Yeah, it was pretty lame from someone who enjoys simulation games.

There's an IOS/Android game called Game Dev Story that's smaller in scope and much more arcade-y, but from what I've seen of Game Dev Tycoon, it's also much more fun.

The problem is it's something much more suited to playing in short bursts on a phone rather than sitting down and playing for an extended period of time on a PC.

It was quite fun on Android, which is what it was designed for.

If you were the size of an ant that would be a lot of immersion...

It was by the same guys that did Dungeon Village, it needs no explanation.
