Dec 9, 2019Despite the subpar graphics and lack of character customization, Mad Games Tycoon creates an addicting gameplay loop that fans of the simulation genre will love. Just be mindful of which platform you are buying the game on and at what price… because the game is cheaper elsewhere. That being said, if you enjoy simulation video games and can only get it on Nintendo Switch, it is still worth the asking price.

Jan 9, 2020I know it’s unfair to condemn Mad Games Tycoon for what it’s not — but it’s hard not to do so. After all, when the pinnacle of the genre is available on the same system for a fraction of the price, there’s really no reason why anyone should want to play this over Game Dev Story. It’s a fine effort, but the fact is, it doesn’t come anywhere close.

Nov 18, 2019Mad Games Tycoon is a noble attempt to do something really cool. As someone who loves tycoon simulators, and loves video games, the dream is very much there to have something more serious and deep to replace Game Dev Tycoon. Unfortunately Mad Games Tycoon also struggles to give you a genuine sense of ownership over what you're doing. A very pedestrian presentation, and a sense that you're being pushed to play in a specific way is very antithetical to how the overwhelming bulk of the real world games industry works.

Feb 9, 2020If you truly want to play it, buy it on PC. £10.99 on Steam with it being £35.99 on Switch. Highly unacceptable.
