Business Strategy Games

[Vicked]

Im a HUGE fan of business strategy games, does anyone know of any GOOD little known ones for the amiga, Im pretty sure Ive played them all. Plus does anyone know if Software Manager has an english version Ive searched for years but only ever found the german version.

[birdy-scc]

It's a good idea if you post the list of what you've played, then the people who will help will know what you want.

I've never been a fan of those business games myself, but here was one called Pizza Tycoon that was fairly well made. I think it's just a PC game though.

Detroit
Pizza Connection
Software Manager (GERMAN!!!!!)
Alot on the PC
Some PD games

I'm pretty sure Pizza Tycoon wasn't released on the Amiga, but if you say it was, just released under a different name, then ok

[Akira]

Pizza Tycoon = Pizza Connection. I saw it on a site and I might have it somewhere. I think it only got released in Germany but I Could be well wrong.

[Drake1009]

Well regardless of wether it was released in germany or not, I've only managed to find german versions of the game for the Amiga.

If anyone do manage to turn up an english version I'd be glad.

[Fred the Fop]

Drake:laughing
For someone who lives close to Germany, I'd expect you to know some measure of German:)
I speak and read (read much better) maybe 45 percent fluent German, and playing games in German is a great way to learn the language. Thats why I like to have say, an English D Day, a French one too. An English 1869, and a German one. But, an English version of Pizza Connection would be nice:)

[Vicked]

Thanks for the list of games Fred, I havent heard of heaps of em!
Which are the best do u think? I like the sound of:

WildWestWorld
Big Business
7CitiesOfGold
Oldtimer
Shepherd, The

And is pimp tycoon a real game? :)

Also is Software Manager english?

[Amigaboy]

The Shepherd is a shareware game

I don't really remember it (I played it years ago), but from what my memory is telling me, it's a bit like Populous?

Bleh. No idea. My memory sux

[ptrchiappe]

So it was released after all, probably only in Germany as i've never seen it here.

Now, can you tell us all how much "interesting" is it ? :cheese

[RetroMan]

Well, the grafix is very nice and it´s very playable as a buisness strategy game as well ;) If you like such games and some sort of .... uhhh..... Erotic (if you want to call it that way !) it´s well worth a buy ....

[RetroMan]

After all I can proof the existance of WET cause I just bought it from EBay :D

[Ian]

Because noone had posted in this thread for ages when the picture was deleted and it's space that could be used better elsewhere:D

The picture was there for about a month, plenty of time I think:)

[RetroMan]
