.06

I’m addicted!This game got me so hooked, it’s everything I love about sim games. Saves are really good that I can leave and pick it back up anytime..Version: 3.01

Good for arcadeEasy fun game from Apple Arcade.Version: 3.01

Super fun gameThis game is great, giving you things to do from the start. I’ll tell you though at the start. It’s hard to get you company going but when you get past that and start to make lots of money this game is great. Even after I have finish most of the game, there is still things you can do. Great game, could not recommend it more.Version: 3.06

5 Star RelationshipThis game is fun. I give it 5 stars, it has kept me entertained for awhile. Just like every game I will eventually grow bored of the game and wonder why I still have it in the “games” folder… week after week it will sit there and week after week I will look at it and say “that was a fun game, I won’t delete it because I’ll probably play it again at some point”.. Then it will sit in my “games” folder long enough where I eventually delete it. Months or years later I will be bored once again looking for new games and download it once more. It’s a vicious cycle, but it seems to happen more often than not with many different good games. It’s a toxic relationship with good memories - Love it, hate it, leave it, and eventually come back to it and do it all over… 5 stars ⭐️.Version: 3.01

Fun but missing so much…This game is a great way to pass the time and there’s no need to pay for progress or wait AFK which is amazing and really refreshing from other tycoons. However, it’s pretty basic and simple after a few years in. The prices jump so high so fast that unless you’re an expert with a few tries and saves you won’t be able to experience the entire game. To my knowledge, you can’t name your games and it makes the game a lot less immersive to see Game #8 has performed well and takes away a lot of creativity. There should be different game modes for different types of players i.e endless mode where you keep developing until you can’t or rush mode to see how much you can make in x amount of years. The game is very fast paced and can make it hard to actually enjoy and experience the game..Version: 2.31

Good FunGreat fun but can’t seem to get a hardware engineer no matter how many times I try hiring..Version: 2.42

Great GameWell made and a good way to kill a couple of hours..Version: 2.42

Fun gameReally enjoyed it, no real replay ability. That’s it’s only downside in my opinion..Version: 3.06

Game Dev StoryIs exactly what you expect a good game dev sim to be, only more. This game starts off challenging but then gets easier as time goes on. I wish there were more things added to it though.Version: 2.39

AddictingGreat game to pass time with..Version: 3.06

Won the grand prizeI won the grand prize so I’m writing a review. I like this game though it’s not bad..Version: 3.06

The Best Mobile Game EverThis is probably one of my favourite games of this year, I don’t know why but I just love the concept and the ability to make games it’s calming and I really like the feel of it, I highly recommend this game you won’t regret it.Version: 3.04

Addictive, Amusing and a bit repetitiveI love this game, there’s lots to love about the never ending grind to make the best games. The design of it is great too, my one problem is that the game does become increasingly repetitive as you get better and better. But I still highly recommend this to anyone contemplating it!.Version: 2.42

‘90s Retro Done WellThis is a retro-style game that ticks all the boxes. How can a game about developing video games while developing your staff be addictive? It just is. The hours fly by while you negotiate console licences, perform contract work, and release your own games to market. On my third play through and it’s still engaging..Version: 2.42

Can’t put it downBest game by far on Apple Arcade it’s such a simple concept but it’s always a case of “ok then I’ll develop one more game” then before you know it you done several and started developing your own console. Can’t recommend this one enough!!.Version: 3.06

AddictingThis game has had me addicted for the past 12 hours and I have not been able to put it down. 5/5.Version: 2.42

Brilliant Casual FunGreat game played through twice so far and will have a few more play throughs to try and beat my high score before I get bored of this one well worth sinking some hours into.Version: 2.42

Pretty good…This game is great it is incredibly addicting but I feel it is very limiting in certain aspects. The game itself is good and pretty much perfect, it’s gameplay is quite repetitive and you need to grind to get to the top. It is just enough different each time to make it not feel so boring but after a while it ends up just being bad. After playing this game for a while I’m left wanting more from the experience like more complexity or customisation. This is just me however and others might enjoy this simple entertaining game. Also how do you even get a game with perfect ratings???.Version: 3.06

