Car Manufacturer Tycoon for Android
Keep on seeing "simple" but it's not. The game has many facets, and you'd have to play it at least 4 or 5 times, before the basics become clear. No user manual, too many options to click, that will ruin your company. Not really a learning ramp... I rate it 2 star.
It's a good idea and concept but the math behind the game is weird from time to time, you always go bankrupt. You can never make a big seller. And as you reach around lvl 10 your cars outdate very fast. I'd love this game if its economy was good.
It's a interesting concept. Though I don't fully understand which car sells and stuff like that I think the furthest level I got to was 6 and yet I have no clue on how to increase car ratings. It doesn't really have a learning curb it's just the game is very vague for the most part.
Don't like the the motion tab and having to go back and forth to make the vehicle match what the industry wants. Its annoying and takes time away from the game. One time to look and go back would be fine but guessing what influences what sucks. It should be direct and say this adds so many points in utility and takes performance or vice versa or something. Otherwise love it and would play it religiously.
No graphics, horrendous tutorial with very little to learn from it. The game isn't intuitive and you're practically setup to fail unless you spend actual money on it. If anything it seems to me the creators just made an automatic review generator to boost up this app. Don't bother in downloading this waste of space.
At the start it is vary fun but i came into a little disturbance when i try and sell my cars. Even though, i have everything to the market trend like if the trend is sporty i have my cars sporty and have good performance but it will tell me that it is not conformed to the market trend and i get no sales and its starting to get vary annoying. I just wish you could fix this and it would be a great game.
Such a shame. Unfortunately this is the product of lazy developers who couldn't be bothered to produce clear instructions on how to play. Things such as how to increase ratings.etc. Got to the point of making cars conforming to market trends only for the rating to not be up for the job. Game looks good at first but is rubbish. Don't bother wasting your time.
I work on cars for a living so I thought I'd try it out. Haven't seen ads which is refreshing, and I've been playing nonstop since I downloaded it. I wish there were more options which is why I only gave 4 stars, but seeing as how most people who play this game probably know nothing about cars it's understandable. Overall great game.
It's good and free. Yes Free! But the downhill for me is the rating of the cars. I'd rather make it under 100 with randomise ratings from 10-99. Now the rating is exceed 200 and it's seriously weird for me. Eventho the key is to upgrade everything but still it's better to pick other ways.
This is game has a rather nice concept and somewhat simple yet challenging game. Would you please add something so the player wont be easily goes bankrupt ? and improvement on interface may be needed for the better gameplay
That is an amazing game! I like strategies like this one, where you have a comprehensive control over every operation and process in the game. The attention to details is remarkable: there's a whole lot of options for every kind of tactics, from innovations research to corporate espionage! The mechanics of the game are well thought-out, and the design is slick and intuitive. I most certainly recommend it.
It looks like a pretty good game but I can't finish the tutorial because when I am making a blueprint I can't seem to move on to the design part. When I fill in the concept section and try to go on to the design section, it tells me that I didn't complete the concept section.
The gameplay is pretty fun but having to change the motion of the car again and again gets irritating. There's a bug which I noticed, it's that when you are doing the concept of the car it sometime doesn't recognize the changes you're making and gets stuck at 9%. Please have some sorry of a save game mechanics in the game. Otherwise pretty addictive. Thanks
Its a great concept and things are well put together, but it is impossible. There is no scaling or balance. You can't get bigger because research and development is way to expensive. A glitch where my money just disappears. You just can't make a lot of money because nothing works. Also, the percentages for RnD are not even close to accurate. Most average about 50% which makes things impossible. Like, how do you make such a great game and then mess up every aspect just enough to make it unenjoyable. Please fix it! Also, like how the hell do reach the big ends of the game. It's a grind, fix it so it becomes for user friendly. I don't want to design a car every 3 terms and then do it all again with such little return.
This game has a great concept, but the tutorial teaches you the absolute minimum, and I think the game sets you up for failure. It's almost impossible to win without spending money, and for that reason alone I've refused to spend a dime on it.
A small learning curve, and slightly confusing. Even when you stick to market trends, a car blueprint will leave you bankrupt. Maybe I'm missing something, but still trying to figure it out. I had a few good runs.
