Small Press Tycoon

This game feels like it shouldn't exist on this plane of reality, but it does and thank god for that. A good game, that has more to tell than what you can hear.

A very simplistic DIY publishing sim that looks and sounds like it came out a good 25 years ago. Print books, get money, buy better equipment, repeat. Sounds repetitive, and it sort of is, but the charming presentation and decent sense of humor keep it entertaining for just long enough to warrant the 1$ pricetag.

It took me a grueling 18 months, but I built a catalog of more than 30 highly-regarded books and raised our average first print revenue to nearly a million dollars. A completely authentic publishing sim.

It is a simple game with some nice music on it. Graphics are like something you see from the Windows 3.1 or Windows 95 days but they aren't the important part of the game. You get to publish all kinds of book types, you can sell them online, in stores and elsewhere, your authors can face cancellation and you got to decide whether to stick with them or not.
