Quick verdict
Cinema Tycoon Gold is a competent business sim game. You may feel a bit disconnected from the whole process and for a game that revolves around the entertainment industry, thrills are thin on the ground.
What's it about?
You start the game with a one-screen cinema, a little cash and the desire to improve your business!
Different game modes set you different targets. You might have to bank $1m as fast as possible or expand your cinema to a multiplex with eight screens.
Upgrades to the visitor experience include bigger seating, better projectors or sound systems, an improved snack bar and staff training.
Once you earn $10,000, you will be able to adjust ticket prices. There are plenty of milestones like these, unlocking different elements of the business of running your cinema.
Three skill levels can be unlocked to give the game replayability.

Pros and cons
+ Interesting concept for a Tycoon game. Everybody loves movies and this is a fun way of stepping through the STAFF ONLY door to run a cinema yourself.
+ Quite a lot of different options and parameters to play with, like the best Tycoon games, without quite the level of complexity of some of the more sophisticated ones.
- Overly simplistic in some areas. Why not allow price increases in smaller increments than $1?
- Very disconnected experience. You will find yourself, just like in Lemonade Tycoon 2, skipping the day to cut to the bottom line. There's little point in hanging around watching your customers come and go. The actual daytime part is quite dull.
The verdict
Cinema Tycoon Gold is a fine game download if you enjoy Tycoon games but don't want to get thigh-deep in a huge manual. For some, the lack of true micromanagement, depth and an interesting daytime will be a turn-off.
