How it feels

You start with nothing and build a business empire from the ground up, feeling a satisfying sense of progress as you grow from a cramped apartment to luxury and corporate power.

What players say

Players praise the addictive loop of building a business empire from nothing, but the late game leans heavily on repetitive hiring and negotiations. Several split on whether the complexity is rewarding or tedious, and the employee schedule system is widely called broken.
