Industry Giant (2018)

Released in 2018 as an updated iteration of its 1997 predecessor, "Industry Giant" invites players to navigate the turbulent waters of business and prove their mettle as an industrial magnate. The original game emerged during a period of global financial uncertainty and groundbreaking technological shifts, mirroring the game's core challenge: building a profitable enterprise amidst economic flux. Starting with humble beginnings – a factory, a store, and a few lorries – players will strategically acquire raw materials, manufacture a diverse range of over 30 products across various industries like toys, sports goods, jewelry, furniture, automobiles, and electronics, and implement shrewd advertising campaigns. The objective is simple: achieve financial success, outmaneuver up to three intelligent AI competitors through astute management or strategic buyouts, and ascend to the pinnacle of industrial power. This economic strategy simulation offers a compelling blend of accessible controls and deep complexity, promising an engaging experience for aspiring industrialists.
