King of Retail

Das Spiel ist okay, es hat einige Features die Interessant sind, wie z.B. den Karrieremodus. Aber: Für ein Spiel das normal 25€ kostet wirkt es noch unfertig, schlimmer wird es noch, wenn man bedenkt, dass es mittlerweile einen Nachfolger gibt, anstatt neue Features durch günstige evtl, sogar kostenlose DLCs ins bestehende Spiel zu implementieren. Vielleicht wurde auch die ganze Softwarearchitektur im Nachfolger überarbeitet, aber das ist Spekulation meinerseits. Ein 3 Jahre altes Spiel nicht weiter zu entwickeln, welches unzählige Featurelücken hat und stattdessen einen 2. Teil in bei Steam als Early Access in den Store zu stellen, lässt es sich wie einen Cashgrab anfühlen. Was vermisse ich: 1. Geld hat keine Währung. 2. Anti-Diebstahl-Systeme wie Alarmanlagen/ Schleusen. 3. Dekorationen (Die Läden sind einfach bleiben leblos und hässlich) 4. Grafiken (Gesichter sehen aus als kämen sie aus 15 Jahre alten Spielen) 5. Detaillierte Analysetools um Kundengruppen und Bedürfnisse im voraus besser erkennen zu können. 6. Standartstock an Waren von Laden zu Laden übertragen/kopieren 7. Detailliertere Übersichten für Cashflow einzelner Läden und Konzern als ganzes 8. Möglichkeit Tage simulieren zu lassen, ohne dass man in einem Laden schimmelt/arbeitet Darüber hinaus sind die Geldbeträge eigenartig, das finanzielle Balancing scheint bei Löhnen und Gehältern nicht gefinished. Dazu wenn man einen Mitarbeiter zu einem Storemanager befördern möchte, warum geht man in Gehaltsverhandlungen um im Anschluss nochmal eine Prozentuale erhöhung des Managergehalts aushandeln zu müssen? Im Großen und Ganzen könnte man sagen das Spiel ist zu 65% fertig, es wirkt nicht gepolished dafür ist der übliche Preis viel zu hoch. Im Angebot kann man durchaus zugreifen.

Achtung Suchtgefahr!! Tolles Spiel und ich hoffe es wird auch weiter Entwickelt das Spiel hat es Verdient. Macht mega Spaß. Das einzige das schade ist: Leider kein Multiplayer Modus :(

Cash grab. No updates anymore basically an early access game for 25 bucks. Already anounced King of Retail 2

Not a bad premise for a game, the controls are terrible but you get used to them. Not a lot in the way of stock management or details on sales as much as I would like, plus it would be nice to have more time before or after closing to figure things our but the game forces you back to your office. It's not a terribly hard game once you figure it all out but once you do, that is it, it is a lot of the same a slight expansion from there. Rinse and repeat. People say this game is unfinished and abandoned so they could make the sequel, I can see where they are getting this from, it is lacking a lot of things that would make it a classic if they took the time.

[h3] I think it's understable to get angry at the developer for "abandoning the game" BUT there might be a good reason for it.[/h3] You see this game has very very good aspects like you can not only run a shop but an entire company empire and even invest in real estate. But this game has also limits in the technical aspects and there are many quality of life features missing that makes playing it a chore of repeating the same steps over and over because you cannot automate them easily. I guess with the technical foundation of the game that's not easy to fix. So he might as well started developing the same game from scratch but much better this time with the money he earned. If the developer just abandons the game they often would announce an entirely different game. Because those developers who are just scammers in disguise won't expect you to fall into the same trap twice. But the fact that Freaking Games is just starting to develop the same game again is giving me hope. I think they are fully aware nobody will buy KoR 2 if it is the same or worse than KoR. I think I would be 100% angry if they just abandon King of Retail community and develop a game about zoo keeping which is just an lazy asset flip. But I really have hope they realized it's not possible to update KoR into being an fully amazing game so they decided to get a better technical foundation and then create the ultimate retail empire game.

don't recommend this game .. it seems the developers abounded it no more updates.

Look, The developer is working on another game already, This game is Pretty great in its current state, but it really could have used some updates ill admit. That being said It was a solo indie developer 100%. got to give credit where its due, that being said alot was learned in the process and it is able to be redone, but better. I dont necessarily recommend purchasing the game unless its discounted. but it is quite challenging to a point. there is alot to learn, and i personally really enjoy the gameplay. but due to the fact this it will not recieve any kind of updates i have to warn you that you get what you will. I am excited for the second already.
