60 of 183 · most liked firstEchoing and further summarizing what reviews before me have said, this is a pretty cool game with some major, perhaps deal-breaking flaws. The premise of the game is simple, straightforward, and works the way you expect it to. You start with a lump sum of cash and are expected to buy your first vehicle. Could be a car (meaning self-contained transport, like a flatbed or an armored car) or a truck, requiring a trailer. Afterwards, hire a driver that has the required licenses. In both cases, you…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Freight Tycoon Inc is a management game where you are entrusted to develop and maintain a Freight company that delivers goods for various manufacturing plants around the map. The game is set on a number of levels that provide you a certain challenge, each in its own way. While to some the levels system may seem out of place, in actuality, its a good thing. Once you have completed the level, you are given the option to continue playing on the level permanently. Just click yes, save your game for…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's nearly a good game. It has so much potential, but it suffers the same fate of many a tycoon game. There is always a best decision that can be made by a crude guess and the worst decision leaves you no worse off than the best. Now, I don't mean that there isn't always a best decision in other tycoon games, but usually the campaigns change that and you end up with a reasonable choice between say fuel efficiency, reliability or something else and the campaign helps dictate that. But…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I have played several transport-related tycoons and I have to say I really like this one, for one simple reason: it is EXTREMELY simple to play, and quick to do ANYTHING. 2 or 3 clicks and you buy trucks, you assign several to routes(contracts), or you remove them. The graphics are suitable for such a game in my opinion (helps to keep the loadings really fast), with the construction that happens occasionally being very detailed in my opinion. The animation is fine. The sound can't really say,…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →"7/10" According to My Own Ratings. WARNING: Ignore the trailer. It has nothing to do with the game. Check the screenshots instead. It should be obvious but still worth reminding. The game could be more challenging. By could I mean should. But it's pretty cheap so... might be worth checking out if you like this kind of tycoon/company simulators game. You buy vehicles, hire people, upgrade company, buy and upgrade garages, sign contracts and assign vehicles to work on them. As you complete…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is a pretty solid game. Played 10 hours today without any crashes which is nice for an older game. Micro management of a truck company transporting all manner of goods. I like it.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Far too simple and dumbed down for my tastes. I was expecting something deeper and interesting. A lot of the management aspects are tame. You buy trucks based on their top speed. No freight manager in the world buys a truck based on its top speed. This is a silly game.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I'm not understanding all of the anger about this game, unless they bought it for more than I did ($2.50). If this game is guilty of anything it's a tutorial that makes the easy parts of the game sound complicated and then just doesn't explain anything else. This game could do more like giving you the ability to buy the industries you're servicing or give you more options like planes or trains to serve them better but i do enjoy how the areas of the city grow when you are successful. Yes it has…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Nice micromanagement game. Kept me hooked for the duration of the campaign, but I feel no need for the free play scenarios. Quite a few features missing, but nothing very frustrating. Would recommend only if you like micromanagement-type games
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Definitely worth the price,i've been playing it every day since i purchased it.On some contracts you need to think how to complete them and rake in the big prize money and that's either by putting your largest trailers on the job or hiring more staff and buying more trucks. Although the graphics isn't the best you can't expect the best graphics for the price that has been asked. I'd rate this game 9/10.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Warning: Broken Game! This game has design/implementation defects that will render this unplayable for many gamers. The game simply does not launch on Windows 11 and recent builds of Windows 10. Freight Tycoon Inc. was an ancient game from 2007. It's a whopping 17 years old at the time of this review. The game lacks support for any modern gaming display resolutions (or widescreen monitors), hasn't been modernised or updated to run AT ALL on modern gaming PCs. Despite this lack of…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is one of the worst tycoon games I've ever played and I can't think of even one single reason why somebody should consider this one, even back in 2007 when the game was released. It features literally no challenge, no management, no strategy, no adaptation to changing scenarios, nothing. All you do is buy bunch of vehicles, spam contracts and see your cash flowing in, then buy more vehicles and jump into more contracts to gain even more money you spend on... more vehicles. If you set…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Does not work on Windows 10 64Bit
