Firstly I am going to tell you a bit about the game in general, and then I am going to tell you what I think of the game, after playing it for 2 years. Netropolis is an online game where you need no software to run. It's done on the web, and you can access it on any machine. Lol. Netro is a bit of a strategy game, where you buy land, and build properties using a company, which you have created. When you have created a new company you firstly go into a Town, with a limited amount of money (50k) buy properties from other people or wait till there is some free land. As soon as you have some plots you are able to build on them. Begin a Newbie the ... Read the complete review

This appears to be the jewel in the crown of www.lineone.net, as far as the games they offer go. The motto for the game is, 'Business is a game', and unsurprisingly that very game is Netropolis.

However the fun comes witht eh underhand ways that you can also acquire property to gain an income. Even atomic bombs and theft are ok. Then you can chat with your colleagues to seduce or bully them out of money until you become the richest and most powerful in your town, then you go to the next town or city and so on. I love the game and cannot ... Read the complete review

A great Game from Lineone, In this game you create a company and first of all you go into a town, and build proporties and try to make money (not real money) you can blow other people up with destruction bombs *bang* and have such great fun. This game is highly addictive.. Go on give it a try. its free after all Http://Netropolis.lineone.net But it is annoying when you get completely blown up.. To stop this from happening you can create multiple companies to transfer around. Its easy to win a town (get enough cash) but then you move on to cities, and that is very very difficult ...
