BEST Management Games To Watch In 2024 & 2025!!

I know that reus in dutch means giant, but how to pronounch it in english I do not know

I think Reus is Ray-us

I especially look forward to Espiocracy, it has very much potential.

Espiocracy

none of these look any good

Supermarket manager looks interesting.
Microcivilisation from the bonus section looks interesting too.

The war games and battle games are not for me. Especially not the one where you can play as the Nazis in WW2. Like why would anyone even make that? I mean I know that the other countries didn’t actually think the holocaust was bad at the time and turned a blind eye to it. But at least they didn’t actually do one in the area of where the game takes place. So to make a game where players play as a Nazi is just a big yikes from me.

ree-us is how i pronounce it but i doubt that is how it's really pronounced.

How and why did Football Manager 2024 not make it on the list???

Ground of aces

I want to play all of these :O 2024 is gonna be amazin

Seaorama is listed as release on 14th December 2023

Seaorama (Transocean 3?) and News Tower, along with W&R series please Comrade Potato.

Overboss is based on a series of board games that have had some pretty successful crowdfunding. Should be good.

Gladiators Manager looks interesting. Finally, something really new in management

Reus getting a sequel after… HOW LONG? was not expecting that.

1. News Tower
2. Espiocracy
3. Hollywood Animal
4. Kaiju Commander
5. Tavern Keeper

Oh man. I feel the trade route game itch for some time now, so SeaOrama and Let Them Trade sound supper interesting to me. Thanks for the list!

Fun fact: Cursed Crew is made by several prominent Rimworld modders

mind over magic looks like it is a good addition to the don't starve franchice, looks a little less brutal!!

hi,
may i enquire how certain "supermarket manager" will be released? because the devs already ghosted their steam page for an eternity. someone brought your recent promoting to attention in steam discussion, so it brings a glimmer of hope, if ever so slightly? perhaps some insider news we do not know? however, the very bad experience from empty promises already broken trust in the dev and publisher who are responsible.

The one comment I have is, how is Manor Lords not in this list? It looks better than all of these put together (clearly an exaggeration). Espiocracy does look good!

Unfortunately, Overboss is made by goblinz so I gotta pass on it. They had my friend part of a streaming promotion for one of their games and at the last minute removed them from it with no communication. Always took that as them not wanting us to play their games so I'm sticking with that.

Hollywood Animal seems quite similar to Showrunner and I hope we get even more games like this, it looks good.

Infection Free Zone reminds me in very good ways of the Rebuild series and you can't go wrong with that. Excited for it.

Gladiators Manager is the exact type of game I keep getting sucked into and ending up barely playing, can't wait to see if this gladiator game breaks my "curse"

Kaiju Commander has a fun premise but holy crap that UI looks awful. I hope they touch up on that.

Songs of Silence might be just the thing after Hero's Hour which I spent a lot of time in. I love that game to bits.

a good one im looking forward to is vampire clans. i think its by the same makers of pirate commander, but this one seems to have a more likely release soon.
you build a vampire clan empire and take over the city etc.

Can't wait for Norland..

Infection free, Seaorama, and supermarket. Sold.

Do I hear a south west Scottish tone?

Looking forward to Hollywood Animal, seems like a successor to the Movies game from Lionshead, also News Tower looks like a lot of fun

I don't understand why but a whole lot of these games have that cartoonish cutesy look which conflicts with the complex nature of the management games. I think this also affects their marketability badly since the target audience for the cartoon look aren't really into management genre.

Car manufacturer has been in development for years it seems like it.

The word "Reus" is Dutch for "giant". The /eu/-sound is generally difficult to explain to people who speak English, because there isn't a direct equivalent. However, the closest to it, imo, is the sound of "ir" in "to stir" or "bird", without the rhotic end. Alternatively, if you know a bit of German or a Scandinavian language, the sound is very similar to /ö/.

Mostly looking forward to Reus 2. Hope it is easier to get into than the first one. Tried to reboot that one and realized I have no idea what to do anymore 😀

SeaOrama: World of Shipping was free on Twitch

Mind over Magic is already out on dec.14, and god damnnnn is it a fun game!!! Im loving it!

KGB simulator and the Hollywood simulator look really interesting. It's a pity they are so far away

SeaOrama is apparently out now; Amazon is offering it on their proprietary launcher as a perk for Prime subscribers

"Sim Companies” is quite fun too :]

I miss the days when we have drug dealer management games

All game work Android

The Crust looks promising from what I've seen of it. Moon base management with a surface and underground layer.

Say rear but with a pout. That's how you pronounce Reus, which means giant as others have already pointed out. I don't think there's a similar vowel sound in the average English language.

Mind over magic, espiocracy, news tower, Hollywood animal, and cursed crew all seem interesting.

absolute definitely play mars horizons 2
i played MH1 for like 200+ hours whilst being in full time education during covid
