User reviews

Decent. I just finished the demo. I wish you would be asked different questions instead of the same old "what is best for action games." I also wish the game would warn you about being only a demo. Altogether, good, but I have no idea what the full version offers vs this demo, and the demo only gives you 10 game years, 1 worker for hire, and 1 new office. I wish I knew more about the full version before I am asked to buy. Edit- it does not always respond when I tap things.