Good Idle FunNothing too intense but a pleasant time filler..Version: 2.39

Can’t put it down.I’m absolutely addicted to this game..Version: 3.06

FantasticInsanely incredible and addicting.Version: 2.42

It’s actually funAt the start it wasn’t that fun but as soon as I started putting out some cool games and it became so much fun..Version: 3.06

10/10 Best game everHonestly didn’t think I would spend so much time in game. I’ve made countless games and wasn’t cash in game to the point that I just buy everything and anything but there’s something special about winning that Grand Prize! - Grand Prize Winner.Version: 3.04

Way better than you thinkQuite fun actually and a little bit tricky, plays well I didn’t come across any bugs and enjoyed every minute..Version: 2.39

It was really coolI'm really enjoying this game, I think there should be difficulty setting and it's a bit unclear how to get software engineers but it's still lots of fun!.Version: 2.42

Could use some extra polishThis game is very fun and I had a great time playing it. There are only a few things that feel off. The overall game could have just used a little more work. All the buttons feel clunky and the music worked 25% of the time. The style of the game was weird and many parts of it were weird, but maybe that was the appeal of the game. They could also make the combinations of games more varied. I really liked all of the little nods to older consoles and I enjoyed the secrets like that. Overall this game is great and is very fun. The few things that would change would make the game very complete. Thanks for reading!.Version: 3.06

Very niceI like.Version: 2.42

Game Dev TyconIt’s a seriously good tycon game that’s only limited by certain progression factors, once you get a company passed a certain point no other “company’s/game studios” even try to release anything that can rival your own. No new console releases and the staff is very repetitive too, to build a console in game is actually quite difficult but after you manage it once it’s easy todo repetitively after although there’s no real gain or sense of accomplishment. Again it’s a great tycon game for killing time and If you need something for a day or two but sadly I feel like I’m just doing the same thing time after time now. An additional fault could be good, piracy issues too as it’s common IRL, or even having something in the office or something different would be refreshing, also what about a social media incorporation too? It’s just some silly ideas from someone who’s played the game and after a day or two I just don’t want to play anymore as it becomes relatively repetitive, again it’s not a bad game it just gets a bit bland after a day’s worth of playing..Version: 3.04

ExcellentThe fun graphics, catchy music, and the pick-up-and-play ease of this game makes it so much fun. It has some challenge to be sure, balancing the numbers employ ease and their abilities, making wise use of your money, discovering and perfecting all of the different game types and genres, etc. but it is also simple enough that anyone could pick this up and have a great time playing for hours. I find myself getting lost in this game and just completely mesmerized by how much fun it is. Simply put, I love it and can’t get enough..Version: 3.03

Fun and relaxingFun game to kill time with..Version: 3.06

Surprisingly entertaining.Didn’t expect it to be so entertaining. At first with the graphics you don’t think much of the game… however after playing it for nearly 3 days now, without adds, without having to spend money on gaining advantages it’s a very tactical / strategic game which is enjoyable..Version: 2.42

Well this game was not what I expectedIn the beginning, you find it a little bit of a struggle, about half way through things smooth out and you start getting your bearings. Expect to make hundreds of games and fail a few of them. After a while the satisfaction grows higher as you start receiving rewards, have a fan base and even get to make your own console to make games on that. Don’t skip on licensing a new console but don’t live ve all of them and stay above 10% As a last note there aren’t any bugs so far as I could tell and the rng is in your favor so you are having good fun and plenty of Easter eggs to top it off!.Version: 2.42

Loads of Fun But Could Use TweaksI’ve played this game for many weeks, and I have to say it has a hard learning curve. There was a lack of direction at first and I wasn’t sure what some of the various stats of my characters actually accomplished. After trial and error, however, I began to find my success with the game, and grew a sudden appreciation for the challenge. It took time, but I got there. I enjoy the game for its simple complexity and its progression. The concept is fun and engaging. The moments I have where something clicks and I find ways to advance my company’s progress is exciting to experience. I just wish there were better instructions about the game. Sometimes I wish I could click on character stats and get details about it, or understand if some of the job titles of characters matter at times or not (for example, I have characters who have higher stats in sound than my sound engineer. Does them being a sound engineer carry more weight than the fact that their stat is lower? If not, should it?). I know there is a ‘manual’, but it’s 29 pages of short messages. Kind of clunky and vague at times because of the format. Overall, the game is fun, but can be challenging at first. Don’t give up, and try not to browse the web for quick answers. Makes the grind worth it..Version: 3.06

