Earl Weaver Baseball, along with a later game entitled Baseball Mogul , prefigured what is perhaps the most famous and highly acclaimed sports simulation series, the Madden NFL franchise by Electronic Arts, first released in and now updated on a yearly basis.
These games not only realistically recreate individual football matches, but also offer detailed franchise modes. In this way they partially overlap with another subgenre, business simulators. Business simulation games put the player in the role of a business owner who must keep his company profitable. Lemonade Stand is perhaps the oldest game in the genre; it became popular in part because it came included with Apple computers during the s.
The energy crisis of the s helped to inspire another early example of the business simulator: Windfall: The Oil Crisis Game , which made the player the CEO of an oil company. The genre only truly matured, however, in , when Railroad Tycoon was released by MicroProse. Designed by the legendary Sid Meier, Railroad Tycoon challenged the player to lay railroad tracks, purchase trains, manage schedules, and compete against other, computer-run rail companies.
Like SimCity, it was a critical and commercial success that led to several sequels and many imitators. The business genre exploded during the s, with games as different as Merchant Prince, which took place in late medieval Venice, and Theme Park, which requires the player to build and run an amusement park. Capitalism is particularly notable for its realism, complexity, and wide array of different options. New business sims continue to be made today; more recent offerings include Prison Tycoon and Zoo Empire both The past decade has also seen new business sims in the form of massively multiplayer online games, the most notable of which is probably EVE Online , which features a complex virtual economy driven by the actions of tens of thousands of players, and is notable for its often cut-throat gameplay.