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →just doesn't work anymore - windows 10
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I beta tested this game several years ago. I really enjoyed this game a lot. Moreso because while working as a graphic designer, my principal client was a freight & shipping management company. I can tell you that this game really captures the complexity of running and managing a trucking distribution company. If you're into micromanagement, this will keep your neurons busy and give you a 'control phreak high' :) I recommend this game which somehow passed unnoticed when it was first published.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →One of the best transportation business simulations. Desparately want a sequel.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is enjoyable if you like sims like this. Relax set up lines of transport, pick up contracts make cash etc. There are some game breakers in this though and the developer really has not tried to fix them even though its been out for years. For example the campaign has a bad map in the middle of the series. You cant go past it, I have not been able to win it due to some horrid map planning and the way your trucks behave at load and deliver points. Basically on map 12 of the campaign you…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Does not work, game wont launch on Steam or otherwise. No solution could be found searching either. Buyer beware, this game is broken.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Freight Tycoon Inc. is like a top down version of Euro Truck Simulator, only you play the role of boss of the entire trucking company.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →HOW MANY BIRDS YOU WANT? A LOT YOU WANT ADDITIONAL GRAPHICS? HELL YEAH THE REAL DARK SOULS STARTS HERE. CAN YOU DELIVER THESE GOODS IN A TIMELY AND EFFICIENT MANNER ♥♥♥♥♥♥?
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →NOT WORKING on Win10 64bit system!!!
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is a game for peaple who like RTS so dont tlet those negative comments get in the way of your dissision you guys have to remember this this is a starting company trying to grow and if you have this game the intro explaines their veiw for the series so if you want that view to become reality then you should support the devs instead ofinsulting them for lack of high tech software. try putting yourself in ther shoes before critisizing them. I strongly recommend this game it has great potetal…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I did like this game, until it left me to join the navy. After 2 months at sea I got a note to tell me that it had taken up with a popular young officer called Cecil. Sometime later I was saddened to learn that it had died of a very rare form of anti-scurvy - it had eaten so much fruit that it turned into a peach, and rolled into the sea near Felixstowe. I remember the game being sort of fun, though, so don't let my experience deter you from getting it.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →even at 3.99 i cant reccoment this game. Controls are just way to rediclous and the scale is much smaller than any other tycoon games out there. YAY be the freight tycoon of a super small island???? UPDATE: i decided to play a lot more to give the game a fair chance. As it turns out everything i didnt like about it before DID NOT CHANGE... Its still small maps and small scale, which in my mind does not make for ideal tycoon gameplay. i like tycoon games and i was really hoping this was a more…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It doesn't work
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Nope, doesn't even launch! Yet another money-shovelling shower of pigs raking in peoples cash for a game that won't even launch. Yeah, it's an old game, blah blah blah - plenty of old games work absolutely fine. If it doesn't launch for the vast majority of customers with modern pc's, there should at the very least be a clear warning in the description. At best, Steam should be removing developers like this from their platform. This is tantamount to fraud! Conclusion: DO NOT BUY - IT…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Doesn't start up...
