Build the most famous movie studio in Hollywood history - from the film reels of 1960 to the streaming wars and VR premieres of 2030.

Free to try: the level 1 studio is available in full, at no cost and without any restrictions (the first 15 years of the game). After that, one single purchase unlocks the entire game forever. No ads. No subscriptions. No pay-to-win.

Movie Tycoon is a movie studio simulation in the spirit of the classic tycoon games. Start in the golden age of 1960: write scripts, cast the right actors, focus production where it counts - and turn every premiere into box office gold.

MAKE MOVIES, YOUR WAY
Every film is a creative puzzle. Choose genre, theme and audience, assemble a three-act script from story cards, then balance production between acting, sets, stunts, atmosphere, sound and special effects. The best combinations are hidden - analyze your releases to discover what really works.

CAST THE STARS OF EVERY ERA
Actors have careers of their own: they rise, peak, fade and retire across the decades. Sign a rising star early, ride their fame to the top of the box office, and know when to move on. Cast them well and they will grow with your studio, film after film.

SURVIVE 70 YEARS OF CINEMA HISTORY
Play from 1960 to 2030 through five eras of film. Hand-built sets give way to CGI and motion capture, TV reruns and VHS give way to streaming, local premieres become global blockbuster launches. Research the technology of each era to stay ahead of the industry.

RUN THE WHOLE STUDIO
Hire and train your dream crew, from cinematographer to special effects artist. Run marketing campaigns to build hype, master each era's distribution, navigate fan events and risky offers - and when a film becomes a hit, greenlight the sequel and dominate Hollywood.

WIN THE GOLDEN CAT
The annual film awards crown the year's best movies in seven categories. Earn nominations, collect statuettes and cement the legend of your film empire.
