4.4 out of 5, based on 740 reviews.
What people like
- Very fun and addictive
- Great movie making simulation
- Good potential for updates
What they complain about
- Ads interrupt you constantly
- Progress disappears or gets corrupted
- Game is way too easy
I am Australian
This is the best mobile game I’ve ever played mate
Only Update in 1 Year Added Constant Ads…
Game was great. Needed more content though. Latest update only added constant advertisements every time you simulate a week. This has made the game all but unplayable in my mind. Instantly uninstalled. Shame.
Awards
With the most recent update nobody wins the Popcorn Cinema Award. FYI, I’ve been playing this game for about 2 years now, and this wouldn’t happen before.
Can you please dissable auto save!!!
It’s ruining the game experience
So sad :(
this was genuinely one of the best games i have every played! Unfortunately the developer abandoned updates on the 2nd version. :(
Come on man, don’t abandon your consumer base!
Man we all love this game, would love to see you put some time and energy back into this, or fix Box Office Sim 2. This game could be ever better. Don’t abandon your consumer base!
No goal
There is no goal what so ever no upgrades to buy no studios u just keep doing the same thing messing about with titles while the income SLOWLY rises even tho you have nothing to spend it on other then a another film that cost the same as the last money is completely redundant
I like this game.
I like this game a lot hopefully they will update it with a type category. For Animation or Live Action As well as animation style 2d and 3D.
Some Problems.
Great game, but some many ads!
This is great
I want to be an actor I guess this can help but still great game
Lost it all
Lost all my progress because the game kept asking me to return to main menu and just as I was getting into a rhythm it came up and I clicked it by accident. Fuming.
Improvements
I love this game! Playing it everyday and enjoying it! If I had a couple suggestions maybe be able to add up to 10 people in the cast? And maybe even have the option to sign a actor for multiple movies?
Fun, but a little thing
In the Box Office Sim 2 the movies are not always nominated for Best Supporting Actor/Actress but in this game when it flops it’s only nominated for 4 Best Supporting Actors. Pls fix
PLZ UPDATE
This is the game you should be putting all of your attention and focus into!!! Boxofficesim 2 features with this game base model would be immaculate.
It Was Really Good... Until
I was really enjoying the game. And then my progress disappeared, all of it.
Very fun
it’s honestly my favorite mobile game atm
Care about the consumers
When will it be another update
Amazing, addicting game
I got this app yesterday and then played it for 7 and a half hours straight. It was really fun, but I would love for some of these 4 things to be added. 1. Being able to watch the movie you made 2. Being able to hire multiple writers or directors for a movie 3. Being able to make tv shows 4. Being able to buy other companies not just there franchises
Nah
Confusing!!!
Suggestions and Some game ideas
I love this game the first time I’d seen it is when my brother played it, anyways I would really hope that one day you make editors to have your movie have special effects and more popularly. Also please make a game to make a video game add an artist, programmer, etc just like box office
Really fun! But…
This game was an excellent time waster and I loved it a lot, until the dev stopped updating it and it fell completely apart, some bugs restart progress from your last manual save and some saves get corrupted, and without more updates, it’s not as fun with the same old features
Create a Tv show sim version of this
Plz create a Tv Show sim version of box office sim.
Great but please update late game
This game is awesome its already great but after so long it gets to easy if there was anyway u could add late Game features or implement some of the other reviews ideas it’s a definite 5 star game
Bought Beanie at Cannes. Made a Billion
Look, admittedly, this is a fun little game to help live out your movie producer fantasies. It’s just complex enough to feel authentic. HOWEVER. It’s pretty poorly balanced and way too easy to get on top. By the end of my second year I had multiple films that had grossed over a billion dollars and had eclipsed Disney as the highest most profitable film company of all time… I shouldn’t be able to do that. I went to Cannes, bought an R-rated 3 hour adventure film and when I released it 2 weeks later to the public it became the highest grossing R-rated movie of all time. It was just way too easy.
A suggestion!
I love this game and get stuck playing it often. One small suggestion would be to show which actors, directors, and writers are retiring. Maybe sometime during award season?
I like it but I’d like to see more.
It’s a really fun game I’ve been playing the past few days but like I seen another suggestion say there should be “Multi-Film” contracts so it’s easier to do multiple movies with actors
Almost Great!
So I’ve been playing this game for about a week now, it’s a lot of fun seeing your franchises grow and winning awards, but theres a huge problem. The game is WAY too easy, all you have to do is get enough money to buy every marketing option then the money will likely make at least a billion if its high quality and the genre alines with the trends. This means you’ll easily make your money back and after a while of doing this money doesn’t even become a concern, I got nearly 100 billion with ease. Also this means that other studios don’t even compete, when looking at the movies page, all of the movies my studio made up like the first ten pages because my movies were making so much, the only reason why I continue to play is to see if I can beat my max box office.
Make BOS 3 like this!
I love this game, it’s by far the best movie making sim. I don’t play 2 because it’s animals not humans so PLEASE make a 3 with people not animals. I would pay money for a newer version of this game!
Highly Addicting
This game is very addictive, which is really good. A few recommendations though, like add movie editors and stuff, more genre’s, plots, arc’s, genres, more roles, vfx people, a review tab where people can write movie reviews, and music for movies. other than that i really love the game
Olivia Rodrigo
Some 4 year olds or even up to 8 year olds can’t read at all
Amazing!
By far one of mi absolute favorite games
Fun, but update please
Very fun game but I see it hasn’t been updated in 8 months. It’s not like I’m gonna stop using the game but I would like some new or improved content.
Update needed
They don’t really care about this game anymore. Haven’t made an update in months and don’t respond to any of the reviews except one which was talking about bugs that never really happen. Needs contracts where certain actors have a contract with you, for example like 4 movies where they cannot be in any other movie until the contract is done. The game is very fun but also very easy. Maybe make it just a little bit harder.
I Love This but
I Love This but I would LOVEEEE YOU if you made one for tv shows
Questions!!
I just started grinding out the game today and I love it!!! I’m doing so well but every time nominations come up I check to see if I’m nominated and then question if you even can be nominated. So can you be nominated for a movie award? Also I wish you could not have to make your movies a franchise! There’s so much more idea I could give but other than that it’s so fun!
Potential
A lot of potential. Unfortunately I can’t open my saved game. Just says error movies. The possibility of dvd releases and the creation of tv series would be fun.
