Landlord Tycoon

First I must admit this is the best money management, real estate investment, empire building app out there. So at first I was like ehhh this is going to be a bland game not much was going to happen... Shoot I was wrong, I enjoy buying property and land around me. I got to watch my empire grow from 100,000 as I bought properties through the year to 1.1 billion. Now yes you can spend money and get coins to buy cities which I am aiming for and if you don’t want to spend money you watch adds for coins. But I give this game a top rating cause they constantly update the game it’s easy to navigate and you can even bid on properties for buying and selling and you can even request to purchase property from someone near by. I almost forgot to mention the percent system, you have to buy out the property at 100%. For example the local apartments is 100% and I want to buy it but another landlord owns 40% of it and 60% ownership is for sale, in order to for me to owner the whole property I have to buy the 60% then make an offer to the other landlord for the 40% so I can own the whole property and collect the monthly rent. But if the landlord does not want to sell it then all is not lost, you can either offer him a offer he can’t refuse or sell the 60% to him at double the purchase price. The game is more detailed then you may think. Hands down try it out you will enjoy it!!

This game is pretty fun but requires a lot of patience. This is not a game where you play for a couple hours and it’s over. It can go for months and even longer depending on gig your property portfolio is. Coins are an important commodity so to achieve the objective of the game do not squander your coins on non essential upgrades early in the game. The first round of properties will soon be obsolete after you level up a couple times. You have to hunt for higher value real estate in order to keep leveling up and receive more coins. Be selective on properties because you will pay a 10% tax on purchase . You don’t want to buy properties without some sort of plan because if you seek back to the bank you are charged 20% so it’s easy to waste a lot of money by not having some sort of purchase plan. Coins are scarce so be frugal and upgrade carefully. I like that you can buy about almost any property but some are just not worth purchasing so choose wisely. If you like a lot of action this is not your game. If you are patient and looking for a long term game I think you will like this. Buy your favorite stadium, Casio. Buy and flip the hottest properties for profit. Buy high value properties hold and rent . The choice is yours on how to play the game. I response did giving it a try you just may live it like I do.

Terrific and fun. I have even made some in-app purchases- which is saying a lot! It’s based on a great idea to make use of your phone’s gps and all the reams of online information about real world businesses. Has a similar appeal as pokemon go, i guess, but not as overtly cartoonish. I love playing this one whenever I go somewhere new, or familiar, to see if i can score a cool property. And of course its satisfying to watch it make you some fake money- really appeals to the entrepreneurial spirit- I just wish I knew someway to get real money from it! To the developers- the game is fine as is, but by all means, do keep thinking of ways to improve it- for instance I have no need to see the top cities nearest me- they are all 100% owned and that doesn't look like its going to ever change here. Personally I would rather be able to view a wider radius. The only reason i’m giving 4 instead of 5 is because i routinely get the same “oops no idea whats wrong” message about a possible server issue- the app worked like a charm for the first few months was using it, but now I’m lucky if I can even play it- my progress simply won’t load 90% of the time i try to use the app- I’m pretty sure its not my hardware- since every other app on my phone works just fine, and definitely not my internet connectivity. Still love to use it though, when its working- so... fix that one thing and it’s 5 stars from me all day long!!! .

I like this game overall. It’s not without flaws, which I’ll mention in a second. This game is great for people who want to play a game for a few minutes each day. You can watch your investments and properties grow (or shrink!) in value, just like in the real world. Buy low, sell high just as you would with your own investments. Now - for the downfalls. The game quite often displays errors, or simply won’t load the servers. (Very frustrating at times). Larger town/geographic areas require coins along with the in game $. Coins are acquired by watching ads, or in app spending of money. 1 ad = 2 coins. 5 ad limit per day. (So 3650 coins per year if you were VERY diligent about watching 5 ads per day). Coin price on properties fluctuates illogically- example to buy .1% of two local towns, one is 50 coins & 95mil @ $68k daily profit, the other is 125 coins & 1.3mil @ $950 daily profit. You also have to use coins to expand your abilities in the game - allow you to own more properties, land, paperwork processing, cash tank size, decrease property costs, etc. My other frustration is there’s no way to sort properties for sale, or to filter them down based on income potential. Also to view income potential, you have to click into each property. There’s a lot more ways this game can be improved, but I still enjoy it for a few min each day.
