Generally speaking economic strategy games (tycoon, city-builder, business sims) are a bad fit for the roguelike model; the “core” fans of the genre generally towards enjoying complexity and deep simulation and strategy development.
That being said, Against the Storm was able to make an excellent roguelike fantasy city-builder, so perhaps a tycoon game would work too.
It’s very interesting the concept they’ve been able to turn into rogue-like form. I played a calculator rogue-like where you purchased additional buttons to make equations.
I am curious if that would be possible.
