“StockUp”
Again, “…gameplay could be utterly broke by some interface glitch”, but unlike “To the Capital”, this Capitalist-Idling-Sim don’t even need your attention. No, actually it may don’t even need you. So…
:/ Uninteresting.
Stockup, c’est l’un de ces jeux qui peut se retrouver complètement pété par un bug d’interface, comme l’est “To the Capital”.
Fascinant ?
Pas vraiment, car contrairement à ce dernier, ce Sim’Boursicoteur sait courir tout seul, et c’est à peine s’il daigne avoir besoin de votre contribution.

Its bad. Bit misleading, all it is, is numbers will go and down and its flip of coin if goes up and down simliar to the markets but at least in the markets you have some idea what you trading in profile, charts etc….
The layout is bad as well, the news report is difficult to read with all information cramed in one spot.
Serious updating is needed.

Global Soccer: A Management Game 2019
This is a brilliant little game, I do wish however there were more updates. Some improvements would be very nice. Some like searching by position, having club badges and kits and upto date league structures.
I hope more updates will come as I’m enjoying it :)

Unfortunately I have the same problem, game silently crashes around week 8 or so leaving steam thinking it is still running. No other option than a total reboot.
I too have no idea how I send the dev my save file, or even where it is for that matter.
Still £6 or so for 15 hours isn’t bad, what else can you get for that price?
Quite happy to change my rating should this problem be sorted, as somewhere in here there is a fun game that doesn’t tax the grey matter too much

Zhulik.exe
I will NOT indulge this time into talking about the translations of this game - I think that every review of mine has a small section dedicated to my native tongue, when it’s available, and this game is translated into Italian too among dozens of other languages. Needless to say, the translation is horrible.
Some weird site told me “zhulik” stands for “rogue” in Russian but I won’t even spend too much time into this.
If you are looking for achievements, this game has 19 of them and they can be obtainable within 30-40 minutes: they require to farm money by clicking the correspondant button, and with that money you’ll have to buy some upgrades and few other things. I think it’s impossible not to 100% this game.

Energy Island Corp.
In Electric City Manager, you’ll manage an electric grid on small islands. When you arrive on an island, there is only few inhabitants and no electric facilities.
It’s your job to build a robust electric grid which can support the development of the island in every domain: tourism, industry, residential, health, …
Every day starts with a preparation phase. You can construct new buildings, buy raw materials and manage different aspect of your grid.
When you’re ready, the clock starts and you can see in real time, minute by minute the electricity quantity you produced and the electricity being consumed by the city.
It’s important to produce enough electricity to match the demand and avoid power outage. On the other side, producing too much electricity will damage all your electric grid and waste a lot of money.
-
Make your own energy mix: Solar panels only produce when sun is up, oil generators are expensive to run, … Each primary energy has its own characteristics, you must mix them to find the better balance.
-
Manage raw materials supply: Some buildings need resources (oil, coal, …) to run. You must buy them at best price, and build infrastructure to store them.
-
Watch electricity production / consumption: Managing an electric grid is hard. Electricity is hard to store, consumption vary between consumption peaks and low demands periods. Adapt yourself and manage your grid with information you get from the production / consumption chart.
POWER
I recommend this game but there are some major things missing from it.
Missing from international diplomacy:
-Sanctions
-Illegal annexations
-Proxy-wars (non-declared wars)
-Any international punishment system VIA the UN at all (that has been demonstrated)
-International court/UN positions that manage world politics
-smaller countries (Belgium, Netherlands, Ireland, Korea(s)) that don’t necessarily play a roll in world politics as heavily as the current nations
-secession (though that may be hard to do)

Now don’t get me wrong, I’m enjoying my time with this game so far. But I would NOT recommend it to anyone. Unless you have very specific interests in you game mostly involving chatting on Discord apparently. I’m having fun bumbling through and clicking around and being sort of a maverick. But honestly the community seems REALLY toxic (as you might expect) and overall this game is just not what I thought it would be. I’m just playing every free game I can get my hands on right now until Cyberpunk 2077 comes out, cause I’m SOOO bored of everything else I own right now. If you’re in a similar boat, or feel like toxic discord servers are where you thrive, give the game a try then.