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Game used to play fine, now it won't launch. Launch screen says it is playing, but it isn't. Several suggestions by the community have not worked. Many in the community are having the same issue. Too bad, used to be a pretty good game. If it worked I would recommend it for sure. If there is ever a solution that resolves the launch issue and it begins to work again I will change my recommendation.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is short and sweet. It may not have the best graphics or storyline, but it kept me hooked.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →wasnt worth 3.99 ... this game is pretty unplayable
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Game does not start on Win 11
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →it not loading the game up
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →doesn't work on new computers
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →need a 2nd monitor just to set it up to run on windows 10. Game is effectively dead and unplayable without 2nd monitor
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →No longer works. Refuses to load - was fun while it lasted.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →game never does not load. steam shows that the game started and you can't stop it. then it count hours of play. i think this is a scam. when i requested a refund, steam mentioned that i already played 10 hours which is not true. i tried it on different laptop to no avail.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Game doesn't work, even Steam could not get it to work
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Dont Bother buying this, it dont work, it does not load its a complete waste of time and money
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Freight Tycoon is a game about transporting freight with only trucks. So no boats, planes or trains in this game. Gameplay Quite simple, though some things you have to figure out for yourself. You can haul around stuff with trucks only, later on buy garages to maintain your trucks with staff and repair/tow trucks. I think it's a fun game and I do like it but there are a few things you do need to know however. Issues/missing stuff Missing buttons, you can not upgrade your repair trucks or tow…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I think this is a nice game though it might seem a little challanging at the start. I would recommend people trying this game out... :)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →good way to kill time not much in the way of story but still worth the few bucks
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Don't bother with this game, just go play OpenTTD. When you alt-tab away game will not recover, not crashing but not showing the game screen again. Graphics are clearly outdated. Gameplay is not very engaging: just Buy truck. Get contract. Wait. Repeat.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A very detailed simulator with a lot of great features! You can tell they put a lot of effort into this game, although it is a bit old and dated by today's standards, this simple 3D engine is perfect to achieve the business aspects.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game is like OTTD
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →UPDATE for windows 10 please
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Well, you cant play the game on win10 o there isnt much to say about the game. Since most of PC's have win10 (or win11), there is no option to try out the game. Might be good, might not be good. But cannot recommend a game incompatible with up to date OS.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →game doesnt even start up trash game
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I want my money back is not working
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →use to love this game now it wont load . dont buy you cant play !!
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I enjoy this game well enogh, though it has flaws to be sure. The graphics are functional, though the lack of resolution options is annoying as it can make some text difficult to read. Also when mousing over office options, no tooltip is given for what effect the stats have, you must remember what all the little icons look like, then reference the main office page. Otherwise, it is all about figuring out what are the appropriate truks to invest in given the companies nearby. Some…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →If time and resource management is your thing, I definitely recommend this game. I've only ran into one or 2 problems since I started playing it, but other than that, it's performing flawlessly. The graphics are a teeny bit dated since it's 7 years-old, but that does not change how enjoyable this is. And for 5$ (or less if you get it on sale), I'd say it's definitely worth the money. 9/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Freight Tycoon Inc., developed by Nikita and published by Fulqrum Publishing, is a transport and logistics management simulator that places players in charge of building and expanding a freight company from modest beginnings into a dominant force in the cargo industry. At its core, the game revolves around contracts, fleet management, route optimization, and economic strategy. Rather than focusing on flashy visuals or cinematic presentation, it leans into spreadsheet-style decision-making and…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Game will not start on Windows 10, not sure why, am really annoyed because the game looks ok.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I am playing this on Windows 10 64 bit - with an secondary monitor to my laptop: This seems to be the way to play this game on Windows 10 - so first of all if you do not have an external monitor I would not recomend this game to you! That being said, it is a quite nice, low level transport management game; fairly simple compared to Tranport Tycoon/Transport Tycoon Deluxe which I have spent countless hours playing over the years - however the simplicity to this game does have it's charm. It is…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Game no longer works. Don't buy it. New update broke the game so it won't load. After playing it for years, the game now hangs on launch, registering as running on Steam, but not loading. This seems to be a widespread issue and hasn't been corrected. It's a shame - it's a great game. I'll update my review when/if they fix it. Again - don't buy it. You'll be wasting your money.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →does not work Anyone able to get this game to launch never opens but steam thinks its open even if you end steam with task manager and reopen steam it still says its open and wont launch
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →not work in win10
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →no longer works why has this game not been removed from sale ?????
