HOW SURE ARE WE
Not in any grossing chart, so this comes from ratings growth (222 new ratings a month on average since launch): revenue grows with new ratings, more slowly for apps that collect ratings fast. Tested on 418 apps with verified revenue: typically off by about 2 times, and big earners tend to come out low. Countries we don't track (and Google Play in China, which doesn't exist) aren't included, and neither are ads or web payments. Gross revenue before store fees.

★★★★★ This game has a lot of problems it needs to work out as it has a lot of unbalanced features.You lose money faster than strippers nowadays and can't even live long unless you pay real money.
★★★★★ No matter what options/strategy I try, I lose more money.
★★★★★ After 5 hours worth of building up wealth, gone in seconds because of the last will glitch.
WHAT THEY ASK FOR
  • fun game still wish there were tutorials or something lol 5★, Apr 30, 2026
  • Also it would be cool if you can adopt kids and have relationships with more than your partner like with your kids I think you just need more.Thanks for listening and taking time to hopefully write a response. 3★, Aug 15, 2024
  • Good game I would recommend adding an option to add a business and not just real estate 4★, Jul 22, 2024
  • I just wish there was a alert feature for investing like the street market. 5★, Oct 26, 2023
  • every time I succeed in achieving some thing the next minute I need another step to get to where I'm supposed to be and it's not easy either. 1★, May 30, 2023
  • However, one problem for the realistibility, sometimes hobos stayed in people's houses, so if you made it be a popup event, that would be great! 4★, Mar 19, 2023
  • You don't need a GED to get a job, you don't need a phone to have a job, you don't need a laptop to apply. 1★, Jan 16, 2023
  • Doesn't even make sense and why does it cost $900 to get a job when in real life I didn't even need a GED Or transportation to get a job the game isn't even fun it's unnecessary hard. 2★, Dec 5, 2022

★★★★★ fun game still wish there were tutorials or something lol
★★★★★ I saw all the negative reviews… the ones that said you couldn't succeed without paying actual money. The thing is… you can. It is possible to earn enough to get a minimum wage job and work your way up from there.…
★★★★★ Been playing this game for years and I've played multiple times very fun and difficult every time!

6 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.

★★★★★ was already cruising as a Medical Admin ($70/hr) with a few duplexs when I encountered a strange glitch that made my salary around 13,000/hr idk if this was programmed in the game, i highly doubt it but basically was…
★★★★★ however, whenever i resch a certain age, the job board glitches to where it only says fast food worker, even if i have a masters degree.
★★★★★ Whenever I try to find a job that's higher than my hourly pay, all I see is the same three jobs over and over, the 9.25 hourly pay as a food fast worker.
Accurate, great results6%

5 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.

★★★★★ I lost all my money investing in crypto 😭
★★★★★ It's so realistic, just like the depression!
★★★★★ I learned that if I slowly scroll I can manage the majors and select the one I want, but this is more of a quality of like improvement.
Easy to use2%

2 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.

★★★★★ I never felt like I was racing against the clock, once I realized you can just buy investments at ~$10 and they only go up from there, and real estate is easy to rent out, it was easy to get the $200 million net worth…

The game i beyond easy but is underdeveloped for longevity

I started with hobo capitalist and after many attempts I figured out how to win I played made a bag until I died stopped playing because it had limited growth now this game is a slight upgrade however it is limited so I’ll be following suit super easy to get your GED and thrive ppl in the comments saying it’s hard are just bad with money lol and that’s ok not everyone has the ability to use their brain to succeed we see that in the real world tbh I play the game like it’s my real life and it’s honestly a piece of cake tbh it was a little easier to get a GED than hobo capitalist but when u figure out a strategy u can’t lose anyway I would like more development bcuz I grow bored of just making money and clicking buttons ALSO I’m a woman why do u tell me to propose and my partner will be stay at home that’s literally my part!? Super weird but anyway it needs upgrading let us have more sim like intersections like allowing us to see our house and cars and properties talking to coworkers and buyers etc this game has ALOT of potential to replace the sims all together just needs smarter and more dedicated developers can’t wait to see what this game becomes in the future toodles

★★★★★Oct 2, 2025
Fan since Hobo Capitalist

This is such a great sequel to the original. I love the mechanics and added depth to this like the different real estate and college majors. I’m a little sad you’ve given up on this type of game and have instead made several variations of the exact same game but career specific. Those games are fine, but there’s not much variety within those games. Are you ever going to add equity? It’s said coming soon for years now. 😢
