I have no shame in admitting I did pirate the game at some point to try it out yet never truly went too deep given there was no way to save the process on the long run. Now that I have, I can confidently say it was well worth the money, the DLC as well even if just to have an extra race for variety. Thank you so, so much for the hard work!
What we usually understand as a Tycoon game is the game giving you the tools to begin "x" from scratch. This game however already has begun most of it for you, so no custom setup of the building or decorations. Shops and cashiers and working places are already placed in for you. Only thing you gotta do is click a few buttons and suddenly you got a working apothecary where you decided none of the important bits that make a Tycoon game. It's not bad, it's just.... it's just.
