Food Truck Tycoon (Xbox One, 2022)

Food Truck Tycoon
Developed/Published by Baltoro Games
Released for Xbox One (8/31/2022)
Also on Switch
 

Intro
Food Truck Tycoon was originally released for the Nintendo Switch back in February 2019, so it was a tad strange seeing it receive an Xbox One port several years down the road in late August 2022. Developed and published by Poland-based Baltoro Games, let's dive right into this piece of digital software titled Food Truck Tycoon and see what it's all about...
 
Presentation/Graphics
Food Truck Tycoon features menus that function well-enough, though it's not the most attractive layout you'll lay eyes on, with several options in the center and some others crammed on the sides. The in-game graphics are composed of simple 2D artwork that, while decently drawn, look like some clip art you'd see in an old workplace PowerPoint presentation. While leaning on the generic side, it's easy to distinguish what everything is so the graphics serve their general purpose well enough. The sound design is about what you'd expect and while you'll hear the same handful of sound effects over and over, none of it is too irritating or grating. The music, like the sound, does a good job of just simply being there and staying in the background. Overall, Food Truck Tycoon has a solid presentation but is quite basic in every way.
