About Rec Center Tycoon - Management Simulator
Rec Center Tycoon draws inspiration from the simulation/management classics like Theme Hospital as well as modern classics like Prison Architect to give you a deep, challenging business management game where you build and run a recreation center from the ground up. Micromanage employees, finances, fitness classes, customer needs and much more!
Start small, building a nice inviting, chill gym. Hire employees, decide their wages & choose their work hours. Maybe take out a bank loan. As you progress through the research tree you'll unlock new equipment, facilities & much more. Work your way up to building a giant, bustling Rec Center with hundreds of members, running fitness classes like aerobics & swimming. All taught by your team of fitness instructors. Hire lifeguards & nurses to keep your customers safe. Keep your plants watered, bins empty & cafe full of food & you're on your way to success! Here's just a sample of some features you may enjoy:
•
Challenging gameplay; unlike many other management/simulation games, failure is a possibility in Rec Center Tycoon. You must keep your customers happy or they may leave negative reviews which can hurt future business leading to poor profits.
•
Large selection of buy-able exercise equipment to keep customers satisfied.
•
Many different employees types, from your simple receptionist to a boxing trainer.
•
Every employee has different motivations, skill levels & traits. Some employees may prefer short 5 hour shifts, others are happy to work 12 hour shifts. An unfit, yet charismatic employee won't make a good lifeguard, but they might make a great receptionist. It's up to you to choose the right employee for the job!
•
Hire fitness instructors & create your own fitness classes.
•
Host customer parties in your Event Rooms for an added source of income.
•
Build a café & hire a barista. You'll need a few cooks to keep the cafe stocked and do catering for any events you may be hosting.
•
Create your own manager who is always on-site & can perform various duties to help out & keep things running smoothly.
•
Take control of your manager & manually walk around and do a variety of tasks yourself!
•
Hire a nurse & build an infirmary for the inevitable accidents that come from customers swimming & using all kinds of heavy gym equipment.
•
Running low on money? Take out a loan from the bank! Beware of the interest rates though.
•
Complex financial system. Do you charge a flat rate for entry? Or make entry free but dramatically increase the cost of amenities like café food and arcade machines? Do you lock facilities like swimming behind a membership? What will your daily membership costs be?
And there's a whole lot more to come! For the moment Rec Center Tycoon is only available for the Windows platform with possibilities for Mac & Linux support added after.
