A fantastic management / simulation / building (design) game with tons of depth and charm.
Underrated simulation game. Very deep and tons of ways to play. Difficulty levels also give solid levels of replayability.
And the building customization is among the best in the business!
The game is good, however lots of bugs. It said I was paying 1.2 million every month for salaries when I only have 3 employees so good game just expect bugs only buy on sale
It feels just like managing a company, PIA. having to micromanage concerns and complaints then dealing with lawsuits. I recommend the game!
yo... whats up love the game. just wondering when i take over a subsidiary. the player would have to build office space for the acquired company.
Great game, even better Dev, endless possibilities.
Software Inc does give you the chance to build something very unique.
To create and even become the monopole of the market.
I might not have the hours to fully break down the review, but I can say that this game is great and deserves much more attention! Keep it doing @Coredumping and take all the time you need. Your Game is fascinating.
Truly a labour of love.
This game seems like it is underappreciated.
I bought it and proceeded to play 10 hours straight, forgetting everything else around me. Awesome work from the devs. There are so many features in the game that you can easily miss them.
The only thing I dislike is that the UI can sometimes feel convoluted. I'm starting to internalise many of the menus though, so this problem is going away by itself. Again, great game, highly recommend.
Ironically, given its subject matter, Software Inc has fallen to massive feature creep. Everything you could possibly imagine about running a computing company, from server management to stock trading, is modelled. You might find that fun, but there's simply too much going on for me.
If you're going to have that level of complexity, you need good tutorials - pop up boxes telling you what to click, without telling you *why*, aren't good tutorials. This game has been in early access since 2015 - ten years later, I fear the dev may have lost track on what the new player experience is like. It's not good enough.
There definitely is great potential, but the overcomplication needs to be addressed.
Made 10 million, moved into a bigger office, went bankrupt 10/10
its a great micro managing game, a little hard to get at first but with a little exploring you can be great
Honestly one of the best games I have ever played in my life, and I would say the best game in it's genre. This game has everything, and is done by one man. Bravo!
لعبة ممتعة مشكلتها الوحيدة هي الواجهة معقدة
been watchin this game since the beginning and damn it's gotten crazy
buy it
I loved everything about it! It's been wishlisted for 6 years, I finally decided to buy it, and it's so worth it
Definitely one of my top software building sims, There is still some improvements to be made with things but its pretty good
You can do literally everything, and I mean everything. The game has almost no restrictions, and it let's you build your own IT empire, just the way you want it
Great game, lots avenues to success.
Become a marketing agency, a call center, a hosting company, a manufacturer, a printing company, a software and tech mogul or do everything.
In depth accounting and finance sim as well.
Fantastic.
its like smashing your own head in with a hammer but fun
This game is insanely detailed. I can't really wrap my head around it. But honestly nothing I've played is like it. It merges micro and macro level management to an extent I personally haven't experienced before. It's not a perfect fit with me, but I come around to giving it a try sometimes.
This game is beautiful, you get exactly what you expect and more. Countless mods that provide positives to the game, fun multiplayer experiences and more. This game is a master piece and is continuously getting updates, that provide meaning and benefit the game. Never encountered a bug in the game and whilst running mods. You get to build software, create your own platforms, large control over decisions and good AI. This game has it all and should have more attention for what it is. You can get stuck playing this game for hours and I'm sure the development team for this game has even more installed for us.
Extremely challenging yet fun play through.
This is an amazing game, and I've been enjoying it for years! The gameplay is incredibly engaging, and I love the depth it offers. One area I'd love to see expanded in future updates is the employee management/HR system. It would be fantastic to have a more robust feature that allows for promotions, with each new role introducing additional elements, responsibilities, and tasks specific to that position. A fully developed "climb the ladder" career progression for team members would add even more depth to the game. Overall, great job on creating such an enjoyable experience! Keep up the excellent work!
10/10 game. Very amazing have lived many lives:
-Tax evasion Company that hid millions in gold and silver from the government,
-Cheap Chinese Rip off Manufacturing company making console controllers for other company's consoles,
-Making Millions in a garage having bought subsidiary companies that make me money,
-Becoming a monopoly that owns the game you want to play, the engine you want to play it on, the console you have to play it on, and the controller you have to use.
-Royalty Baron, owning every yearly technology patent making hundreds of millions a month,
-Owning and maintaining all the servers that every software runs on and having some thieves steal them all and shutting down the entire ingame market services.
