User reviews & Ratings

The game offers exactly what it promises. If you find tycoon games too simplistic, this is the way to go. It's one of very few management games that try to go really deep into the actual management. Taxes, loans, bonds, stocks, splits, branches, marques, sub companies, dividends, unions, competition and everything else you can imagine. Running the company is really fun. You will definitely learn to read the montly reports to find things hidden between the lines. The competition is real and not scripted. The economic situation changes etc. Designing vehicles and parts is pretty straightforward but it gives a lot of different strategies. Are you going to develop just one type of a part and reuse it for different car models? Or you want to design specific parts for each? Do you aim at luxury clients with high prices and low sales or are you going to go for mass production for casual client on minimal margin? Will selling cheap cars affect your company ratings and maybe it's beter to create a different marque for that? Are you going to preserve money or risk high by issuing bonds and hoping to increase profits to pay them back? Are you goind to go public and will you later buy back your stocks or continue to dillute them? Or maybe you want to buy stocks and possibly take over other companies? Are you going to invest heavy into R&D or maybe you preffer more marketing? This game might seem hard to get into but the tutorials explain the basics and it's not really that hard to get into itt. After a few hours you basically know everything you need about the game mechanics. But learning to actually drive a successful company is another thing and this can take much more time. The game has many different mechanics to explore but non of them is overcomplicated. I find it well balanced between complexity and playability. The UI might seem a bit overwhelming at first but honestly you quickly learn how to use it and automation helps you with micromanagement as the company grows. It's an amazing game and well worth the prices especially if you are interested in some deeper simulation of economics and a feeling of really running a company in realistic environment.
As someone who enjoys spreadsheets a little more than is probably healthy, this game is fantastic. It made me forget that my employer laid off everyone(including me) recently. I'm enjoying my unwillingly, but hard earned, unemployed evenings thanks to it And if I were to describe it in one sentence, it would be something like: "If you've ever looked at a spreadsheet and thought 'this could be a game,' you'll probably love GearCity too."
It's good. It's very much held back by the financial and technological limitations inherent in the game. This is most noticeable when it comes to the UI. For example, you design a car. You, as a company based in North America, don't want your factories shipping to Australia and incurring huge costs. So you open a new sub-brand for Australia. Your new car is branded for NA, but you can manually redesign the vehicle to re-badge it in Australia, allowing both companies to produce and sell the model. This is maybe 10 clicks or so. But uh. You don't have 2 brands, you have 5. And you don't have one model of car, you have maybe 20 separate types of vehicles. And every single vehicle type must be updated at minimum once every 5 years. And if you are changing any of the components and moving to a new generation, that's more clicks. For every single model. For every single brand. Every couple years. Forever. It's *unbelievably* monotonous, and is always the reason I eventually put the game back down. But if you're here, looking at this review on a multiple year old business sim, and seriously considering whether it's worthwhile. Well. You're probably used to the nonsense inherent in the genre. You want a game about fiddling with numbers. You want a game about making decisions. You want a game that respects your intelligence and trusts you, the player, to succeed or ♥♥♥♥ up by your own merits. And you are constantly chasing the high of breaking through the challenge and succeeding beyond the confines of the game. For all the flaws it has, and it does have many, GearCity still delivers on that core fantasy. And truthfully? I think that's all that matters.
with the amount of hours i have in this game i have definitely gotten my moneys worth out this diamond in the rough. I picked this gem up way back in 2015 and i have played it for years. from being a teenager to being a grown man having children this game has delivered untold amounts of enjoyment to me. i highly recommend this game
