Game Dev Story

I was able to live out my dreams in this game. Thank you so much for providing us with this wonderful experience.

I ultimately don't recommend this unless you're specifically in the mood for a borderline idle game with not much going on mechanically. Pick a console, genre & theme for a game then watch your devs work on it randomly. Very repetitive, very grindy, kind of a chore to finish. But I do think there's personality and charm here so I plan to check out at least one other game by these devs since I think there's room for improvement since this is an early game in their library. Edit: I played another game by them, Demon Castle Story, and liked it a lot more. I recommend skipping this one and trying their other games.

So happy I finally got to play this classic Kairosoft game! It was a lot of fun experimenting and figuring out what worked and what didn't. I think there's a little bit of a learning curve with this one- job switching was way more important than I first realized, and there was a lot of balancing between leveling up employees and spending points to level up a game's stats. I really did like the natural progression of the game, though, and for the most part, each game felt like it did better than the last! Overall, I'd definitely recommend it if you like cozy time management games.

Fondly remember playing this over 10 years ago on old iPad. Bought and been binging the last few days, nostalgia bias aside it still holds up today. Its too easy to lose track of time and there is tonnes of replay value. From a 1997 concept right up to the mobile version of 2010; the game I feel is timeless. Even better if you can get it on sale, a cheap yet feature filled little game with a simple to follow gameplay loop.

Simply here to relive some of my childhood games, and I got it! The achievements are the cherry on top. This was nice.
