"Automation is a car company tycoon game in which you design and build cars from scratch.
It is you who designs everything from the very core that is the engine, over the chassis, to the suspension and the car's looks.
Several games have tried this before... but were able to merely scratch the surface.
Just some of the many features of Automation are:
A flexible car designer
A highly detailed engine designer
Realistic dynamic world markets
Realistic buyer demographics
High technical focus, yet easy to learn!
Go ahead, build your dream-car company, or simply aim to dominate the world markets with your superior design skills! "
