Blockbuster Inc. requires a lot from you, but has the potential to give even more back if you invest the time to master the art of the masterpiece.

I’m not kidding when I say that the possibilities are endless in Blockbuster Inc. Players have the freedom and tools to create a movie of their dreams. With a large variety of costumes, sets and more at their disposal there are thousands of films to be made here. It can be almost overwhelming if I’m honest, however the game has a great tutorial that will help to ease players into the swing of things. I loved my time with Blockbuster Inc, filled that hole that The Movies had left so long ago. Its awesome to see this underserved genre in gaming seeing a resurgence; Hollywood Animal, Movie Tycoon among others, has fans of movie-making games eating good this year. Don’t sleep on Blockbuster Inc, as the first one out the gate; its an utter blast to play and create movies in this world.

With only a small team of developers, Super Sly Fox has managed to create a modern filmmaking tycoon game that gives you all the tools to build your own successful film studio. However, the game lacks the depth to keep you glued to the director's chair for dozens of hours. Blockbuster Inc. is a beautiful ode to both the magical world of filmmaking and management games. But after a while, the game becomes very repetitive, lacks any real challenge, and fails to motivate players to continue creating new films.

Blockbuster Inc. is a great business management sim for both players new to business management simulators and veterans looking for something more relaxing. There is a lot to do and build in the game that will keep you busy for hours on end.

While the game isn't quite an Oscar winner, it's certainly good enough to be nominated, bringing a fresh take on classic mechanics in a very satisfying way. It offers so much room for players to be creative, and with future plans for new features and content packs, that potential has even more room to grow. For long-time fans of the genre, Blockbuster Inc. is arguably a must-play, and newcomers will likely find a lot to enjoy too.

Blockbuster Inc. is a tough nut to crack. It's a game that allows us to create our “dream” movies and is extremely engaging. Unfortunately, it's also a title full of ill-considered decisions and chaotic gameplay. To make things worse, the repetitive nature of the game elements makes us start to feel weary after just a few hours.

Blockbuster Inc. is an incredible game that offers players the opportunity to create their own film studios and movies. With so many options available, it can be overwhelming to know where to start. Thankfully, the game provides a helpful tutorial that guides players through each step, making it easier to navigate. The game has a comforting Sims vibe but with a greater focus and more streamlined experience, creating enjoyable and immersive gameplay for all. I loved my time with Blockbuster Inc., and I’m looking forward to seeing my studio develop over the next coming decades. Blockbuster Inc is available on Steam from June 6th, and you can buy it here

While the film making simulator is fun, it's both lacking in content and buried under a huge, boring management simulator that dilutes the magic of movies.
