Reception
The game received "unfavorable" reviews according to the review aggregation website Metacritic. However, Next Generation said, "Industry Giant is presented well, with polished graphics and an upbeat soundtrack. It may not have mass market appeal, but it is a solid enough game to keep sim fans salivating for a long time." The game was a commercial blockbuster, with sales above 800,000 units in Germany.
