Total misfire

OxcartMC

With the greatness of Air Tycoon 4, I was thrilled to see a shipping game from Tradegame. Sadly, I couldn't be more disappointed. Why? Because the stupid thing needs a persistent internet connection, even for SINGLE PLAYER. And, adding to the insult, despite having BOUGHT the game, you have to PAY MORE to play single player! "Unhappy" doesn't describe it. More like..."disgusted."


good to play and understand shipping business.

Upgrade it to Unlimited time!

Alek125

I understand you need a cumulative time to cope up with other players in multi player gaming but instead of limiting it till a certain year, please make it for unlimited time as further as a player can go! Both in single and multiplayer game! Appreciate it! Username : Alek125


Best Game Simulator Ever

I love this game. I've literally played this game every single day since I downloaded it about 6 months ago. However I do wish there were a few more ship options though but the game is still the best mobile game I've ever played.


Simply Addicting

Simple to pickup but can also involve a lot of strategy. Requires some time investment to progress through the various licenses but not on an hourly basis. Also, you don't necessarily need to spend $ in order to compete with the others online. SN: W2k.


Great game!!!!!

Game overall design is awesome. Lots a gameplay and different strategies that can be used. One warning, the contract bidding can work to your advantage and also bankrupt you. Always try to have contracts going in both directions. That is how you really start to make some cash. So far, the developers have added some nice features. And I'm sure as the game continues, more features will be added. Hours and hours of gameplay. I can play for 12 hours a day or more if I wanted too. Overall, might be the best strategy game available. TOTAL FIVE STAR ***** Bradley44 is my profile name


Another great game from tradegamelab

Cruise tycoon was a little childish. This one brings in airline tycoon expertise into a great ship game. Very enjoyable. The drawback being to grind less, money has to be put in to reach the largest vessel before the end of the 30-year game. Last, a major issue is must be online for single player.... What is the point of that?? Tytyty


Engaging game

I really enjoy playing this game. It is quick to learn to play, but learning how to play the most profitable game takes some time. That's good to me, games that are easily mastered get boring quick. The multi-player function grants a limited amount of in-game "days" based on a real-world clock. This keeps everyone on a server reasonably close to each other in time, thus ranking makes more sense. And the timers keep me from playing this too much in a single sitting. redbarchetta3


Great game, horrible marketing strategy

Rusty29588288

I'm going to start off by saying tradegame labs has made some great games, especially with the air tycoon series; it's come a long way and is one of the best realistic strategy games on mobile devices, and ship tycoon is no exception to that. However...... Ship tycoon plays very well, it is consistent with the other tycoon games such as Air tycoon and hotel tycoon and I get a lot of enjoyment playing this game but the marketing strategy is absolutely brainless. Before you buy this game consider the following: -Single player only goes on for 15 in-game years, at which point you are forced to buy an in-app purchase to continue it beyond (the cheapest is $2.99) so tack that onto the cost of the game. -Multiplayer takes a long time, there is not "fast play" sort of option so the only way to got 30 in-game years is by legging out multiplayer. -Recently the company launched a campaign that promised users 70 free in-game credits (ones you would have to purchase) to anyone who writes positive reviews on the respective app stores (Apple or Google play). And then at the end of the week they would pick the best 3 from each store and those 6 members would get 500 credits each. I find this to be extremely unethical because they are creating falsified reviews; enticing players to give positive reviews for a reward. They are encouraging misinformation and that to me seems like it could be illegal. I don't understand the strategy of this company all the sudden making these moves. I feel as someone who is a loyal player to this company that this ends up making me not want to buy their products in the future and I can't understand why the strategy would change like that I doesn't make any business sense whatsoever. I can't consciously give this game a good review because of those things.


Best game out there!!!

I love this game. It is so good. It is very realistic and teaches you how to own a company. (Mdog) is the name on the game for the owners
