>>12188062It's a fun and funny game, but it's bullshit
>>12188062It's a very charming game with some nice cartoony graphics, and that specific brand of dark, miserable British humour.That alone helps dealing with the natural instinct of wanting to chuck the computer out of a window out of sheer frustation with having one of your properties claimed by an enemy foreman, being asked to do some shit by the council, paying your annual fees, and having to comply with your tenants' stupid complains, all of this at the same time.

>random guy in a gimp suitit's like they predicted 2025
wow this game looks beautiful
>>12188062I remember playing it in the 90s along with Theme Hospital on my PS1, but unlike Theme Hospital I didn't get really far into it because it was too hard for my 7-8yo ass. I think I still have the disc somewhere around, so maybe I'll find a free day to try it out again.
OP here, well I've figured out how to unlock the gadget factory to supply the tenants with trees as well as give them fences. All seems hunky-dory until I got a note from the council saying that my land was "barren and unorthodox" and I have a set number of days to fix it before I get my shit kicked inWatching Letmecominit's Let's Play from almost a decade ago has really helped a lothttps://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLTOuUJdq9FwZ8sOokeyeH9IL1GWRhY2vk&si=a8eyaeyewo5jrQs_
I had this game as a kid and could only get anywhere by cheesing the hell out of it, designating a couple of unassigned workers to hang around on enemy building sites to prevent them building. The computer never had any counter to this.I played it again a couple of years ago and didn't need to cheese it like that. You just need to watch what's going on.The buildings you can use to fuck around vary quite a lot in usefulness. The thief stealing money is pretty easy. The psycho going on a rampage is breddy gud. But the best one is Mr Fixit removing the cookers.Just keep sending Mr Fixit over there and then occasionally you'll hear a boom - then you switch over to see the glorious chain reactions as the enemy loses multiple houses and often whole work gangs at a time in one go.
>>12189879It’s a surprisingly realistic landlord simulator.
