Harbor Tycoon Reviews

This game is pretty much shovelware. You could easily get the impression this is an indie developer, however they are the same exact studio as Softwaves, who have made at least two games that are the exact same UI and dynamics, but equally as dreadful according to the reviews. The UI is terrible, the tutorial not very helpful, takes ages to move between turns, the English is sometimes like it was written by a child with some bits in what appears to be French. Various game concepts are not explained, for example what "implements" are (pallets and dunnage maybe?) or about simple things such the relevancy of the tonnage and power. It's a shame really, the game has a lot of potential. It seems like a browser-style game, which is what it would be much better suited as! This has been on my wish list for a few years for some reason so bought it in the sale for a quid. The reviews were bad but thought I would give it a go. I should have listened to them as this was a complete waste of money! MegaSoft Games appears to be the same studio as Softwaves, Softwaves Mini, HandMade Games and GamesBraz, all of which produce similar shovelware and asset flipping games, many with the exact same fonts and style, as well as store page headers. The reviews of the many other games are very telling!

Bought it on sale (like 50% off 5 bucks) and it still really wasn't worth the price. Another review commented that they'd seen more exciting spreadsheets; I'd agree, I've personally had more fun manipulating spreadsheets than playing this game.