A well thought out game!I was initially sceptical that the game would get somewhat repetitive but after playing for a few minutes i realised the versatility of the game play. From choosing to advertise to increase your fan base, to attending gaming conventions to see how popular you are as a company the game has loads of different factors. The only thing that i would change is the ability to change a worker job into any type of job instead of a limited amount. apart from that it’s a brilliant game!.Version: 2.39

Fun and relaxing!It’s a really fun game I like the idea, and the game play is very simple which is nice for relaxing. It did take me a little while to fully understand how to play, and I do wish there was a way for the workers to level up on their own. Say like with experience as in the longer they work the the more points they get. The only other thing I am saddened by is that there’s no way to specifically buy the bonuses, and even if you don’t buy anything the prices still go up. Even though it says the price only increases when you buy them. Overall all though I think given the simplicity of the game it’s really fun, and I’ve found it to be very addictive! I can’t wait to see what this game has in store for updates!.Version: 3.00

DeeeceentI spend way too much time on this game lol.Version: 3.06

游戏挺简单的但是好玩呀!不错不错.Version: 3.06

No Need to Wait or go AFK!A lot of the recent tycoon games cause you to wait for things to finish, or go afk while you do something. However Game Dev Story+ makes it so that the entire time you’re involved! The waiting times are exciting because you need to do things between them, making the game extremely addictive, and able to be played for long amounts of time… There is also excellent replay value, as even when you get very famous and rich, you can always go back to the beginning and now you will know more about how everything works making it somewhat more enjoyable for a second, third, or even fourth play through! Game Dev Story+ is a must-play for the Apple Arcade!!!.Version: 2.27

This game is great. But I’ve encountered a bug.Okay, so first things first, this game is awesome. I enjoy the art and the concept. I am addicted and I love your company. But, I’ve found a bug that makes my experience frustrating. So, I constantly save my progress, so I don’t have to start all over, right? And every time I decide to close the app, I make sure to save my game, and everything’s fine after that. But after I open the app to play again, I click “continue” and I click my save that I’ve saved earlier, and I’m back at the original office! This has happened 5 times, and each time I start over and say, “It’ll be fine, I’m a master of this game”. But this is time I was frustrated. I had hired a hacker, had 30 million in the bank, I had upgraded to the biggest office you can get, and I was working on my own console! All my other games I had saved didn’t get this far, and I was very disappointed in your game after I’ve been playing it for a year and had a nice experience. Yes, the app is updated to its most recent version, and my device is too. Please fix this bug so I can continue enjoying your app. Thank you..Version: 3.04

Amazing appI used the create your own feature. Completely free, didn’t have to watch any ads whatsoever. This feature is amazing. Had absolutely no problems with it at all. Fantastic app and very easy to add widgets and icons. Thank you!.Version: 2.31

Such a fun and addictive gameLove this game no ads and strait forward and easy to understand game mechanics, have always and will always play this game for hours and hours..Version: 3.06

Wonderful love and attentionThis game was somewhat of a learning experience for me concerning savings and budget management, overall I this was something I never knew I needed, keep creating wonderful games like this! ✨❤️.Version: 2.42

“It’s a rare masterpiece!”Such a sweet game, easy to get a hold of things, super fun! It eventually gets to the point where you find yourself repeating steps to achieve a goal maybe past Year 12 I think. I wished other gaming companies would keep making consoles to create more competition and even an award for best console too. Other than that, it’s a nice, sweet game that makes you feel accomplished!.Version: 2.42

