Ridiculously Fun
Cadence Sherlyn
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.
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you finish a game and start developing one for a new platform it seems like another platform comes out and that one is out of date. 2).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.
I've waited so long

I have waited so long to play this game, I played this game on steam for forever and I never figured out why it wasn't on a mobile device. So excited to keep playing!!
Reliving the milestones of my youth

I grew up in the 80s, playing the types of games I’m now developing in this game. This is a HUGE blast with a minimal learning curve. Keep it up Greenheart!!!
Excellent Port!

I was so glad to see Game Dev Tycoon had been ported over to the iPad. A great sim that I’ve been playing on my laptop for years with intuitive controls and the gameplay I’ve grown to know and love! Well worth the few bucks to support these great developers!
This is amazing

This is one of the best game Dev simulator out there. It’s very well thought and plays really smooth. Maybe if it had like a whole in-depth custom system that would be cool but hey I’m not complaining.
