Virtual Playground
Virtual Playground is a software company producing many tycoon or business simulation games primarily for the PC platform, but their works do also extend to the Nintendo DS. Their works include Prison Tycoon,, Beer tycoon,, and Mall Tycoon 2. Most of their games are programmed in C++.
Their games are published by Take 2 Interactive, Koch Media, Global Star Software and ValuSoft and are typically based on the Gamebryo Game Engine. Since late 2018, many games published by Virtual Playground were removed from Nintendo eShop.
