Project Highrise is easy to get lost in, both in a good sense of not noticing how the hours fly by as well in a bad sense of that many types of units have various requirements which may at first seem difficult to get a grasp on. After having taken a bit of time to learn about what requirements are needed for what (and realized i.e. that there is a key shortcut to lay e.g. electrical lines for a floor with one click), I found that variety to be a very nice part of the game tho as it offers room for creativity about what type of building one wants. That is that one can focus on having plenty of small offices (of which there are various types) or rather aim to get some corporate HQ/s settled in the building, and/or similarly about apartments. Shops and restaurants come also in various tiers and types, such as with restaurants ranging from small coffee shops and bakeries to large i.e. sports bar and luxury restaurants.

In terms of overall construction it is also somewhat variable, as in that if one wants to build e.g. an upside-down pyramid, not a problem. All that comes with also a range of decorative items one can add. And support for mods (and Steam Workshop) expands on all that even more.

The game comes with a tutorial, a sandbox mode (with different difficulties) and a variety of scenarios which have specific requirements to be achieved.

What I did find not so great about the game is that if one happens to be in a situation of all loans taken and little income where it may take a few in-game days to get enough funds so one can build the next floor (and one already knows what all is in the build-menus), one can't open the in-game reports windows without the game pausing, and even opening Steam overlay pauses the game. And while the game is graphically nice enough in my view for game-play, besides the movement of people in the building there isn't really anything to watch going on, which all made it in that mentioned situation somewhat boring to me. Also, a simple campaign mode would seem nice for such a quite modern game, as in some town map where one could purchase plots for building after having amassed some money from first build with that first build perhaps still giving interest or possible to sell (with such perhaps even being connected to some leader-boards of sorts). Other than that tho, I enjoyed playing it and would be quite hyped if they would announce a 3D sequel for it.

For a small relatively cheap DLC which calls itself "content pack", I was pleasantly surprised about that such content does quite expand on the possibilities of types of shops that can be built. There also are a few additions to other build options, such as i.e. larger storage and ice-cream stand. And it adds a few more scenarios to game.

But if a player didn't care much prior for building shops and doesn't care for building a shopping center, there isn't really anything beyond that in this DLC.

This DLC comes down to whether one wants to play with random (or spawned) natural disasters or not.

If one does, then this DLC certainly adds quite some to make that game-play more interesting (and arguably also more realistic). Easily at least 4 stars for this DLC in such case.

If one does not, then from what I noticed the only thing usable for such game-play added by this DLC is just a police and firefighter helipad each, and the DLC's price sure seems quite expensive for merely that addition.

Firstly, Train Fever is years older than Transport Fever, with Transport Fever having besides trains, trucks, buses and trams also airplanes and ships, campaign, more refined goods production, other features, and a reworked game engine of theirs. Nevertheless, Train Fever seems to be on sale a lot cheaper, I still play it to pick up the last few achievements I don't have, and I find it itself still enjoyable after around 50 hours of game-play (and 90 hours of Transport Fever game-play).

As the product description says it is a modern-day Transport Tycoon, but it has some differences in terms of game-play mechanics, with on the downside being that it has no AI faction whatsoever nor any multiplayer.

In regard to other differences, one is about how passengers and goods behave, with in Train Fever there being a so-called "20 minutes rule" - which means that if a passenger or piece of raw material/goods doesn't reach final destination within 20 minutes from house starting point, then they/it disappear on that journey (or do not even start the journey). Those 20 minutes are in game-terms 20 months, with info screen showing how long it takes i.e. a train to make a full forth-and-back journey. So if there is a single train with capacity of 50 units of oil on a line with round time of 6 minutes, then that means that the maximum capacity of delivery within one game year is 100 units of oil. (And due to that it usually not advisable to set a line to wait for full load as it worsens that round time.)

And another difference is about how industry behaves as in that i.e. oil well doesn't start producing unless there is demand from an oil refinery which doesn't have that demand unless there is demand for goods from a town - which simply means that one needs to have both an operating line for delivery of goods from refinery to town, and a line for delivery of oil to refinery, established before the oil well begins producing at all.

Mentioning those differences may sound from me as if it were a very complicated game, but just mentioning it a bit in detail as to save eventual reader/purchaser time digging in tutorial texts or forum about why their line is not functioning while perhaps used to that Transport Tycoon game-play where a coal mine throws out as much coal as a train can take.

Other than that, similar to Transport Tycoon it does have town growth if supported, and one can similarly quickly end up having various train tracks independent of each other with plenty of overpasses and tunnels or having plenty of train tracks in some kind of network while playing around with rail signals to make it work so no train does get stuck. So if you are into that kind of stuff then you are probably going to enjoy Train Fever. However, if price is not an issue then you may want to look at Transport Fever, which is improved in several aspects.

Game Corp DX is a video game about running a company making video games. I enjoyed a playthrough of it, which lasted a few hours, but there isn't really anything to come back to afterwards in terms of that once office is as large as it gets and staff has been trained and is experienced it becomes a repetition of clicks to chunk out AAA games with nothing different about it all if one starts a new playthrough. Besides that, good game.

With the current version 1.73, it has a total of 12 airports, with the latest additions having been in Feb 2016. Comes with Steam achievements and trading cards. I received my copy as a free bonus to purchase during sales event.

As for the gameplay, it is kept relativly simple without need to study any manual while also being somwhat complex in terms of tactically and strategically managing the flow of traffic. That is that while airplanes will keep being inbound on every runway to land (for which the landing runway can be changed tho such as sending all to one runway only which then tho requires managing avoidance of collision already for inbound planes among each other, speed increased or lowered, or kept flying around for a bit), on the ground it is about getting landed planes to the terminals and then off the ground quickly as to avoid traffic jams while in all that avoiding collisions for any craft on any runway (which can become impossible to avoid when a huge traffic jam built up). With all that comes voice-confirmation of orders given, as in "Big jet five-seven, cleared for take-off, runway two-four-right.", which can be turned off tho. And there are a few modes available to play in, with focus on moving 100 planes without collision, or making it an amount of time without collision, or as in high-score play mode with challenges such as a runway becoming unavailable to use for some time (with score penalty if it is used).

All in all, for myself who enjoyed playing e.g. Kennedy Approach (which is more about altitudes and vectors than runways tho), a great find for the simple one-screen game it is. To a connoisseur of the genre probably too casual or simply not as pleasing as similar yet 3D versions (of which not all are on Steam), ergo this game arguably being more of a themed puzzle game than a simulation, but I find it to be enjoyable in itself anyhow.
