Blockbusters Inc. will place you in the director's seat of an upstart movie studio!

Ever dreamed of making your own movies? Build up your own movie studio, scout for the upcoming stars, and produce cutting-edge films and TV shows. Try to stay ahead of your competition throughout the history of cinematography.

In Blockbuster Inc. you will take total control of your very own movie studio. You will be able to construct all the facilities, hire and manage all sorts of employees and stars with the aim to produce the most prolific films and Tv. There are 3 pillars of the gameplay:

An intuitive and deep construction system allows you to plan, build, decorate, clone and expand your studio with ease. Further link your road system, landscape the lot and create a smooth utility system to get the best out of your employees.

Each passing decade affects the gameplay and visuals accordingly, from the way your employees and stars dress, the cars they drive, as well as their physical attributes. Random and historic events will spice things up for your studio.

Not every employee is similar, stars like Actors, Directors and Producers require more attention than your average construction worker. Managing employees is fun, thanks to the randomly generated character traits for each employee. Will your main actor be a diva or a smooth operator?

Control the different phases and parameters for your Films and TV shows, from choosing the sets, outfits, stunts and all sorts of options that tailor your products to your desires.


"We instantly fell in love with both the idea and execution behind Super Sly Fox's debut title, and we decided to support the whole endeavor with our whole hearts. I've had a personal longing for The Movies' spiritual successor, Blockbuster Inc. came out of nowhere and will scratch that 'I wanna make a movie itch," said Ancient Forge Co-Founder Dushan Chaciej.

Key Features:

  • BUILDING your own movie studio: The freedom is all yours to build your own studio from the ground up. Decide where to put the writers' room and what amenities the producers should have when working out their busy schedules.
  • HIRING the best talent: No movie can be a true hit without at least one superstar on the poster! Scout the up-and-coming talent and sign them early to bring in the masses to the theaters.
  • DESIGNING grand thematic sets: A spooky horror flick or a family-friendly comedy? Each of those will require a vastly different set designed by you. Once you're done, make sure to upload your setup to Steam Workshop for others to use and admire.
  • PRODUCING jaw-dropping films: Compromise between the director's and the screenwriter's visions to deliver the final cut to the box office on time.
  • EARNING the big bucks: Break the bank by creating a multi-season TV series, a one-hit-wonder blockbuster movie, or by providing the hottest music videos for the label houses.
  • EXPERIENCING cinema history: Each passing decade affects the gameplay and visuals accordingly, from the way your employees and stars dress, the vehicles they drive, as well as their physical attributes. Random and historical events will spice things up for your studio.
