Tycoon games put you in charge of growing a business. You start small, a lemonade stand, a theme park, a hospital, and grow it by hiring staff, upgrading facilities, setting prices, and reacting to what customers want. The genre runs from RollerCoaster Tycoon to a long line of mobile games that let you run everything from airports to zoos.

A Makermint version starts with the business you describe. Tell it what you want to build and manage, and Makermint builds a playable 2D tycoon game with the basics in place, ready in your browser in a few minutes. Ask for a new upgrade or a rival competitor in plain language, and play the next version right away.
