Title: Can you recommend a good business simulation game? Post by: steven on April 18, 2009, 04:54:39 AM I still play from time to time Capitalism 2 and Patrician 3. They are really old, but I can't seem to find anything new at least as good as those two.
From the newer games I managed to enjoy for a few days SimCity4 and Industry Giant 2... and they are actually 6+ years old too (damn, time goes by so fast) Title: Re: Can you recommend a good business simulation game? Post by: SnakeCharmer on April 18, 2009, 06:13:12 AM Monopoly.
Alternatively, invest in the stock market using e-trade. Title: Re: Can you recommend a good business simulation game? Post by: Xanthippe on April 18, 2009, 06:32:14 AM I enjoyed Entrepreneur by Stardock, but it's no longer being made. Apparently there's a sequel, The Corporate Machine:

Post by: NiX on April 18, 2009, 09:26:34 AM Just got finished using this (http://www.bsg-online.com/). Of course, it's really meant for students/teachers, but I've heard of cases of groups of people signing up with friends to have a go at it.

Title: Re: Can you recommend a good business simulation game? Post by: Righ on April 18, 2009, 03:41:20 PM Business simulations are trivially simple to make in this economic climate, so I expect SimBailout will be with us sooner than later.

On the plus side though, the Business Academy at one of my schools may find it useful. Title: Re: Can you recommend a good business simulation game? Post by: NiX on April 24, 2009, 03:59:07 PM It's not actually "Online". Though they could make a boat load marketing that as a casual game for people who like spreadsheets and crunching numbers.

Title: Re: Can you recommend a good business simulation game? Post by: rk47 on April 28, 2009, 08:34:56 AM Wow i always thought of EVE that way too. The way they kept track of your 'employment history' in game. And the pay structures that every corporation that can have as well as logistics involved when building space stations. Although I never played it, it seemed 'believable' enough to exist in game.
