Geniu$: The Tech Tycoon Game

Part puzzle game, part simulation, Geniu$: The Tech Tycoon Game has players developing real-life inventions as part of a start-up bicycle business in 1850. The goal is to take the small business and build it into an international empire by expanding it to five global cities, including Berlin, Detroit, Pittsburgh, London, Berlin, and Melbourne. While the main aspect of play involves gradually increasing the business using more than 40 distinct building types, players must also choose the right inventions during the next 100 years by reading research journals, hiring scientists, and solving over 100 physics-based and mathematical puzzles. ~ Scott Alan Marriott, All Game Guide
