Tycoon management games

[electricmastro]

Computer games where you get to be the wealthy leader of businesses. Some of my favorites would have to include:

 

Theme Park

 

RollerCoaster Tycoon

 

SimTower

 

Aerobiz Supersonic

 

A-Train

[Cebus Capucinis]

OpenTTD is great! And free!

Railroad Tycoon, of course.

Simcity series + Cities Skylines

 

Railroad Tycoon until I discovered Transport Tycoon (and later OpenTTD)

 

Transport Fever 2-  It's like a modern 3D version of Transport Tycoon

 

Rollercoaster Tycoon + Planet Coaster

Airport Tycoon (Air Mogul) 

 

Full 3D, but with a locked off camera. There was a mode which would let you kinda walk around your airport, which was cool. The people in your airport were rendered crudely, maybe a a few dozen polygons a piece. They were actually a bit creepy, but that wasn’t a major turn off.
 

The game itself was fun, if you could work with the restrictive camera. You could buy land across the world & place airports in major cities. One city in Alaska was free; never got far enough to see the other cities.

 

Sadly, it won’t work on my new computer; I think it needs some stuff which only comes with 32-bit versions of Windows.

I was going to suggest this game! I thought I was the only one who knew it existed ☺️ In my youth, I created a "cover" for the jewel case since it bothered me it didn't come with one. 
 

Other tycoon games that haven't yet been mentioned that I enjoyed were Ski Resort Tycoon and Startopia, though the latter might be a bit genre-bending.
