Modeled estimate, not a reported figure. How we estimate →
Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
Every market we collect.
Charts
Each storefront's own chart, in its own country — the closest public signal to sales where none is published. A country missing from a list is one we don't collect there, not one where the game doesn't chart.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 20/day in the week to Aug 28 → 78.43/day in the week after.
Too few observations to say whether a discount moves this store's chart at all: across the last 30 days Steam · Top Sellers · Poland has just 17 day-to-day chart moves that followed a price cut, against 2,502 that did not. We are publishing the count instead of a direction — 20 is the fewest we will draw a conclusion from, and price collection outside the United States began on 6 August 2026.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.
About
Your bank balance is tiny, but your ambitions are big.
With a little help from your uncle, you get an apartment and your first job. But then it's up to you to achieve success and take over New York City any way you like.
Slowly build multiple small businesses, grow them into huge corporations, or carve your own unique path – the possibilities are limitless in this vast business sandbox. You've never played anything like this!
Go from a small apartment and public transport to luxury suites, fast cars and designer furniture. Put your money into investment funds and real estate. Succeed, fail, rebuild. But remember to take care of yourself, sleep and stay happy on your rise to the top.
Do you have what it takes to build your own empire?

Go from nothing to the most prominent tycoon in New York. Start a business, work smart, make it thrive and enjoy your life. How do you want to be successful? How far can you push it? How long can you make it last?
Start your own gift shop, supermarket, coffee shop, law firm, clothing store, liquor store, florist, and more. You decide what success is - whether it’s a single shop, a chain of fast-food restaurants, a huge corporation, or making millions developing websites.
Take out a loan, rent a building, design the logo, renovate the store, get stock, manage your money, hire staff, and build your infrastructure. Soon, you may have to start importing products from the harbour and distributing them through a network of warehouses.
A bigger business means managers. Hire HR Managers, Logistics Managers, and Purchasing Agents. They all need desks and computers, so you’ll need a fancy headquarters.
Need a delivery truck? Travel to a dealer and buy one. Need food? Go to a supermarket, but make sure you have a refrigerator at home. Big Ambitions is a life sim where your character has to physically interact with the world to survive and succeed.
Enter any building in New York and buy it. Go from a small apartment to a dream penthouse in midtown, a luxurious townhouse in Hell’s Kitchen, or a series of skyscrapers. Fill each with furniture that suits your style and standing. Invest your hard-earned cash in real estate to grow your empire. Take over the city piece by piece.
Spend your wealth however you wish. Buy a big SUV, a speedy sports car, or the new luxurious Mersaidi S500. Maybe risk it all at the casinos or put your money into investment funds and reap the rewards.
As you progress, you always need to ensure you get enough sleep and stay healthy and happy. Enjoy the journey, for as you grow older, you’ll discover that money can’t buy you time... or can it?
Big Ambitions takes what you love about the viral sensation ‘Startup Company’ to even greater heights.

oeh
Fun game, with a lot of cool detail for managing different businesses. It gets more fun when you start to scale with warehouses and don't have to run around as much. I can see how this game has been improving which is cool. I look forward to seeing how the developers grow it.

endelig et spil uden en masse bugs, super sjovt koncept
Certamente um dos melhores jogos de negocios que já joguei. Inicio: Lento e desafiador, se vc chega cansado depois de um dia exaustivo de trabalho, parabens! Mais trabalho e problemas lhe espera. Meio: Finalmente vc consegue sentir a dopamina das coisas dando certo, passa maior parte do tempo organizando e xingando seus concorrentes por nao querer vender propriedades ou ficar querendo satisfazer os desejos dos seus empregados(até ter uma sede cheia de RH). Fim: Finalmente vc entra no modo The Sims e vai curtir a vida e caçar coisas caras pra comprar, não tem muitas coisas caras e divertidas pra comprar :( só predios mesmo.
[h1]Big Ambitions is great — but the retail real-estate market needs to feel alive[/h1] First of all, I really love this game. I have played [b]200+ hours of Big Ambitions[/b] and reached the stage where I am buying properties, managing around 12 businesses and working with tens of millions of dollars. So this feedback comes from someone who has experienced the early game, mid game and what I consider the current endgame. The progression is one of my favorite parts of the game. Growing from a small business into a large company feels great. The furniture/store-design systems are excellent, and I really like the planned parts of the economy: fixed brands, properties and products, as well as the fact that you cannot simply buy everything from one central location. The supply system gives the world much more character. The [b]private driver[/b] was also an excellent addition. I would love to see more vehicle variety in the future, both functionally and aesthetically. [h2]The biggest problem: the retail real-estate market feels static[/h2] After reaching the late game, this is the issue that stands out to me the most. In my current playthrough, I am around [b]200 in-game days[/b] in, and some retail properties that were available at the beginning are still available. The same opportunities seem to remain open, and the market does not appear to react much to what happens around the city. This feels strange for a game set in New York. If a neighborhood has high unmet demand for a profitable business, why am I the only investor capable of recognizing that opportunity? [h2]The city needs competition[/h2] I don't think the solution is simply adding more properties. I think the market itself needs to become more dynamic. If I don't satisfy a profitable demand, [b]another investor should eventually try to satisfy it[/b]. That could create a natural cycle: [b]High demand → AI investment → competition → lower unmet demand → changing profitability → businesses relocate/close → new opportunities.[/b] This would make the city feel alive instead of feeling like a collection of opportunities waiting exclusively for the player. It would also create something the game currently lacks: [b]real price competition[/b]. If an AI competitor opens the same business next to mine, I should have to react. Lower prices, improve service, increase marketing, change products, relocate, expand or close. [h2]Small and medium businesses could solve the accessibility problem[/h2] I understand the danger of making the market too dynamic: large AI investors could potentially take every good property before the player gets there. But this could be solved through different scales of investors. Small and medium properties could have much higher turnover, while the largest properties could be dominated by major AI companies. A new entrepreneur would start small and gradually gain access to larger opportunities. That would make becoming a major investor feel much more meaningful. Right now, the player can almost become a monopoly simply because [b]the rest of the market does not react[/b]. [h2]More dynamic events[/h2] I also think the game could benefit from events that affect businesses and properties: municipal inspections, temporary closures, legal disputes, building problems, zoning issues, bankruptcies, businesses being sold or investors relocating. A simple legal system could even allow larger companies to need lawyers or legal infrastructure. For example, a business could be temporarily closed because of a legal dispute while the owner continues paying certain costs until a decision is reached. These events would create unexpected situations and make the late game much less predictable. [h2]Overall[/h2] Despite this criticism, I want to emphasize that [b]I really love Big Ambitions[/b]. This is not a negative review from someone who disliked the game. I am making this suggestion because I have spent 200+ hours playing it and can see how much potential the game has. The progression, business management, customization, economy and supply systems are all very enjoyable. The game already does an excellent job of making the player feel like a businessman. [b]I think the next step is making the entire city feel like it is full of businessmen too.[/b] I don't want the city to simply provide opportunities for me. [b]I want the city to compete with me.[/b] I want other investors to see the same opportunities I see. I want businesses to open, compete, change prices, relocate, get sold and sometimes fail. Most importantly, I want to start a new game and not feel like I am going to rent exactly the same properties and exploit exactly the same opportunities every time. [b]Big Ambitions already has an excellent foundation. Making the market more dynamic, competitive and volatile could make the endgame dramatically better and much more replayable.[/b] Thank you to the developers for an incredible game. I genuinely hope you keep expanding these systems, because Big Ambitions has enormous potential.
