I happen to be a fan of the Tycoon games (Rollercoaster, Lemonade, Plant...ect). It might just be the same mentality of the SIMs, being able to play god. Anyway, what sort of Tycoons do you like? What kind of tycoon game would you like to see? ( ______Tycoon).

"I like games" is not a computer science topic.

 

Moved to general discussion.

lol, thanks Sayo.

I just got Plant Tycoon for the palm, and Im semi-obsessed. Does anyone know somewhere to get hints/tips for the game? Its actually pretty fun.

 

I would like to see a game like "Chem Tycoon", where you start off in a small lab, with not so much money, and a few chemicals. after messing with different combinations of chemicals, you would make some special cures, and get money, and getting to use a better lab, or maybe winning a few awards.

u wanna make these? or are you just setting up a thinktank?

I suppose that we could make these, but I was really just making a thinktank. Anyone else have an idea?

apparently not

I thought after the LOTR was just being released (The Fellowship) that it would be cool to have a version along the Age Of Empires/Age Of Mythology line but was taylored to LOTR. Too late. After that, I was happy.

mmmm... Roller Coaster Tycoon is a classic, and a favorite of mine. Has anyone tried Lemonade Tycoon yet? Zoo Tycoon isn't bad either.

 

It'd be cool to have Research Lab Tycoon. Set up your own laboratory, conduct research, get money and grants to buy new equipment...think of the possibilities!

Honestly, the tactics never change and so no matter what type of tycoon you develop it will seem too similar to another.

But, it's the variety of the contexts are what make the games great.

True, but once you've learned to beat one, the others aren't much of a challenge.

lol, I like Lemonade Tycoon, its fun for a small business operator

I really like the idea of the Lab Tycoon, and I think we might make a project out of it (later). But does anyone else have an idea for a type of tycoon? Also does anyone else have Plant Tycoon? It's so hard! Need some help
