Jun 6, 2021It's fun and interesting for a while, then to me just turned into a 'send your employees on vacation' simulator. You end up spending more time on vacation than working it seems. So I wanted to play further, but it just got too tedious / boring because literally you're just making money to send people on vaca. The idea is interesting but follow-thru in reality was a miss for me.

Feb 1, 2022For the most part, Startup Panic is clean, competent, and amusing. I wish I could say more than that about it, but I don’t feel like the game goes in hard enough on its premise. It’s fine if you’ve been looking for a new company-tycoon title (particularly one that does not involve you developing video games), but if what you’re looking for is biting satire of capitalism, it doesn’t commit hard enough to being that, and that wasted potential is what’s left me struggling to find anything to say about it.

Jan 24, 2022An endearing and smartly written business management sim with depth that transcends its mobile origins, but pacing issues that betray them.

Jan 20, 2022Startup Panic is a smart, fun game that’s almost dangerously engaging. When business is booming, it’s difficult to pull away, especially as the revenue starts to creep up. When business is bad, there’s that “one more game” mentality as the player endlessly crafts more features, completes contracts and makes marketing decisions to boost revenue and user numbers. It’s not a one-to-one comparison of what it’s like to be the CEO of a new tech company by any means, but it is a glimpse into that lifestyle - just pixelated and much, much less stressful.
