Sorry everyone life has really gotten in the way as of late. Hopefully this calm down soon and I can do these more frequently again.
As always the game has had an US release.
I’ll release the answer if no one answers. Please refrain from using image search
Can you guess the game ?
Don't need to guess. It took me many years to realize elevator shafts could hold more than one elevator car.
Simtower?
Correct !
Even if you didn't know what it was, you could narrow down the release date to the mid 90s just from the scrollbar.
Damn, i was too slow to see the post lol I loved playing Simtower :-)
That game was so good but fuck I never managed to win 😭
I loved that game, very simple but so much fun
I used to love this game as a kid. Tried to return to it a few years later though and found it was one of those 'game speed = cpu speed' setups which was unplayably fast on my new 800mhz machine. I should track down an emulator for it...
Too bad you didn't have a turbo button.
Before you get too far, get yourself Yoot Tower. It's same game just with a lot of improvements and fixes. Yoot Saito is a legend.
oh!!! awesome thanks!
I don't need to guess, I know it is Sim Tower
Same. I saw the picture before reading the title and immediately thought, "Cool! Someone's playing SimTower! I haven't seen that game in ages!"
SimTower Publisher: Maxis Developer:OpenBook Release: 1994 Platform: Windows PC
Winner: BrunoMLopes
Oh man! I actually knew this one, but I was too late.
Keep it up! I'll get it one of these days.
Great, now I'm hearing that loop of elevator dings and office chatter!
Ding!
blehblehblheblhelbelhelbehlbelbelhehebhbshjbda
Mmm, brings me back...
I played that new in the box :|
Ah SimTower is so fun lol I played it in the browser a few weeks back just to experience it again. Those sim games are always a blast, I’ll have to go back to Simcity and SimCopter sometime
I was gonna guess something to do with King Kong. Hope life gets out of your way sooner than later!
Never saw it before. My best guess would have been that one fun flash game on armorgames where you build a office complex with workers inside pushing buttons. Which name I have also sadly forgot. :(
Corporation Inc. Immediately thought of that as well. I don't know what magic ArmorGames pulled to keep these playable, but here: https://armorgames.com/play/7348/corporation-inc
