About this game
Run a TV network by scheduling shows, hiring stars, and selling ad slots in a satirical take on the television industry. The Networks captures the lifecycle of TV shows perfectly: new hits attract viewers but age into reruns, stars boost ratings but demand salaries, and ads generate revenue but limit your programming choices. The humor lands consistently, and the economic decisions have real bite. A mid-weight Euro with genuine laughs.
