A building and management simulation game where players construct and operate their own factories, extracting resources, manufacturing goods, and selling products while competing against rival tycoons.
Captain of Industry is a complex economic strategy and building simulation game developed and published by Code Harbor. In Captain of Industry, players take on the role of an upstart business tycoon in the early 20th century, building and managing their own sprawling factory empires.
Gameplay revolves heavily around supply chains, logistics, and managing complex production lines. Players must secure resources like iron ore, coal, wood, and oil to fuel their factories. These raw resources are used to produce intermediate goods like steel beams, mechanical parts, and fabric which in turn are combined to create valuable end products for sale like vehicles, furniture, or clothing.
A key aspect of Captain of Industry is balancing supply and demand economics. Factories must be meticulously designed for optimal workflow and efficient routing of materials. Players also compete against ruthless rival tycoons who control their own corporate empires. Business tactics like hostile takeovers, economic warfare, and sabotage come into play.
Captain of Industry provides a uniquely sophisticated tycoon experience that rewards thoughtful planning and number crunching as much as economic ruthlessness. With full mod support and robust multiplayer with up to 16 players, it’s a complex and compelling game for would-be industrialists.
