Should give a little something for grinding, so you don't always restart at the same level. Maybe some XP, or some extra money, anything, since the monsters increase faster, you are sure to loose.
Drives are the money makers.
First the one that sells for 250, and then the Pulse Drive that sells for 2000.
Always produce drives, and the game becomes easy. For the other products use a factory that is producing too fast. Usually, when producing the Pulse Drive, the yellow semi-product is producing too much, so you can take the time and build all the other products. Make the new factories a priority at first, not the storage, although you want to upgrade the one you start with.
I ended up with a factory worth 250 000 after 50 days, and all the products done quite before the end. No need to bother with the contracts.
I am surprised this game has not a better rating.
The only thing is that it is a bit long, you should be able to cancel a project, and fire workers. Also you should not be able to put someone in training on a project. It lags a bit towards the end, but nothing major.
I got 6000 with the start others have commented about. 5/7 ratio, start at 40 cents, increase 5 cents per month. Turn 4, get pamplets, turn 8 radio, turn 9 pamphlets, turn 11 tv. Start increasing 10 cents once you have the radio, and with the TV, increase as if the max reputation was 8$, but once you reach the max, around turn 25, make it 9$. I think it is the optimum, from my tests.
I gave you your 5 stars.
The interface is really good, and the idea is good as well. I like that there are pause buttons on every screen.
However, as many others have said, before level 16 or so, the levelling is too fast, and after, it is way too slow. In the beginning, it is pretty brutal, as every race you level up, but you don't have enough money to pay the increase in salary and house. On top of that, there is a random event after a few days, which can break your game.
Maybe adding something else as a goal would be good as well, because just making money is not really good enough, especially when you end up making more from the bank then from races. What would be nice, is that the opponents would not be random, but would be people to beat in each race and you would get a medal to be the best in each, or something like that.
Also the last few races are too hard. I was level 24 and tried the last one on the easier setting, and I had to buy all the shop items to win it.
Quite enjoyable.
For the normal valves, I moved the mouse back and forth left right, right left.
Not sure if it is how it is supposed to be done, since it does not make sense, but it works pretty fast.
Took awhile to find the screwdriver, but after that it was fairly straightforward. The puzzles make sense, as it should.
A 5 for sure.
HI OneLiner,
About what quest are you talking, the first one? I think you complete the tutorial and you can go to the normal game screen to proceed with the second one. If not and if you still face problems, could you describe it a bit more in details so that we can try t reprodue it and fix the problem, if thre is one?
Cheers Legolas
To get too Union City on time. Research every building in Glendale, Whistler and Aspenwood. You should get enough supplies to get to Union City and skip Jonestown. I did it in 33 days, so that gives a few extra days spare. Whistler is better because of the Bow, which is the best weapon for you after the Chainsaw. Always try to get the maximum search you can, especially in the first city. In fact, you can search it all without repairing the barricade, if you are good enough. Give the guns to the survivors and keep the chainsaw for yourself.
To get the don't die badge, your barricade has to stay up at the end. It is not enough to not die if the barricade was destroyed and you are the only one alive.
On relax, I find parasites to work best, with the max of Drug resistance. Otherwise, it goes too fast and countries will shut down and create the vaccine.
On realistic, virus with one resistance to each element.
Don't use transmission and take out any symptoms when you start exporting in other countries. This way you maximize your chances to get all the countries.
Madagascar, sometimes will get infected even though the shipyard is closed, if a ship was going there. So it is worth to wait a day or two after they shut down to be sure.
