How it feels

A methodical, turn-based business simulation that moves at a steady pace as you guide a car company through decades of automotive history.

What players say

Players compare it to the classic DOS game Detroit, but opinions split on whether it captures that magic. Some call it a shallow spreadsheet simulator with poor balance and inflation problems, while others enjoy it as a lightweight, casual car tycoon. The game is sandbox-like with no clear challenges, and many struggle with early bankruptcy.