-Evil Company that spends its money shutting down random businesses for no reason with ddos attacks,
-Becoming the market's choice for programming languages (modded) and come out with a $60 new programming language every 2 months and shutting down support for older ones.
-Making my own company building, ingnoring fire safety and the inspector yelling at me for me to have the building burn down the next month.
-And of course, LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS of contract work to get me to these points lol
Only thing I don't necessarily like about the game is just the Hardware aspect. Don't get me wrong its just as complex and cool as everything else in the game but personally it takes too long and too much money for me to make a good factory, by that point I've already got a cool story for the company I am playing and don't want to deviate away for the sake of making my own products in house.
Deeply Addicting once you pass the learning curve of youtube videos
The developer seems to be stuck in a feature-creep loop and can't get out. The game's been in early access development for nearly a decade. They've added so many mechanics that just aren't fun, at least for me. As a result of this, I simply cannot recommend it.
I absolutely love this game it's so fun when staff ask for a raise and you get so pissed that you dock their pay instead but in all seriousness this game is just great.
Great game, challenging, many features, allows for creativity. There is however a bit of a learning cuve. Constant updates, support and development allow for little to no bugs and new features.
Fun game with a visible progression in updates.
Software Development. Alternatively Bankruptcy
A very cool simulation game allowing you to take many different paths to success.
An amazing game with an amazing solo developer. He's been working on this game for a long time, but is still supporting and updating this game. Would highly recommend!
Very Fun game, lots of complexities that aren't too hard to get the hang of.
I suck at it. Really fun though
This game is one of the most Complex and detailed business. It made me feel like i'm Entrepreneur.
One of the Few games that i think is a masterpiece and has so much potential- I hope this game gets better
After many many years of owning this game I'm only 100 hours in, but I always find myself coming back to Software INC.
It's a game that's still relevant, a game you can still get lost in, one of those "I'll play an hour" then find out you've played 10 straight hours and it's now 2am.
The fact this game is still getting updates/patches shows how good of a title this is and is well worth the purchase, even more so to just support the creator.
Great game, I've been playing this game off and on since 2018. I love to see the updates they are doing to the game almost 7 years later. I'd totally recommend this game to anyone who loves management games.

Please describe what you liked or disliked about this game and whether you recommend it to others.
Please remember to be polite and follow the Rules and Guidelines.
I really like the production aspect of the game. It is really satisfying once you manage to create an intricate assembly line for the components. Also I like constructing the office building, there is a lot of customization.
Compared to other games from this genre I'd say it stands out on it's own. The game is getting continuously updated.
For future features it would be nice to have more options in the types of software designed (the ones from the workshop are mostly outdated unfortunately), also it would be nice if the frameworks would be it's own separate product, so they could be easier maintained.
One of the best game dev tycoon game out there, with its unique gameplay is not a clone of "game dev story" as most of these usually are.
There are very in-depth mechanics on the long run like server management for an MMO, etc.
After all these years it keeps being updated.
This is my most played game on Steam. I always come back to it. I've been playing it for nearly 10 years, and it has consistently gotten better and more detailed.
Have been playing Software Inc. on and off again for years now and this is probably the only early access game i can truly recommend, as the developer is always updating/improving the game and its systems,
Making it the only Early Access game I can look forward to a new update without thinking "what have they messed up now".
I Cannot wait for the next update.
There are a few things that could be improved upon, such as... when buying out the competition and creating a monopoly, a new company just pops up with nothing in the news or real impact of the sales but that could be down to difficulty settings. I haven't got any solid ideas so i cannot suggest anything to the dev.
Extremely moreish game that is hard to put down when picked up. Love the business management aspects of it!
Very well detailed game so far. Looking at the update history, seems this game is very well worked on and more gets added/fixed. Looking forward to continued plays.
Came back recently to this game, great to see all the improvements since last playing.
Still playing this game from time to time.
At it's price point I can only recommend this game.
Very good game with realistic mechanics
not sure if this is just me but the ui is TINY. please add an option to resize the ui, it made the game near unplayable for me.
edit: as it turns out, there is actually a resize option. thanks, Coredumping, for making me feel like an idiot.
Great game, one of those sandbox games that are endlessly fun and comical once you're building B2B SaaS software products, managing 15 support contracts and have hardware manufacturing all on the same floor.
Great Game
The game itself is very flexible, BUT be warned you will need a tutorial on how software should be developed because... DEAR GOD is it hard. But I feel that some mechanics could use a deeper explanation like a "manual" like tutorial just for the more detailed explanations. And i feel the UI is a bit cluttered.
