Description

Startup Company is a business simulation sandbox game. You’re the CEO of a small startup and are eager to grow your company. With a small investment, you set out to build an amazing website to compete against the largest tech giants in the world and dream of becoming the most valuable company in history.


Your company’s success depends on your ability to run and manage a website. You’ll have to continously develop and improve features, while increasing hosting capacity and effectively run marketing campaigns.


The city offers you offices in all sizes and shapes. It’s up to you to select the most suitable. It’s your job to organize and decorate the office while keeping your employees happy.


Your employees are a vital part of your success. As you grow, you’ll have to continue recruiting more people. Over time, your employees will start demanding more of you and the company. It’s your job to keep them happy, before your competitors sends them a job offer they can’t reject!


There’s no website without stable and reliable servers. As your website attracts more traffic, you have to move from virtual servers to your own fully featured hosting center.


The goal is obvious: becoming the biggest website in the industry. It’s up to you if you want to buy and merge your competitors or simply outrun them till they go out of business!

Was looking for something like the old Venture Tycoon Game and this scratches the itch initally but then falls off a bit. Gonna be a bit harsh and go negative even though i do keep coming back to it to give it a chance.

Love this game, its pretty intuitive with how you need to build a hosting (datacenter). Buy out competetors, increase hosting levels with more users and features etc. Overall one of my favorite games of all time. 100/10

The game is too simple and small to the point that it gets repetitive and falls off immensely quick. There is just so little to the game, and what makes it even worse is the UX, there is far too many things to

It's a good game, I just struggle to find any kind of replayability out of it. Once you'd played it through, there's not much fun to be had in doing it all again. However, it is definitely a solid game, and worth a

About 30% of my time in this game was in idle or the pause menu, and the other 70% was spent 'looking for the fun' whilst being engaged enough to keep going. But now I realise I saw everything the game had to offer at