Pretty good with little complaint.This game has been a good way to kill time. It is enjoyable even if a bit repetitious. The concept and execution are wonderfully done for a simple sim game, although I would have appreciated a better explanation of the stats/jobs. I appreciate the silly names for about everything from your employees to the gaming industry products. The release of consoles in game feels like a pretty good reflection of what we had in reality from the PC through some VR game systems. I even felt a bit of reality nudge when making games for systems whose real world analog failed. Not sure if it’s on purpose but when changing jobs the game won’t let me chose certain options, even when the character already has the job available. The same people always show up for interviews. I wouldn’t call them complaints but my only issue was with the game leaving you questionable options from hiring “booth babes” to being able to make games like “dating shooter”. A tiny bit of thought there wouldn’t hurt. Overall I’ll keep it on my phone to play more..Version: 3.05

太好玩了吧真的停不下来,最长纪录一直玩了12小时!.Version: 3.03

Addictive yet funYou start as a humble developer with your very own personal assistant and 100k…. That’s the begining of Game Dev Story+ in which you have 21 years to expand your gaming company and become the biggest developer team. The game is simply addictive and allows you to come up with your own strategy. You also can fire and hire people to your heart’s content (if you have the money) So, if you ever want a tycoon(ish) game, this might just be the one for you..Version: 3.04

Addictive!Started playing this game yesterday and I’m so hooked on it, it is so addictive. I actually am not exaggerating when I say I can’t stop playing. There is always something to work towards, and achievements to try and get. Definitely recommend downloading this game and please take my advice when I say, you have to trust the process, keep playing, don’t stop when you think you’re going downhill or you’re not going to get better. I was in debt with -20,000k from hiring some epic people on my team and thought dang how am I going to fix this, but I just did heaps of contracts to get my money back, and I was fine! Now on year 17 with 130,000k and many top seller games AND making my own consoles!!!!.Version: 2.42

Actually fun game didn’t expect it to be this funThe game actually runs well and is a great mix between hard and simple.Version: 2.42

Slow burner…Takes a little time to get into but once your up and ruining bits a great little game. Could do with a little bit more of helpful direction in the later game with thing like hardware engineers and console building but maybe that’s part of the fun trying to work this stuff out. 👌.Version: 3.05

W gameI played this game like a year ago and i liked it but i have a short attention span soni stopped playing it.. yesterday i downloaded it again and started a new game and it was as fun as ever. Good game and good mechanics.. just a really pleasant game to pass time :).Version: 3.06

AmazingI’m fully obsessed with this game, no in-app purchases and even when you’ve finished you have the motive to start again and try to beat your original high score. 5 stars for me!!.Version: 2.39

Great game if your busy but want to be able to not fall behindTime management is great, whenever you look away it practically pauses for you by someone approaching your desk to notify you of the develpoment, as soon as you pay more attention to hiring good employees for each role and choosing which sections to focus your money in ( scenario writers and graphic writers help a lot early on) for the maximum returns the game speeds up a lot. I recommend getting the best employees early on. It feels like all the good talent disappears or i got them all. Im still not sure. Hackers are goat. Tldr: game will pause often so if your busy it wont leave you behind. Take your time and just spend your money on good employees early, its worth more than spending on game design early. Free employees pump out gold too..Version: 3.04

AwesomeGreat game to spend time on and is also quite addicting..Version: 3.06

EzIs fun and fast.Version: 3.07

Heavily AddictiveCant stop playing.Version: 3.06

Super engrossing!Hours go by playing this game, the constant want to release the best game to make a ton of money to make an even better game is what keeps me playing! The only reason I haven’t given a 5 star is because you may have to google a lot of things as the tutorial basically stops after 3 tasks and just leaves you googling quite a bit to fine tune your business.Version: 2.42

Best game simulator i have every playedIve been known about this game since i was in high school and was always into it. I took time off playing every once in a while of time however its only because of the different devices i had this game on. I love the creativity the creators put into this game and also let us be wild running through our individuality in this game to make all types of video games. The best portable game ive ever played and its so addicting, i love it man. Thank you for creating such an amazing piece of art and history..Version: 3.01

