Action Trip by Dusan "Lynx" Katilovic

"...Capitalism II is a sequel of a very successful game which appeared on the market five years ago, achieving something that no game achieved since - giving the players a chance to experience all the thrills of creating an economic empire, in a realistic and more importantly, fun way. The success of the original Capitalism is further proved by fact that some schools of economy around the globe started using it for practice..."

"What makes Capitalism II really different from its predecessor is the higher level of diversification in all business aspects and advanced AI. It is no more possible to sell any product in general stores; medicines are now sold in drug stores, food in groceries, etc. this move was a big risk for the development team, as it might have easily turned the game in a chaotic nightmare. Fortunately, they used their best skill and knowledge to turn all this into clear and intuitive statistics showing all details concerning the retailers, and supply and demand."

"Even though Capitalism II looks indisputably far more mature than its predecessors, it still has room for further improvements. This doesn't mean that I think this game has any flaws; I just think that one day, with a bit of luck, we might get to play Capitalism III, in which you will be able to take the next logical step in business development and engage in politics."
