Gamestonk Simulator

me and my friend are addicted to this lol

GameStonks is a fun retail management game. One of my favorite additions to the game is the retro games. I'm hoping they keep adding more, but the game is fun as it is.

Pretty fun! Though...not so much knowing there are people who steal, but at least it keeps you on your toes and doesn't make it boring! The title of the games are pretty funny and the retro section is my cup of tea! I love that part! There are a few things I have a bone to pick with. The fact there are no nickels and you have to pay with extra pennies, is pretty frustrating. More so when you cannot click fast enough when the store is busy from a HOT new release. NPCs get annoyed faster and walk out. Another thing concerning money, would be when the change on the screen is marked $0.10 but the drawer is marked $0.1. My mind instantly thinks that is one cent and not ten cents. So, that slows me down. Also, it'd be pretty awesome if we were able to upgrade the Employee Enforcer's weapon. When an employee is the enforcer, I hardly ever get any money in return verses when I am the Enforcer. I would love to be able to buy the new released weapons and give them to the employee enforcer to use instead. A weird thing, but I dislike playing in full screen. It never locks to window when I change it back from full screen to window. One last thing, I believe may be a bug. But on Tycoon mode, when you move a shelving unit or register, it changes your curser and mouse speed. You have to go into the settings, move the mouse speed a bit, to even get it back to normal. It happens all the time more so when you accidently hit Q instead of forward. But over all, pretty fun for a slow pace game! Kind of hard to earn proper money but then again, I just started playing the full game from the demo so you cannot really get a feel for the game just yet. Oh! There is one thing, I am unsure if I have to mention this other then there is a checkmark. But I found the hidden key from ImCade (youtuber) when he played the Demo version. Still waiting for him to play the full version :) But other wise I probably wouldn't be able to afford to buy it as I rarely have any money to my name as it goes for bills, food, and other things.

My grandpa didn't want me around his job. At least in this game he let me run the store while he was still alive... entirely! 10/10 for solving a trauma.

Right now there are a thousand store simulator clones on Steam. Fortunately, this game is not one of them. This game adds a fresh new twist on the store management genre. The devs have been very responsive to user reviews, and have been making a lot of positive changes to the game. Gamestonk Simulator has two games modes: tycoon and survival. Tycoon mode is your regular chill tycoon game. In survival mode, you have to meet quotas every week. In survival mode, you can also unlock permanent upgrades to your store that you can use on other playthroughs. A van arrives every day that you can buy upgrades from. There is a pretty good variety of upgrades. Every few in-game days, a new game or piece of hardware releases, with weekly "hot" releases that are more popular. To make extra money, you can buy random "retro games" that have a chance of being worth a lot of money. You can then sell the retro games in your shop. With the content currently released for this game, I think that it is definitely worth the $10 asking price. If you like store simulator and roguelite games, then you will most likely like Gamestonk Simulator. It is a little more challenging than the average store sim, but has better replayability than a lot of them. Hopefully the dev will keep adding more content and polishing the game. It already runs smoothly, but I would like to see them add more content.

Grafik: 4/5 Spielkonzept: 4/5 Handling: 5/5 Abwechslung: 3/5 Multiplayer: 5/5 Plattformübergreifend: Windows und Ubuntu 24.04 getestet und schnurrt auf beiden Betriebssystemen. Meine Frau und ich haben uns beide das Spiel geholt da es sowieso im Sonderangebot zu dem Zeitpunkt war und es mal neben den ganzen Standardsimulatoren ganz lustig sein könnte. Fazit: Es macht wirklich Spass, bietet Abwechslung und besonders wichtig, zu Zweit macht es mehr Spass und trotzdem kann auch mal ein Spieler alleine Spielen. Der zweite kann jederzeit einsteigen, wieder raus und später wieder rein. Das haben zu wenige Spiele wirklich ausgereift hinbekommen bisher. Grafik: Naja, sagen wir mal, es ist eher putzig gehalten und niedlich. Aber Grafik ist nicht mehr alles und wenn ich ehrlich sein darf, sowas wie dieses Spiel ist mir inzwischen wesentlich wichtiger als AAA Grafikdesigne bei dem alles andere dafür versagt. Spielkonzept: Hier unterscheidet sich das Spiel überraschend wenig von anderen Simulatoren in dem Bereich. Aber auch hier, die Umsetzung ist entscheidend, nicht das Konzept selbst. Handling: Hier und da ist die Belegung von Standardeinstellungen her, sagen wir mal etwas unnatürlich gestaltet. Aber man kann es frei anpassen, was dadurch auch kein Minus Punkt gibt. Abwechslung: Ja ist vorhanden, aber in einem überschaubaren Maß. Kein Meteoriteneinschlag, kein "Scotty, Beam me Up.", eher ein sagen wir mal Spiel mit lustigen blauen Männchen. Multiplayer: Perfekt gematched. Einziger kleiner haken ist das Ruckeln zwischen drin, was aber auch an anderen Dingen wie IDS/IPS liegen könnte was zuhause am laufen ist und der Umstand das auf der Leitung sehr viele Apps und Services auch Online laufen. Gesamtfazit: Auf alle Fälle einen Blick wert.
