About Profitania

Profitania, the classic business strategy game from the 1990s, is now live on Steam!

NOTE: Works on all versions of Windows and all versions of Mac up to Big Sur. It does NOT work for Apple Silicon Macs.

Profitania is a dynamic business simulation game, where your mission is to become an industrial titan and build a manufacturing empire.

REVIEWS:

"Far out, wacky sim with business guts." - Games Domain

"One undeniable facet of Profitania is that there's no other non-LavaMind game like it." - Computer Games Magazine

A+++ "Take my advice and purchase Profitania. You will not be sorry you did. I don't have a rating system, but if I did, this game would get an A+++!" - Kids Like Ours

85% "It has everything the budding entrepreneur needs to see if he or she can handle the challenge of business and none of the real cash loss if it doesn't work out." - Exscape

"A game with a great sense of humor, pitting a group of silly aliens on a freaky planet against each other in a non-violent, money-making contest. It's about time." - Happy Puppy

★★★½ "If you are looking for a humorous but reasonably realistic business/manufacturing simulation then Profitania is a good choice." - Intelligamer

"Like its earlier counterparts, it's simple to learn and offers good, if basic, economic lessons and still better fun." - PC Games Magazine

84% "With a lot of new added features and the "real-time" market, Profitania makes for a really good single-player or multi-player game. Your eyes will be dancing all over the screen trying to find the best deals on the "live" market." - Gamers Edge

★★★★★ "This is a non-violent game that would be great for the whole family to play." - Shepherd's Staff

"Profitania is set in a strange but colorful universe. The markets from which you buy your materials operate in realtime, with price fluctuations that make life interesting." - GameZone

"Looking for a fun and unusual holiday gift for the financial-minded in your life? A few words of caution–users claim you'll get addicted." - Bank Info

★★★★★ "Profitania is a fun, family-oriented business simulation that is easy to learn." - Christian Answers

"If you liked the other two great games from LavaMind you are really going to like this one." - Play Testers

"Gameplay is easy to pick up and the compulsion to play just one more turn can be quite strong." - Gone Gold

Not recommended Mar 30, 2020
Finally this absolute classic from my youth is available on steam and I thought I couldn't be happier. However, there seem to be significant bugs. Espionage never seems to be available, all illegal activities seem to be bugged to always fail, and a lot of tool tips have removed most nuance from the game. It's almost as if this kid's game has been made even more for kids. I'm glad I could get back to this game, but I wish the adaptation was focused less away from making it a neutered experience.

Another wacky light business sim from LavaMind. Probably the best of the bunch though Zapitalism has more character. Still to random to be a serious sim, but, that isn't the point of this game. The point of this game is, like all it's kindred, silly fun.

I love the creative art and the fun characters. I always like trying new characters each game and play to their advantages!

Games like Black Myth Wukong: the boss, not the world

Games like Black Myth Wukong have to replace the fight, not the setting: the deflect window, the transformations, the one-more-try pull. These do, from Ashina to Tsushima.

Games like Hollow Knight: one kingdom you have to learn

Games like Hollow Knight are judged on one thing: whether the world is a single place you learn or a menu of levels. These keep it connected, from Pharloom to a well full of secrets.

Anno 117: Pax Romana is free for every Xbox member until Sunday. The Anno 117 price on PC is another matter: 32 readings since late September, and the floor has moved.

Games like Borderlands 3: guns that roll, trees that branch

Games like Borderlands 3 have to do two things at once: roll a new gun every few minutes and make a skill tree worth planning. These manage both, and one asks you to craft instead.

Games like Dragon Age 2: one city, ten years, three acts

Games like Dragon Age 2 are hard to find because almost no RPG keeps you in one city while it rots. These come close, from Neketaka to the streets of Serene.

Games like Remember Me, for the memory remix more than the city

Games like Remember Me, picked for the Memory Remix rather than the neon: minds you can break into, a vertical city to climb, and combos you build yourself.

Games like Noita, where the physics is the real enemy

Games like Noita for the two things it really does: spells you assemble yourself, and a simulated world that takes nobody's side. Seven picks, from a slugcat to a dwarf fortress.