Astonishing Baseball Manager 21
Astonishing Baseball (or AB for friends) is not your usual baseball simulation game. It’s not only about tables full of players and stats. It’s about people! Well okay, you heard that line from your Economics 101 class already. But I promise, this game will be way more interesting! It’s like a narrative roguelike sports game, Seriously!
What’s new in AB21
Already an AB player? Here are some of the main new features:
-
Play historic seasons or try our brand new scenarios. There’s a challenge for every kind of coach!
-
Always play for the best team in the new career mode
-
A new minor team system, where you can hire your coach and train your rookies!
-
Edit the portrait of your favorite player, or import an online logo for your team!
-
Congratulate your starter, taunt your rival or ask your fans what to do with your new rookie thanks to the Bleachers message creator!
-

-
Join the excitement of the draft thanks to the new Draft projections, or the top prospect interview

-
Pick the menu at your stadium, and hire a chef to get the prestigious ballpark awards!
-
Show who’s the boss in the new World Cup, or admire the best players in the Power Contest and Pitching Contest.
-
And more, like league records, improved game simulation, smarter AI, new awards, legendary players… Too much to describe here!
Fake (but real) baseball players
AB is about fake (sorry, virtual) baseball players. Some you’ll like, some you will hate, and a lot of them you will LOVE! That anonymous “Jim” guy at the top of your lineup? Give it a few minutes, and he will become your favorite player ever. Or maybe he’s actually very bad, and you’ll send him finish his career in your minor league team, because he disappointed you. Poor Jim…
And that starter, Sandy. Is he an ace or not? Well, maybe you should train him a bit. And make sure you have solid relievers to help him if a left-handed batter is giving him a headache. After all, you’re paying him 12M a year, that’s a lot! And he’s asking for an even bigger extension contract now. Not sure you’ll like Sandy after all… Oh but look, his nickname is “Cubbie”, that’s so cute!
Watch them evolve!
One of your tasks is to draft rookies. And once you’ve drafted your first prospect… Let’s call him John okay? Well, you’re going to be very interested in John’s life. Where to put him in the lineup? How much training does he need? Do I start him everyday, or does he need to go to the minor leagues first? Why is he suddenly struggling? Wait, it’s getting better… HE’S THE MVP NOW! But is he really worth 20M per year? See, it never stops!
The lineup of your dreams
Okay so the team is not too bad these days, but you want to do a big move and win the Baseball Cup. Is it time to do a big trade with another team? Or maybe it would be better to wait next year and sign a big free agent during the offseason? Or maybe do both? One thing is sure, building the lineup of your dream is actually super hard! And you haven’t even tested the “Extreme Mode” yet. Or maybe you want freedom and receive job offers from other teams too. In that case, the career mode is for you!
A living world
Astonishing Baseball features an artificial but living world. Fans are posting about the game and your brand new rookie. Journalists write articles about your starter’s last night performance. Players send you messages about their concerns or their contract. It’s all about baseball! Fortunately, all these people are very positive persons! Except if they complain about their contract. Or their role in the lineup. Or the team performance… Well, it could be worse. It’s not like they’re French and complain all the time, right?
For baseball fans and stats nerds
Astonishing Baseball is very easy to learn. If you know the game rules, you’ll know how to play! But if you’re a sabermetrics savant, you’ll find all kind of stats to satisfy your nerdy instinct! I even suggest to use wOBA. You don’t know what wOBA is? Don’t worry, according to very serious studies, about 99.999% of people don’t care about wOBA. Good news, right? And now you can even see the future thanks to our WAR projections!
Get international
Not enough talent in your league? Send your incredible and local scouts to find the best prospects in the world, and then invite the most promising player to your team! But be careful, even the best scouts can make mistakes… My favorite one is named “Francis Dupont”. Yes, he’s French, from Paris, and he’s always hyping up his prospects. Like “Look, I just saw that guy from Strasbourg for three minutes and I’m rating him 80/80 and he’s already in the Hall of Fame blablabla”. Best thing to do with Francis is to ask him to spend a bit more time on the prospect. Generally it ends with a final rating of 50+/80 and a simple “I told you so”. I really like you Francis, but if you’re reading this, do your job correctly please.
Live incredible stories
As a coach, you have a life too! In Astonishing Baseball, you can take your team to a burger restaurant, help local associations, but also meet your favorite author, become a rock star, visit Iceland and even marry the love of your life!
Apparently I have to put a disclaimer here. You’re not going to really meet the love of your life with this game. It’s like… Your in-game soulmate, okay?
If you like baseball, fantasy sports and simulations, or just good stories, you’ll love Astonishing Baseball Manager! I hope. If you don’t, I like messages!
Paid Trade
This game is awesome but sometimes it truncates the full name of the listing. Definitely would be good to fix this.
Also this game would be absolutely perfect for mobile please release it on mobile.
I just randomly stumbled on this game but it’s just a really great idea all around.

Let’s be honest with each other at the moment. You stumbled across this game, read the description and now are in the comments section trying to figure out what to do. Check out my video on the game and that should help push you in the direction you need to go. You’ll be amazed at how much somethings cost and also shocked by how cheap things are as well. Overall, you’ll get a few hours of enjoyment out of it. I recommend streaming it and letting your community roast you on how bad you are at pricing things.
