What players say
Players are split on this Early Access TV studio tycoon. Some enjoy the creative premise and compare it to Game Dev Tycoon, but most agree the game is very rough and repetitive after a few hours. A consistent warning is that development appears to have stalled around 2025, and the game lacks tutorials, depth, and polish.
