About Rise of Industry
✦ AI summary
Build and manage an industrial empire across procedurally generated 1930s maps by constructing factories, managing production chains for 150+ products, and trading with growing cities while competing against cunning AI rivals. Navigate hostile takeovers, random business events, and contract auctions with enough strategic depth for veterans yet accessible mechanics for newcomers.
Rise of Industry is a strategic tycoon game where you build and manage your growing industrial empire in a living, breathing, and procedurally generated world set in the 1930s that is constantly evolving and adapting to your playstyle.
As a budding entrepreneur, you will build factories, construct efficient production lines, move raw materials, produce finished goods, and arrange trade with the world's developing cities, providing them with the resources they need to flourish - for as they grow and prosper, so do you.
However, it won’t always be a smooth ride to magnate status. Random business events and stock auctions will keep you on your toes, all while A.I. rivals compete for market share and look for ways to grow and exploit enemy weaknesses - beware of the hostile takeover.
Designed with an eye towards both accessibility and depth, Rise of Industry has enough strategic complexity and replayability to satisfy the most experienced fans of the genre, while its simple-to-understand mechanics ensure that new players will love it as well.
- Experience tailored for every player - Specialise in just trading, production, gathering or any combination and research your way to bigger and better things.
- Bid for contracts to get the upper-hand over your rivals.
- Produce over 150 individual products, managing every step along the way from raw material to end product. Only the highly skilled entrepreneur will complete the complex production chains and take items such as cars, computers and other luxury products to market.
- Build and manage a solid transportation network to enable the efficient transfer of goods via plentiful trucks, speedy trains and high capacity airships.
- Be prepared for fierce competition – Advanced town and city A.I., make for an intelligent and changing game world so you won’t be the only one looking for the best deal.
- Town personalities – adapt a suitable approach for every town or face their economic backlash.
- Huge, procedurally generated maps mean that you’ll always have room to expand your empire, whether in testing scenarios or sandbox mode where imagination is your only limit.
- Be quick to adapt to the current business climate with contracts and random events keeping you on your toes and cash flowing in.
- Balance environmental impact with productivity. Churn out the products at the expense of nature, or be a conscientious industrialist, balancing the delicate lay of the land with your hunger for profit.

I feel unable to either reccomend this game or not do it, yet I feel compelled to talk a little about why I (but that's myself) didn't fully enjoy it. Didn't play for long. I first thought it was a straight shooter, where it all was about logistics and setting up production lines. However, the more I played, the more I felt I was lacking information or tools to focus on that. I felt I was spending more time trying to figure out the ratios of every moving part so the system could manage without falling apart instead of using info provided to focus on long term bigger goals. And I felt it was that way by design. I also felt I had no way of tackling the main bottleneck that would show early on every new game; traffic and delivery. When talking positives, super clean aesthetic, I liked that very much. Decent soundtrack too. Not bad. Not what I look for on a economic/building/management type of game. I reccomend you try it if what I said appeals to you.2 found this helpful

As long as you go into this game on the understanding that it is just a game, not real world sim, it's fun.
好玩 但是每几个小时随机闪退
Dead Game. Devs have given up on it. It's infested with bugs. Don't waste your money folks...
Very frustrating, mostly due to the UI. It's extremely difficult to figure out how profitable a given product, facility or route is, which obviously makes the game far harder than it needs to be while also making the entire experience more annoying than it should be. It also makes just learning the game needlessly difficult because you cannot get clear feedback about whether you have made a good or bad investment, let alone why that investment might be good or bad. If you can get past this hump the game is... ok. It's got a pleasant zen quality where you can just spend a bunch of time hopping around expanding production chains in a way that isn't very involved but is quite relaxing. However the game doesn't have much depth. It took me about 10 hours of banging my head against the game to actually understand how it work and be able to make any progress at all. Then in less than that time I was able to complete all the achievements, including the dlc (except for a handful of ones that just involve mindless grinding). Even if learning the game wasn't a huge pain it would be hard to recommend at anything less than a deep discount. P.S. The 2130 soundtrack is really good. Great cyberpu…
