What players say

93% of 8,032 reviews are positive · 93% of 33 in the last 30 days

Players praise the depth, varied ways to run a company, office construction, and continued updates. Common complaints focus on the dense interface, steep learning curve, weak tutorials, and mechanics that can feel bloated or tedious. Some also say co-op is misleading because each player runs a separate company with limited interaction.
