I've been playing Pizza Tycoon this week, and actually really enjoying it.

It started as a nostaligia trip because I remember enjoying the vibe of this game when I was a little kid that didn't really understand it, and I assumed it would be an awful old DOS game, but to my surprise I've been playing it bunch.

Not seeing much about the game online, does anyone else play this?

I played it as a kid, and making the pizzas was a lot of fun, but I never managed not to completely fuck things up. Iirc a lot of it involved doing specific things at specific in-game times, which was kind of frustrating?

You gotta buy "ice cream" to raid the other pizza shops. I never figured that out as a kid.

yeah as an adult I realize that just bulk buying icecream in one place and selling it another makes you a multimillionaire crimelord overnight, and you can spend the rest of the game building pizza shops and bombing your competitors shops. Not sure if this is social parody of just German humor.
