Rating: - I never seen a game with lower detail before...
the good:uh um lets see thats hard... its cheap,the reqments are low?
the bad:There is no sound effects,only 1 short song and after thats over its dead silence,gets boring after 30 mins or if you didnt get the starter loan payed off 1 hour,after you pay off the starter loan its gets boring,dont you think you will get a little annoyed if all the advertisement is a one black in white picture of a lady and perfume?
well there is only 1 scene for each catagory of shows.

Rating: - Not to bad of a game if you like tycoon games
At first when I went and downloaded this game I was like this is for a kid. Once I started playing it wasnt that bad of a game but I will be honest after starting over like 5 times I think I got control of it now and it seems pretty easy just meet your goals on advertisments and you will be fine.
So if you like tycoon games then get this game for 6 buxs like I did then go for it and buy this game you wont be disappointed for only 6 buxs.

The setting is 1954, that is fine, except you begin with a Bank loan of 24,000,000 at an interest RATE of 20% per DAY (yes, that's correct)!!! In the beginning you can only make about 1-2 million a day which barely cover the 1 million dollar a day rental expense for the TV station.. by the time you are making any kind of income, the bank loan has compounded to over 60 million ...

Rating: - Suprising Nugget of Fun
TV tycoon is a strange animal. I've played many a game through many genres and was surprised at the style and presentation of TV Tycoon.
The game starts you off in the 50's as the inheritor of a near bankrupt local TV station. You need to attract viewers by buying the rights to movies, series, and news programs. You have a very good selection and level of control when arranging and tweaking the programs. You make money by attracting advertisers. I should note that I've played this game ... Read More
