Quite a fun little management game. Though some serious tweaks to UI and Gameplay could be made to increase the fun of this game; >It is very difficult to know where your little people are, when you highlight them. When you click their portrait in the bottom left, you only get their stats and not what they are currently doing, at least it is not immediately clear what they are doing. Maybe a little arrow above that persons head, or a highlight of some sort. Whilst the colours of the shirts are somewhat unique, it gets pretty difficult when you got 8+ little people who have similar shirts (white with black sleeves, or white with brown sleeves) to know where they are. Especially since some of the most unique features about them are often blocked by an activity they are doing (hair covered by VR headsets, or shirts covered by back of chairs when streaming). >The Mini-Games are extremely easy. However sometimes my clicks don't register properly. Often the cursor changes when you are highlighting the correct area, yet you still get the "MISS!" message come up after clicking. This is mostly prominant in the Fighting Mini-Game where you have to hit the head. Whilst the Glove does get a white outline when you're mousing over the right part, upon click you still get "MISS!". The other Mini-Game I get this issue is the FPS, especially when the target is in a corner and covered by a blue target. Even still pressing the part of the Red Target you can see with the Green Crosshair cursor appearing sometimes comes up as a "MISS!". >The hardest part of this game I found was the grind after the 2nd Championship (If you count the Tutorial one as the first). As all the areas in Southern Europe and Asia require some pretty high stats. Almost every single one of these required some grinding, and even then I was only able to complete some of them after beating the championship that they are meant to represent first. Perhaps the events on the world that get unlocked could be a little more tailored for the skill range you are currently at, rather than you complete a Championship and then ignore the new place you unlock until you beat that Championship. Logically it should be that either completing a Championship should unlock the next tier of events for you to attempt (rather than they being two tiers above you, I found) or you get the next regions Championship, and once you complete it, that region unlocks. For instance, currently if you complete Africa, you unlock the events in South Europe and the Middle East along with that Championship. The events in New Delhi etc were pretty difficult to even get the 1 star on with my current team, and required me to complete the rest of the Africa ones first before even trying to attempt the next tier. And by the time I was ready to attempt that tier, I could go and complete the championship anyway since I had completed enough events to do it. >It is not immediately clear you can 'Evict' or 'Fire' your gamers by dropping them in the Trash in the bottom right. If I missed this in the tutorial, please feel free to ignore this point. I spent a large majority of the game with some sub-standard people who only did Scrims until I realised I could fire them. >Scrims appear far too often. It's a constant bombardment of them. It wouldn't be a pain if the latter game didn't require you to have to grind skills and manage Ego so much, but the consistant messages of "CLAN XYZ WANTS TO SCRIM" and the Fame penalty of declining or having to find some space in your build (FYI, there is little space towards the end of the game if you fill your rooms) and then find some people who you don't know what they are doing (See Point #1) is utterly frustrating. Eventually I lost 200 fame because I was just trying to raise my gamers points, which would have taken so much longer if I accepted every single one of these Scrims. Aside from that, it's actually quite a nice game to just sit back, enjoy the humour, recognise some YouTubers who have been put in (AntiSepticEye for instance) and listen to an Imperial rendition of "Still Alive" (or at least it sounds like "Still Alive") from Portal during the Championships. I bought for £6.49 or so, and it probably will last me another hour or two before I complete it. I don't feel there is going to be much replayability unless there is a New Game+ mode added or something similar. The jokes don't really change much per tournament, so the humour is a one-time only affair. Maybe a little variety on the humour would make people enjoy coming back to tournaments.

Not a huge management guy, but after 3+ hours, I can say that this is a great little game with an insane story. - Gameplay starts off slow and simple but really picks up once you upgrade the house and hire more gamers - Relaxing atmosphere allows you to veg out and mindlessly assemble a top tier esports organization - If you know gamer culture (who here doesn't) you'll notice tons of little jokes about the industry/games - Game is roughly the cost of a fat mans trip to McDonalds - Kim Jong Un is one of the main characters... What's not to like?

Really Fun for the first couple of hours, then it gets repetitive and boring, This game would be so much more fun if they added more customization elements, more things to buy and better uses of Fame. If they Devs, took this into consideration, I would very much rethinking about buying the game. I loved my first couple hours of gameplay. Let's pray the DEVs or Dev, focuses on adding more content to this game.

A very fun tycoon/simulator game. My only issue is that once you finish the story there isn't much to do. And it doesn't really inspire to replay. But for 9.99 it's worth the purchase.

Amusing for a few hours. Not worth full price. Wait for a big sale, think I got this for about $2 on a summer sale. For $2, definitely worth the 3-4 hours.

VERY surface level sim. A lot of humor, a little bit too much for me, but I think it would appease most players. It's more linear than I expected, which turned me off quite a bit. The repetitive tasks and the lack of some actual good gameplay, made me feel like the grind was pointless.

This is not your average dry management sim. It's quite unlike anything else I've played, honestly. It's certainly unique enough to be worth your time. There's a weird storyline woven into the game, and I promise it's a story you haven't seen and won't expect. There are really interesting metaphors and funny surprises throughout the game as well. None of the mechanics are particularly deep or challenging, but still manage to be satisfying. The sheer quantity of things to do at any one moment keeps it from getting boring. It's not a long game, and it shouldn't be. It's fun, and it's certainly unique. It's cheap, too, and a bargain on sale. Definitely check this one out.

Look, this game just isn't the right type of video game for me personally. When I see a "casual simulation game." I personally don't expect all this micromanagement. And you might say "it's a simulation, of course it has micromanagement." But I mean that your workers don't have an AI. Like imagine trying to play rimworld where you have to tell every pawn to goto bed, train their skills, ect. It's really stressful at times and I'd advise removing the "casual" tag from this game. Personally, I found "Factorio," one of the most complex simulations to be more "casual" then this game. The game itself really doesn't have that much depth. Most of the diffculty comes from skill rather then complexity. Which is what strikes me as odd with a simulation game. For example, the minigames. I don't have the reflexes to play "rock paper sissors" in the span of 20-30 seconds roughly. I just can't. I also can't ever keep track of all the streamers running around at the same time and try to get each of them, the skills and rest they need. I don't think this game is bad. I just wouldn't recommend it to the majority of simulation gamers. Generally speaking, I play simulation games because I'm fairly terrible at most video games. And I find the challenge of wits to be more entertaining then "how fast can you click?" One major issue is that Linux users should avoid the game at all costs until it is patched. Currently, changing your window size crashes your entire OS. I actually had to reboot my computer, delete my prefs file and play it in a tiny window. If however, you've got lighting fast FPS reflexes, then this is the perfect game for you to enjoy. Overall, this game can be summarized as a "simulation game for COD players who think complex video games hurt their brains."

Memes and real world political issues aside, this is a pretty decent idle/management game that also comes with twitch integration although it does lack replay value as it's possible to get all the achievements in one go

I recommend the game to everyone that is somewhat familiar with Esports, there is a lot of action and humor around it. I had a lot of fun while playing throught the game. It has a story filled with humor, the gameplay is full of action, especially during championships and i laughed my arse off during the cutscenes. The game is said to be partially translated into other languages and as a russian speaker and experienced gamer I found the gameplay to be very intuitive and easy to understand. Totally a must have for those who dont take jokes too seriously. 10/10! Looking forward collecting steam cards!
