I know most games have ads and you use them to help run the game, but the amount of ads you have is insane. The only other game I’ve seen with the same amount is business empire, it seems like this may be the same creator. An ad every time you click or do anything basically. The packages you can buy are a joke. Because everything you click is and ad and you don’t clear “all ads” when purchasing any package. You give points but because all of your ads your points get drained and you have to pay again. No option for no ads for a month? For a reasonable price like most games. This game is fun, if I didn’t have to literally watch ads the whole time to do anything and with no option to pay to stop all the ads for a period of time instead of your money pit point system you’ve set up. This could be a 5 star game, but you’re making it a 1 star experience and game sadly. Hope to see things I improve in the future but not hopeful 🤞
Let me start by saying that this game was very well designed and lets the user feel as if they were an actual business owner by experience costs and profits. The user will have access to a plethora of content and continue to find ways to make and spend money. The issue that keeps me from playing is the ADS. Now every game has ads and most understand that ads support the creators but this game takes it to another level. Every 3 times you interact with any button, an ad pops up. The worst part is that I would be happy to buy a no ads version, however that is not possible. The creators have deliberately made it to where you can purchase “no ads until they come back” . Basically you get points with the no ad purchase. Once you use said points ( they go by very fast ) ads will return. Very good potential in a game which was ruined by the creators’ greed for ad revenue.
I tried this game because of its similarities to another business simulation game (which I do enjoy). Immediately the difference showed. The game said $1.00 per click, but after hundreds of clicks in different spots, there was no progression. Then when I clicked on something with information, the majority of the screen is just white space covering the information I needed. With no way to do anything, this game is definitely not worth the time.
Business Guru: Tycoon Simulator is more than just a business simulation game. It's an engaging and interactive experience that puts you in the driver'...
