Other Car Company Tycoon games

[Arakash]

According to the FAQ, GearCity is a child of Detroit and Motor City...

So you may want to check out Motor City (Oldtimer) along with Detroit to grasp the concepts of GC.


Other car games I know of:
Car Tycoon
CarBiz
Cars Incorporated


The main reason I started this game was because the only options were Detroit, Motor City, Car Tycoon, and CarBiz at the time. The first two being from the 90s, the third being waaaay too tycoony, and Carbiz being very lackluster... Seems like I wasn't the only one with the same idea!

I think we're the only hardcore business simulator of the 6. Automation will corner the pure gear head demographics. Which will hurt our revenues, but I think we'll take the majority of strategy gamers such as yourself. Tycoonies will probably be split. Really depends on how Automation makes the business side of their game, but I suspect they'll get the majority of causal Tycoonies. I've always hated casual Tycoon games, so I'm not even going to try to compete for that market!

Id forgotten that mention in the FAQ, sorry.
Thanks for sharing the names of those other games, ill have to have a look into them at some point and perhaps play a few.

I think hardcore business simulator is a fair description, especially after i keep hearing of the under-the-hood depth in Gearcity Sounds great to me.
