Feste Feiern: German Festival Tycoon
Q1 2027CasualIndieSimulationStrategyWindowsmacOS
Funfair, Christmas market, festival of lights, Halloween, wine festival, flea market and more: run the festivals of a German town – each with its own stalls, visitors, season and way of making money. Steer the crowds and turn an empty meadow into the best festival in town.
A festival for every season!
Germany loves its festivals – and in Feste Feiern: German Festival Tycoon you get to run them all. In summer the Ferris wheel turns above the funfair, in autumn glasses clink at the wine festival and screams echo across the Halloween grounds, and when darkness falls early in December, the Christmas market fills with the scent of mulled wine. Every festival brings its own stalls and attractions, its own crowd, its own season – and its own way of making money."Feste feiern" is German for "celebrating festivals".
Eight festivals – no two alike
- Funfair (Kirmes) – The classic German fair: Ferris wheel, bumper cars and drop tower, roasted almonds and currywurst. The fun goes on well into the summer evening.
- Christmas market – The German original: snow on the roofs, steaming mugs of Glühwein, warm lights – and visitors bundled up in thick winter coats.
- Festival of lights – A festival made for the night: glowing arches, a giant lotus flower, animal lanterns, a fire island, a light fountain and searchlights sweeping the sky.
- Halloween festival – Fog, pumpkins and bats circling overhead. Here you sell entry tickets instead of rides and stay open late into the night, with a horror maze, a kids' spook corner, a witch's kitchen and a potion bar. Many visitors turn up in costume.
- Wine festival – Mild September evenings under the vine arbours: wine stands, Federweißer (young, still-fermenting new wine), tarte flambée and onion tart, a glass deposit system, seating tents and a live stage. Here it's all about keeping guests around – and many of them come in dirndl and lederhosen.
- Festival of Cultures – Food from around the world, from Arabic and East Asian to Mediterranean, African and Latin American, plus a tea house, crafts, hands-on workshops and a main stage with a full programme.
- Flea market – Here you're the landlord: rent out pitches to private sellers, dealers and antique stalls, and run the coffee, cake and bratwurst yourself. Business starts early in the morning.
- Harbour festival – Summer by the water, with festival grounds along the promenade, on the quay and by the lighthouse.
Every festival has its season
Daylight follows the calendar: at the summer funfair it stays light until after eight, while at the Christmas market dusk falls around half past four. Sunshine, wind, rain and snow change the mood and the number of visitors, puddles reflect the lights when it rains – and as night falls, the lamps come on everywhere and your festival grounds are transformed.Design your festival grounds
- Paint main and side lanes, then place stalls, rides and decorations on a grid – rotatable in four directions.
- Every business has an entrance, a queue and an exit. The game tells you in plain words whether everything is connected properly.
- More than ten rides, including a Ferris wheel, log flume, ghost train, Breakdancer, drop tower, wave swinger and children's carousel.
- Food and game stalls from currywurst & fries, fried fish and roasted almonds to shooting galleries and tombola stalls – plus toilets, first aid and bins.
- Move, rotate, demolish, undo: the editor invites you to experiment.
Living crowds
- Families, couples, groups of friends and school classes roam the grounds together – each with their own budget and needs such as hunger, fun and energy.
- Guests weigh up price, waiting time, distance and mood before they join a queue.
- Queues grow, lanes fill up, tills ring: your income comes from real visits, not from a spreadsheet.
