About the game
A management sim where you become the president of a small game developer, hire staff and combine genres and themes to make and sell games. The more you train your staff and find good combinations, the better the reviews your games receive. It first came out on PC in 1997 and became widely known when the mobile version was released in 2010. Cute pixel art and short play sessions make it great for the commute.
Why we recommend it
A classic mobile management game in which growing a small game company to make hit games is simple yet highly addictive.
Good for — Great for: anyone who wants an easy-to-pick-up management game on their phone
