Form your own high-powered software team and dominate the world's market for computer games!In the early eighties, software developers shot up all over the world like toadstools. It was the birth of a new industry. Computers and consoles began a triumphant advance into people`s homes and spread like wildfire. Software, particularly computer games, sold like hot cakes. This development began with simple games such as Pong, but soon progressed to much more complex programs which created their own market, a battlefield from the very beginning. These early days of the industry are the background for the company you are about to start: Armed with a small amount of start-up capital, the year is 1982 when you set out to conquer the games market. Develop your own game concepts, create a team and conquer the world. They say competition is good for business, but never forget that you have cutthroat rivals for the dominance you are seeking...

Software Tycoon (Mac) review
Software Tycoon plants you into the role of an emerging game software developer during the 1980's. The goal of the game is to conquer the growing computer games market, growing your start-up capital into an awe inspiring empire.
Software Tycoon will have you developing your own game consoles and games. But beware of your competitors, computer and video games development can be a cut-throat business.
Overall, not a very solid game, quite slow and a little tedious.
