What do you get when you combine a role-playing game with a business sim? You get Big Ambitions and you can now try it out on Steam Early Access. In the game, players start from scratch and work their way to become the biggest entrepreneur in New York.
This latest milestone comes just a little under three years since the development of the game started in May 2020. According to a post by the team at Hovgaard Games, the idea for the game was simple: come up with a management/tycoon game that offers the freedom experienced in RPGs.
Features of the game include:
