In this game you start your own car factory, you can build and design your own cars, research new parts, advertise for your product etc etc. The idea is that you compete agains 3 other computer/human companies. Produce the very best car there is, export it to other parts of the world or just keep it local.
A very good game, the idea is great and the graphics are ok. The sounds are ok and the gameplay is good. |

Detroit was a game that I first played in the early 90's. It’s quite a complex management game where you manage a car company. You can design your own vehicles and this is the aspect of the game that made it more interesting than other management games of the time.
Graphics were reasonable for the time, but this was not an action game but a resource management and research game that was ahead of its time. It certainly preceded other classic management games like theme hospital, park etc that came out in later years. There was a good main screen where you saw your factory and another where you choose which dept to go to, i.e. design, research, accounts, employee relations and other parts of the game.
It did not have good staying power, mostly because the graphics were always static and you could not get any action. However I like the game very much. |

This game is based around start of Mass production of the Ford Model T. The games looks at the development of parts like breaks, suspension, engine, you also get to develop little luxuries to go with your masterpiece. Whilst this is happening you get to customize the car by changing the type of car that it will be sedan, small truck, sports or luxury. Change your nose: make it longer, shorter or in-between. You can then change the middle section there is a number of different type of middle bits. Different doors, windscreen and roof. Then you have the back section, you get the choice open back or enclosed section with different model shapes, you also get to choice length of the back once you have designed you car, it is now time put the car together. If it is your first car you get the use of a basic 1700 cc 4 cylinder and a simple hand break. There are no suspension or luxury items, these you have to work on. When you have finished your fist car send the prototype to the test track were the testers will do a performance test, standing start 0-60 MPH, breaking, top speed fuel economy and cornering. Because the car does not have suspension and only a hand break the engine is very basic.
All in all, very original game. Try it. |