Fun for daysAfter you have a try of this game, Google best combinations for games and it’ll be so much easier to build your gaming empire 🤓.Version: 3.06

Great GameFor Starters They didn’t give you any tutorial because you just had to read all of it manually for yourself, i didn’t even knew how to make my own console without getting a material engineer Staff, So i just had search for it on YouTube only to find out you need to switch you’re employees job while level up their Job section on which they work for. In the end I became addicted to the game, so much that I spend 3 weeks on it without even knowing! The game itself is like it’s title says You make games with the help of your employees. The catch? They have special events both positif and négatif, such as losing points of your game that you’re developing because ‘‘There was a Black out while developing the game’’ it is annoying that you make a lot of points for your game only to be downgrade by a Négatif special event. The positif special event one? Sometimes Either the in-game news will write a article that’ll get you a small amount of fans, or they’ll boost the sales before/ after your game release. So yeah, I’m giving it 4 stars because the devs just abandoned you and let you figure out the rest by yourself Overall great game.Version: 3.06

Pretty goodI will admit i sank a bowl & got engulfed in this game for a good 4 hours. i can’t help but try to beat my previous score & i just finally won best game award after like 25 games. if anything i think the console releases should be spaced out more. by the time i had enough money for a nice one there were already 2 more released, just couldn’t keep up. that’s it tho sick game 7/10 but no sequel.Version: 3.06

Great gameLiking the game has fun quirks but 30 years playtime within game lets it down needs to be longer with extra settings but interesting game overall worth a play.Version: 2.42

AddictiveGreat game, I finally won the Grand Prize but it took my 2 day of not being able to put the game down. Brilliant.Version: 3.04

Addicted, aware, but not regrettingHonest this game is so great for the genre it is, one of those games that make you wish it was never ending. Different routes you can go for reply value, fun character names, limited but grind-able advancement, and just a tinge of RNjesus that get under your skin at times without making you curse the age in which you were born. Basically I got it one day for fun, proceeded to play it deep untill the next morning despite having priorities and knowing this game had a save feature… this is that kind of game lol..Version: 3.03

GG’s🎮💯.Version: 3.06

An amazing game!I have to say, I never leave reviews on anything. With amount of hours of fun I’ve had, this game definitely deserves it. If you’re questioning it, don’t. Just get it, you won’t be disappointed. Happy gaming!.Version: 3.01

Best Game Ever!!! 10/10Must buy/get!!!.Version: 3.06

Important InfoThis game is pretty good, I got the “grand prize” pretty quickly which is when it asked me to give a review. The game is fun and is 100% worth checking out to see if your interested in it. One big flaw though is that it doesn’t tell you how to get the jobs like producer, director, hardware engineer, and hacker. Which if you don’t know how to get them the game is pretty limited because I was never ever able to find a hardware engineer for higher. The game also doesn’t tell you that if you higher someone who had prior work experience as a hardware engineer then they still can’t make a console because it’s not there current job, and they don’t normally have the requirements to become a hardware engineer. So if your going to play this game which is 100% recommend for you to do, just make sure you search up a few things like how to create the “hidden” careers. Because I would have never known that you need to level the employees up because I felt it gave small boosts to do so..Version: 3.06

Same old excellent game, rebrandedI played this game when it first came out years ago and loved it along with many others. I’ve been a hardcore Kairosoft fan ever since, I’ve bought every game they’ve ever released. When I saw this pop up in Apple Arcade I was very excited, started playing the game and quickly realised the only thing they changed was adding a + in the title. As far as I can tell this is the same game they released years ago, the same niggling issues exist; you can’t speed up employees when you select them to develop the various parts of the game by tapping the screen (like you can is subsequent Kairosoft titles), there are grammatical errors “What? A Animal game?” When it should be ‘An’. And it’s missing features that the newer games benefitted from, like being able to name and customise your ‘boss’ character, and more areas and activities to perform. This is an excellent game, and you’ll love it, this was Kairosoft’s biggest hit in their early days, so I couldn’t bring myself to rate this anything less than 5 stars. However, I would have loved to have seen some tweaks and improvements to justify that + and its inclusion in Apple Arcade..Version: 2.39

