Rise of Industry is a strategic tycoon game that puts you in the shoes of an early 20th-century industrialist. Build and manage your growing empire in a living, breathing, and procedurally generated world that is constantly evolving and adapting to your playstyle.
As a budding entrepreneur, you will build factories, construct efficient transport lines, move raw materials, produce finished goods, and arrange trade with the world's developing cities, providing them with the resources they need to flourish - for as they grow and prosper, so do you.
Designed with an eye towards both accessibility and depth, Rise of Industry has enough strategic complexity and replayability to satisfy the most experienced fans of the genre, while its simple-to-understand mechanics ensure that new players will love it as well.
Experience tailored for every player - Specialise in just trading, production, gathering or any combination and research your way to bigger and better things.
Use PR & Marketing to gain favour (or repair damage) with your business partners.
Choose from over 100 individual products and manage the manufacturing process from harvesting raw materials all the way to delivering the end product to local stores & townspeople
Build and manage a solid transportation network to enable the efficient transfer of goods via plentiful trucks, speedy trains and high capacity airships.
Be prepared for fierce competition – Advanced town and city A.I., make for an intelligent and changing game world so you won’t be the only one looking for the best deal.
Town personalities – adapt a suitable approach for every town or face their economic backlash.
Huge, procedurally generated maps mean that you’ll always have room to expand your empire into whether in testing scenarios or sandbox mode where imagination is your only limit.
Be quick to adapt to the current business climate with contracts and random events keeping you on your toes and cash flowing in.
Balance environmental impact with productivity, trying to meet your neighbouring town's demands.
I really like this game. It's fun, strategic and to me has a very good replay value. It might have little bugs here and there but what EA title doesnt? Thats the whole point of EA, to help the Devs out through the creation process, giving them your suggestions and whatnot. The Devs are very active and will respond to anything you're concerned with. I love a good management challenge and taking control of supply and demand and this is one of those games that will keep you playing for hours. The graphics are really nice. Real smooth gameplay. I think its got a lot going for it right now and the devs are not finished yet so, go check it out.
This game crashes very easily on me, usually when paused and unattended. The debug trace suggests it's doing really nasty things to libpthread (seriously, when's the last time you saw a game create 68 threads? Even if some of them are overhead from Mono, that sounds like a recipe for a programming nightmare). I also find it gets jerky after you've been playing the same world for a while.
That being said, I have gotten a few hours of entertainment out of it, and while it isn't the most brilliant entry in the management sim genre, I think it was worth the sale price I paid for it. I wouldn't have bought it at full price, however.
This game really pulled me in. The game play is fun but challenging in career mode. The random events really make it interesting. All kind of events happen like auctions for contracts in cities to build. So much to tell you about I can't. I've only played career mode, but the game includes sandbox with everything unlocked, scenario's etc... I highly recommend this game to anyone who likes games like Open TTD, Railroad Tycoon and Transport Giant. I think this game is ahead of those by a long way, but don't take my word. You can download the demo right here at the great GOG site. The devs are very helpful and really put some time and thinking into the game. This game is a BIG thumbs up !!
I love this game and can only imagine how much fun it will be once it's fully developed. I haven't felt this way about a game of this genre since I played OpenTT. There's always something to do and decisions to make in a pleasing environment. I can see faults in the game in it's currrent state, but I can also see those faults being addressed in the RoI Discord community, which in turn makes me believe that the end product will be amazing.
