The game begins without the Casual genre, and it is later (Year 3 Month 11) unlocked for research. This advantage is counterbalanced by the maintenance costs of an MMO, that will gradually outweigh the profit, causing the player to lose money, unless they rejuvenate the MMO through an expansion pack or utilize the temporary increase on sales from a convention.īelow is the current listing of genres.
It will never automatically go off the market, instead continuing to sell until removed by the player. Any genre, or combination of genres, can be a base for a MMO. It uses one or two genres as a building block, and derives its preferred technological and design focuses from the base genre. Even after researching Multi-Genre, you can still create a game with only one genre by simply leaving one of the boxes empty, allowing you to still get "Great Combo" with such topics.Ī Massive Multiplayer Online Game ( MMO) is a late-game genre. This will allow you to create a game while selecting two of the genres together to create a specialized genre.Ĭertain Topics can only be a "Great Combo" with one genre (for example, Pirate can only be paired with Adventure).

So say I cram every feature I can into a category, resulting in a cumulative bonus of "30", but the time allocation limit says that category is at 33%, then the maximum bonus I can get out of that time allocation is 10. and that total amount of bonus is limited by the time allocation. This Guide lists the Perfect Settings for each Genre, their ideal Target Markets, and Release Dates. I could be totally wrong about this, but I believe that the 'game features' such as Day&Night Cycle add a potential amount of bonus score to the game ( Wiki explanation on feature scores ).
