Not a bad game, though I do have two annoying points , both happen when you have a large fleet , the first is your fuel capacity which is set at 8000, you do not appear to be able to increase it , this slows the game down, the other is you have to fuel and send out each ship one by one again when your fleet is large is a pain and takes a long time
Fun in the early game. Late-game, it becomes really heavy on refueling and buying up bunker when it's cheap. That would be fine, but... there's no way to significantly improve your storage capacity or do auto-fueling without paying A LOT. There are ways to buy FOB points, but the points you get don't get you much. 2k tonnes of bunker fuel storage is nothing when you have multiple ships with maxed out engines.
Brilliant game only problem is the developers seem to have stopped any in fame assistance and are no longer looking at the few issues there are like with achievements in game are not being recognised and when you put something In forum for them to look into there is no response from them and it doesn't get fixed but as I said the main frame of the game is a brilliant play and I would change to 5* if the issues are looked into
There are lots of aspects in this business as i have an interest as a worker,captain and logistic operator in my past and this 9s the most simplified and alao realistic game play for trade business. Yes it could be a bit more complicated but i like this anyway. Hard to understand at start but you can reset anytime if you do a big mistake.
This app is really cool. I enjoy it a lot, i dont have any issues at all using it. No bugs. No advertisements jumping up, no half a game that requires you to pay for the rest to be able to play it. Thanks xombat
A great game that I have played for 3 years now, I enjoy the simulated bussiness enviroment and the fact you can add personalisation into the mix. The onky fault is that the game doesn't recognise all my achievements despite meeting the needed requirments.
FOB achievements do not get rewarded as described. To others checking reviews before trying, don't bother, without the achievements there is no point in playing. It will eventually become a repetitive boring cycle.
Easy to understand and straightforward. Takes some time to get somewhere so expect to invest some days to rise and shine. Unfortunately not available when offline. It would be helpful to have a map where you can zoom in and see the ships movement.
A great game but in terms of the FOB pointing system, It should be reviewed for all players to understand. I personally understand why it was placed and in the specific way it was placed. I believe the developers deserve to get paid for such an exceptional job and in the proccess be direct on in which way they would like to gain in order to further their developments etc, I believe the transparency will encourage users of app to purchase in support without the thought of being ripped off.
Love it, earn profits and increase your fleet. There are seperate ships for Cargo & Oil. So we earn a regular income from cargo ships, but when the fuel prices rise, thats' when the Oil tankers are at their best, large profits! I dont' get the FOB points for all the achievements as specified, from the app, but through facebook I get the points. Please fix this issue!* Well I hope there will be some improvements & new stuff soon!☺
great idea and nice to play. Only down site is the very long time it take to sail. Even short trips take at least 15 min our more. So not a game to keep you busy for a long time. MORE like login send out vessels and logout then wait till timers runs out again. Plus for the game is that you can buy shares of other players what potential could get you extra cash.
Been playing for a long time. Paid 500 FOB pts today to increase my bunker and it hasn't upgraded my oil bunker. 1 5.22. Now I can't access my game that I've had for years bc it says it's in development. Either fix it or give me ALL MY MONEY
I loved the game but I'm guessing it's no longer playable. I've tried to contact via email and nothing. Game will no longer log in. I'm the founder of one of the top companies. And now it's all gone.
This game is so good. I like the aspect of managing the company then other players can buy shares in your company. The game requires patience but we need more games with such type of ideas... However its not all perfect, there should be a place to evaluate companies easily and identify new companies
Game no longer loads. Just a white screen with the side buttons that never load anything. It was a great game a few years ago and it's a real shame it no longer works. So developers please fix it again
It's a difficult, bare bones near real time stock market and shipping game. It's a bit old, but overall an amazing game.
Nice game. Don't know if will be updated but it's an interesting managerial. Some menus and windows are a little bit confused. Market share is magic, 90% of time you gain money 😁
Nothing interesting at all. Very hard to use the interface. No tutorial. The system just the worst
Fun management game, simple concept but complex enough to keep it very fun and engaging.
Very nice game . I would suggest that every ship travelling time should from 1 hour to 10 hours , no matter how long distance is .Please improve this and take the above advice into the account
Game is interesting if you have patience.... but i have problem with FOB points. I achieved the achievement of Share value 10 but i didn't get it... Why? Please solve
This has some issues. You only make 45,000$ per shipment but on the PC through Facebook you make more. I only use this to make ship's seems that things are buggy there.
It should be easier to find out which routes are profitable, even without having a ship available.
Please make it possible to login with Google (just like Shipping Manager 3) so we can save the progress. Not everyone has a facebook account.
As it took a day or so me to understand the game I made several purchases and invested wrong unable to reset please help me I've logined by my Facebook and even after reinstalling it even now showing the same
Very addicting, makes me want to play for a long time to grow my company until it reaches top 10 leaderboard status and beyond.
I had a good start, being able to master the basics and applying some school lessons into the game. So far, I have been enjoying it, even if it is all but graphs and charts. I do have a few suggestions which I placed on the feedback in the board section which concerns multiple orders for specific specifications. Perhaps you can add an update where we can opt to order more than one ship with the same specifications. That is all and thank you...
