Seems hugely complex and I appreciate that. One start down for UI design which is hart to navigate and surprisingly unintuitive.

Extremely in depth simulation

Extremely in depth simulation, with great multiplayer integration. Unfortunately, i believe the microtransactions are slightly predatory, making the game unfair for who don't willing to pay a pretty penny.

I find this app very effective for learning management across different fields. It's intuitive, though a tutorial would be helpful for beginners. I'm glad Virtonomics already has a set of useful tutorial videos on YouTube to fill that gap!

Virtonomics is seriously one of the most underrated business simulators out there.
The depth of economics, production chains, and real-world style management is on another level compared to typical tycoon games. It actually rewards long-term thinking instead of just clicking upgrades.

Been playing for a while now and it feels more like running a real company than a game — especially when markets start reacting to your decisions. Huge respect to the devs for keeping it this complex and alive after all these years.

Cheaper GP please

I just wish the price for GP is much cheaper. To purchase 500 GP gonna cost me a fortune month-worth-average-salary playing in my country. As I grew along the game, I started to realized how raw produce will require GP, it just killed the motivation. Now I understand why selling underwear in Nigeria for $15000 is possible because not many players can pay that much of real money to produce and compete. On top of that, people in Nigeria don't mind to pay for it, made it unrealistic game-balance for players who are not able to pay as much. I don't feel like playing for much longer anymore, although this is such a wonderful game.

nice business sim!

very informative, knowledgeable and easy to understand business simulator, despite some useful features locked to GP, making it slightly unfair for most users. my suggestion is that certain features that could help enhance businesses could be free for most players. still a good recommendation if you wanna practice your industrial skills.

A complete and challenging simulation

This simulation puts you in the shoes of an entrepreneur tasked with conquering markets in retail sales, consumer goods production, intermediate products, and basic commodities such as agriculture, livestock farming, and natural resource extraction. You'll need to manage your human resources, buildings, and suppliers, as well as demonstrate your marketing skills to gain market share. The markets are spread across 43 countries, with macroeconomic data including demographics, wage levels, education levels, wealth, and tax rates.
This is an excellent game for honing your skills in all these areas.

Virtonomics is a great business

Virtonomics is a great business simulation game about company management and economics. I had been looking for a game of this genre for a long time, and I must say I am very satisfied. You can open or buy stores in cities across many nations. Trade many types of goods. Open new factories. Research new technologies. Increase your skills as president. I wanted to start slowly with just a few stores... but then the game hooked me, and in no time, I already have 19 shops, 2 mines, and 6 factories, with others under construction! Truly recommended for anyone who loves this genre! user1678346

This game is missing an introduction walkthrough. I was assigned to play this game for school and could not find where to click for many of the tasks. I had to use AI to direct me where to go to sell my business, what the Trade Hall is, etc. I believe this would have been helpful and made the game more enjoyable.
