I am a HUGE tycoon/sim style game fan. I love the games styled lik villagers, where you build your town/community/world peacefully. While there are a gabillion of this type of game out there, Im lazy in that I hate to have to fight some other kingdom/castle or whatever to keep what I built and land I builtup. Id like to see a game where you start with nothing, build the "town, village, island, ect" into a productive and thriving community with enough population to run it, then move on to a different area to do the same. In a sense, create a simple world out of nothing without having any one other than ma natures unpredictability to hamper your efforts. She can cause enough stress with hurricanes, tornados, _bug_ infestings, snow and ice storms (depending on your location) You could be working towards being a major land tycoon that has the responsibility to go to each area and create and populate it. There wouldnt even have to be anything extremely fancy, like airports..tourist areas....major modern living ideas....Just good ole simple existance from nothing...but with full sequence of whats needed...*ie..you can build a fishermans hut...but you need bait to fish..so someone has to collect the worms/bait and sell to fisherman before he can fish. you can build a food market, but you need someone to have grown the veggies/fruit first or your food market will have nothing to sell. As the land developer, you start out with xx$ to begin building. Each business/job you create earns you money to continue building and when you have fully developed the first area and have made a set required amount needed to move on, then you can develop a secoond area and so on. Each area can be a little bit different in what businesses are allowed or needed..meaning if there is no water, you wont have fishermen but you might have farms but need peeps to go out and gather whatever available seeds are around in order to be able to plant anything.
Anyway you get the idea, every business needed to provide something has to also have been provided with the product in the first place. Now that Ive reread this, it sounds like it may be a huge complicated game. Geez life is complicated.