Great Game, Annoying SoundsSo I love the concept here. And for the most part, it’s fleshed out pretty brilliantly. The 16-bit style of art feels right at home in this business simulator. Most of the writing seems on point- though I did notice some glaring errors. I would recommend hiring a native speaker or somebody that has a degree in English to really polish off the text portion of the game. The music is high in quality, but low in content. I’d recommend crafting a better soundtrack, but the ability to mute it and play my own music while the game runs kind of makes it a moot point. Beyond that, the only gripe I have it with the achievement sound. Every time you accomplish ANYTHING- from completing a new game to having an article written about your company, there’s a Legend-of-Zelda-esque music byte that plays for about 10 seconds. The first 10 or so times it’s fine, but after that it gets to be SO annoying. Please change or shorten this sound, devs. All in all, great game! Thanks for making it!.Version: 3.00

<3Yay.Version: 3.06

This game is actually really funThis game is actually really fun and actually kind of thought provoking. I’ve been played for the past few days and I have a hard time putting it down. It is fast paced and always presents a good challenge. I hope the devs aren’t done with this game and continue to make it better. Also maybe leave a few bits of information to help show what certain perks do. I have good characters with job types but some work better than others who should do “better”. Besides that if you want a fun game to keep you entertained through the boring parts of the day I defiantly recommend this!!.Version: 3.01

SHOCKED… COULDN’T PUT IT DOWNHonestly had no expectations for this game I was just trying to expand the amount of Apple Arcade games I had and who would’ve known a game about making a game will be the first game I played nonstop for a whole day. Legit shook, gonna go drink some water now and think about life. Great job guys!.Version: 3.00

Amazing game!I’ve played this game on and off for years. It is simply one of the best games, and such a time stealer. It’s simple, addictive and fun. The only thing I would change is making the game length longer, instead of 20 in game years. I only say that because I’m a total addict and will play through the whole 20 years in a day..Version: 3.06

AddictiveYou just want to keep playing!.Version: 3.01

Still a good timePlayed this years ago, and it’s still a lot of fun. Hoping for an expanded sequel..Version: 3.06

Still a gemPlayed this,when it first came out and played many kairosoft games since. This still holds up as one of the best, just spent a morning binging to the end!.Version: 3.01

Amazing Game BUT….. it could be BETTERAll around amazing game I do however think that it could use some extra touches like… 1. Add equipment including, chairs, PCs, desks, and other stuff like that and make them have upgradable stats that increase the performance of your employees (individual or not) BUT still keep the cosmetic stuff. 2. Add a larger variety of characters, or add like a little ticket thing that you can buy (not with real money) that can allow you to customize the employee of choice. 3. Add gear for employees that does things like, increase the chance of improvement success but decrease’s max power, increase one stat significantly but tragically decrease another, And other stuff similar. other than that the game is amazingly flawless and very enjoyable and I would be absolutely grateful if even one of these game mechanics are added to the game. And if the developers actually read this thank you for at least taking the time to read it and have a amazing day 👍.Version: 3.03

Don’t download if you want to get to bed at a reasonable hourDidn’t expect to get into this. Very simple and as the quality of the games you produce improve, you find yourself becoming attached to different game combinations and coming up with the names which would not break any copyright laws in the real world..Version: 3.06

A++++ Game 🤩 and Ideas 💡We need more games like this what if! you had a basement for the hackers and hardware engineers? AND WHAT IF! you had the ability to choose a priority for the game, like sound or creativity? AND WHAT IFFFF! you could change the avatar of the boss when you first start the game? AND AND WHAT IF! you could change the outfits they wore to office, and they would only change when they ran out of energy? AND AND AND WHAT IF! you could have a display case you could go to to see your trophies for each game, and you could customize the display case? AND AND AND- ok i’m done :D.Version: 3.04

