Game Tycoon 1.5 needs a 1.6 patch to fix some out-standing issues, but otherwise provides a solid game as well as a trip down memory lane, from 1982 to present!

Where Game Tycoon falters is in its lack of depth and variety. Although the concept and myriad of options I described in the paragraph above are intriguing, there isn’t a whole lot to it beyond clicking check boxes on the screen and managing company economics.

The great sim that could have been, Game Tycoon is instead a dull entry in a genre that is already overflowing with dull entries.