In blueprint build. Keeps saying finish concept. I already finished it but keeps saying it. Won't let me go forward with game
I have been looking for a replacement to the old DOS game "Detroit". This game is not even close. There are no graphics. You setup cars (which takes way too many steps to do) to match customer requirements. You sell, sell, and sell. Customer demands change every 3 or 4 sells. Then you have to make another car to match customer demands. You can only sell one model at a time. There are no reports, competitors, or graphics, just numbers. Also you can develop technology, but to apply it, you have to rebuild all cars from scratch, they can't be edited. This game is very entry level and not very user friendly. The old DOS game was light years ahead of this. Sad.
Very good time waster. I like to play it all the time! Really simple to play and can be understood easily. Some of the information about the cars may be confusing to the "newbies", but is straight foward. Kverall, great game.
Well, i love the concept and systematics of this game were executed, honestly its make me addicted. I give this game as a pioneer on terms of company game. Its make you want to imagine the car you make with enough detailing information but less visualization. This game has its own essence.
Can be pretty difficult at times. I really love the graphics and animations. My only real problem is that I suck at budgeting
Decent concept but.....game forces a shortage of $ early on. Expensive unlocks and research in order to get you to make in game purchases will real $. Imagine that, another greedy app.
I think the game is nice and awesome, but one problem, the Car Identifier, I've googled what is a Car Identifier and it said "composed of 17 digits (and capital letters) but in the game, it only have 8 digits. So I'm confused. Also the Car Identifier is a bit buggy (in my opinion). example: I tried all possible Vehicle Identifier Number (VIN/Car Identifier) and it didn't worked, only sometimes when I type some thing random in it...... So please fix that.
A solid management game so far, nothing too complex but it also feels respectful of the player's intelligence--there's more going on than "press this button at the right time to win" or "wait for a while and then buy the one thing you unlocked". Refreshing to see something like this.
Pretty complicated game though I understood everything in a couple of munites. The tutorial was basically useless though... I would conclude it as the game is nice
Game has potential, but is unplayable. Aside from the constant pressure to innovate (hard to do with no capital) there's a bug where if you sell cars, sometimes you only get back your profit and not the total cash you earned on the sale. This means you potentially lose out on millions of dollars. Putting this game away for now until they fix the issues.
My in-game balance went into the negative after I created my 2nd blueprint. It was way too hard to make a profit.
So far it seems to be a well done tycoon manager type game. It takes a bit to figure out what you need and it would be better to have some sort of focus group button to help you get an idea what customers want in a car with varying degrees of success in prediction, (we all know focus groups don't always work)
Doesn't seem to make sense at all. I would get a crazy good rating for a car blueprint, and then I wouldn't be able to sell many units at all cause nobody wants it. Developers need to work on it
The game is good, concept is awesome. There is one thing need to be added that is the car images, with the all the things what we are manufacturing with all details such as logo, name, interior, exterior,etc. Otherwise the gameplay is good enough. Awesome....
Really great game. Almost everything perfect l, but... there's always a but. I think you should be able to make a plan so that a certain one of your car blueprints are sold every month or something. So you can have ongoing sales.
Great simulator. It's difficult to stay ahead but trends become easy to work with. Some advice - Spend tokens on cheap technologies and every team you have a new one unlocked, create a new platform with all tech. It will keep you ahead. Match or exceed the trends and use the most expensive parts that will still allow the vehicle class. Trend changes every 3 Auto sales. Always trade to higher tier boosts. Keep price no higher than 69% profit and don't check either box underneath. And Always use automatic efficiency purchase with the auto parts. It will buy what you need for each auto... Though it may be more expensive in the long run. Enjoy! It's fun the try and reach the billionaire status!
Need work...every time it's showing utility is less than market trend..why's is utility? What comes under it? Can u explain what happens in ur game?
It's too difficult to get good car ratings. I've followed all of the market trends, I set the retail price at 20,000, sometimes less, I do fake emission tests, negotiable prices, and I still only get 2 stars!? Why is that?
No idea how this is getting such a high review score. Very little is explained, there are no graphics, controls are mediocre at best.
Awful doesn't work after tutorial no matter what you do you always lose money and they only way to continue is to buy more! Don't waste your time!!
Great time passer, had me.hooked within 10 min but lost interest after the bugs took over and I just couldn't finish designing the blueprints of the vehicle
It's a Good game sometimes an issue with things as in cars don't sell. And should be able to not have to totally redesign car just to make a sub model
I liked it but every time I try to configure a new car it says configure concept first. I can't design it or anything. Stuck at the first compact car

Great game, worth a play thru. Graphics could be better when it comes to the blueprint screen (the cars don't adjust much when you change styles). Couple notes: bankruptcy sucks