Simple but funA sim game done well. Fairly simple/ easy to understand mechanics, and well paced. My only criticism is that all of the “secret” employees are male or non-human. It also seems like everyone is white or looks white? I found myself with a team of mostly white men, which as a real life tech worker felt a little too realistic in a bad way. The other thing is that the genres and types are a bit arbitrary and strange…combos that would work in real life don’t do well, and games that wouldn’t do well in real life are “amazing”. But that’s a minor complaint, especially because it adds some (more) oddball humor..Version: 3.06

Good gameI’m too addicted to this game because this game is amazing.Version: 3.06

Short and AwesomeI’m not going to write a long reviews as I usually never leave one and it is to much work. However this game blew me away with the mechanics and how everything is run in the game. It is built beautifully so you could play over time and enjoy it. Or personally someone like me have been grinding to get the best scores for myself and trying out different combinations. I don’t even play app games much anymore, but this game got me hooked. I feel like there are always changes in the game depending on how you make decisions with your own money and that was cool. 5/5 game download it believe me..Version: 3.05

One of the best Mobile games I’ve playedI have always loved the idea of a game about making games and I love other games that have that idea. I make games in real life and this game is just so entertaining. I only have one issue and that is that it doesn’t seem updated too often which is a shame since this game has so much more potential For example, More options for making a game -make a Box cover using in game stickers -more detail within game creation -age ratings But apart from that one issue, I suggest this to anybody who loves creative games and I give this 5 Stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.Version: 3.06

Great gameVery addictive game, trying to improve on your previous games you can play for hours. If you want a quick game you can just smash out a new development and leave it at just one in about half hour..Version: 2.42

I love this gameThis is so good I don’t no where to start.I love the characters the jokey knockoffs of consoles and companies (Hope you liked thinking them up) and even just idle games in general. Brilliant.Version: 3.06

Good game with replay-abilityI had played this game ages ago and was happy to see it in arcade for nostalgia’s sake. I played it twice over and thought the changes made increased the replay ability and challenge of the game. Would recommend to others who like trying to figure out game mechanics and uncover different combos. Also easy game to multitask to..Version: 3.06

Fantastic gameI really enjoyed every aspect of this game, other then it ending too soon and the new consoles being a bit too expensive.Version: 2.42

Enjoyable & addictiveQuite enjoyed this game, easy to get hooked on and spend hours playing. Recommend.Version: 2.42

Perfect!I tried this not too sure if I’d be into it but haven’t been able to put it down for the last 2 days. It’s such an excellent game I’m completely hooked!.Version: 3.05

Addictive but needs more choicesReally enjoyed it. In fact it was hard to put down. But after hitting year 12 which can be done in a few hours I was already starting to struggle to make it to year 20 which is when the “game ends.” I am definitely going to play to year 20 to see what happens but then with its current choice and content options it’s probably a game I’d delete off my phone because I’ve seen everything there is to see and don’t want to put forth the effort of another play through..Version: 2.39

Simple, but very compulsiveOn the surface, this is a simple resource management sim. But once it gets it’s hooks in you, you won’t be able to put it down, constantly striving for better sales figures and industry awards!.Version: 2.42

Nice Game, Could Do with Some TweaksInteresting concept of pairing different game styles to see which work out or not. There is also a good desire to build the best team to get to a perfect 40 score for a game, and then win the Game of the Year Award. However: 1. The game is not open ended enough. It needs to go beyond Y19 or so 2. When developing the games, instead of the creative phases (graphics, sound) being randomize, what about a mini-game? 3. Some of the text and event dialogue are overly repetitive and could be removed. 4. Increase the complexity and rewards of the contracts; at a certain point, they are irrelevant to the game. 5. The characters you can get through hiring seems fixed, so after a while, the hiring screen becomes useless since you get to see the same characters you rejected in prior auditions. 6. The options for Gamedex seem limited - why not allow us to pick the games on show to influence how people interact with the booth, or allow a sneak peak of the next game, etc? 7. Should there be a way to permanently increase the Power of a character? 8. Would be good to allow the Job Titles to have influence over the creative process, for example, a Director / Producer attached to the graphics and sound team, Lead Programmer to the programming team, … 9. Why not allow multiple projects / teams to be developed in parallel?.Version: 2.42
