Cartel Tycoon
First of all, don’t mind the playtime. I am one of the early supporters of the game and have some 280 hours on my profile for the “Earliest Uncut” version of the game. I provided extensive feedback for the game and used to be one of the community playtesters for early builds in the past.
By concept, Cartel Tycoon is a great game. The recipe for this addictive drug is “Tropico meets Frostpunk meets Narcos series”. Visuals, narrative, characters, music - all that is done well and does a lot for the immersion in the setting.

For the person reading this hoping it’s the cartel management game they’ve always dreamed would be released… here it is baby.
Nothing quite as satisfying as watching a convoy of trucks carrying 100 kilos of cocaine stuffed inside a chicken drive right past the Federales convoy on their way to t1tty f*** your cocoa farms.
Or burning down a warehouse stacked to the ceiling with cash rather than letting the DEA seize it.
So much potential for this game. I played the demo months ago and literally called out sick the day it dropped.

Farmer’s Defence
Start off as a simple Farmer: plow, plant, water, and harvest your plants.
Slowly weeds start creeping and spreading threatening to destroy your plants and take over your farm.
Armed with your bare hands you will have to pull out all those weeds before they get out of control.
As time progresses it will become increasingly difficult to fend off those weeds. There are upgrades and tools in the shop to help you push back.
How long will you last before the weeds take over your farm? How much money will you have by then?
Features
-
Pay attention to your plants’ condition. To get the most money for a plant you will have to harvest it just in time. Sell your plant while it’s still fresh otherwise it will begin to rot.
-
Keep a vigilant eye on the creeping weeds. Once the weeds grow out of control and start becoming thick, it will be much more difficult to get rid of them.
-
Invest your hard earned cash on Fertilizers, Herbicides, upgrades and better tools.

Exiled as an outcast, the alchemist lived a life that many would pity. The alchemist became a revered name whispered across the streets, often being sought out to conduct dangerous and bewildering experiments. Forever being hunted by the Katedral Academy, the alchemist wished to test the limits of sorcery and forge their own path.

Narrative Cutscenes - Grow your skills as an alchemist and discover the world with narrative
cutscenes. Make lasting friendships, face perilous enemies and uncover hidden secrets
throughout your journey.

– Real player with 25.1 hrs in game
I’ve been playing the game for about 14 hours now and while it was fun at start, some things started to annoy me:
-
First off, a dev who claimed (in discord) this game is worthy of a full release, which obviously is not the case).
-
Too many plots are taken by bandit camps and mining plots
-
Boats are buggy and can break sometimes (not allowing you to load resources on it)
-
It needs more optimization, i have a great pc but even for me the game started stuttering (ingame and sound)
-
Bandit camps need balancing. I have them with only kings, which requires a max level training field. By the time i can defeat them i have no more need for such resources you can get from them.

WORLD
Long ago, people believed that our world lays on 3 elephants that stand on a giant turtle. Those people were wrong about 2 things:
First - There are no elephants. That is silly. There is only the Turtle.
Second - Our world is just a planet, but there is another beautiful place wandering space, that is similar to Earth and rests on the Turtle.
An unprecedented economic war for territories and resources flares up on the turtle.
Will it and all life on it die in the chaos of pollution?
Or will intelligent beings come to their senses and prevent the end of the world by developing new technologies?
Pollute and Conquer, compromise and cleanse.
TM - Prologue
I love the premise of the game , and there are some really great design choices which make it easy to play. Item placement is really great and pathing/mapping seems to work really well.
The main Issue I have is that when you look at the content that will be unlocked for the game , theres nothing interesting. It is just more of the same. 3 more drinks, have more waiters, have more chefs , have more barmen.
build a bigger bar , which in turn means more micro management of the same thing. Would have loved to see a bit more creativity. They have a hugely dynamic playing field you could have everything from bar brawls requiring security to tavern wenches or bards performing. You could have city watch coming in if theres too much ruckus or illicit activity in your tavern, but illicit activity could be more profitable. You could have local thugs trying to extort if you make too much money but have too little security. Hell you could even have a page for DIY recipes with your ingredients for your chef to make which could fail or succeed.

A very nice and polished demo! I love this game already. It completely scratches the idle management sim itch. I’m really looking forward to the final release!
I didn’t notice any bugs myself but did have some difficulty trying to figure out how staff happiness works. In the full release, in-game tutorials/tips for different features and mechanics would be helpful (but not a huge deal). Everything else was pretty self-explanatory.
The demo runs very smoothly with high graphics on my potato, no lag or stuttering.

Very nice game, much potential

Although this title does not support English, its playable to an extent thanks to its general city building concepts. Has promise, looking forward to if the dev adds support for English.
