What players say: - 4.9 from 27 ratings on itch.io: https://outstar.itch.io/blokia-designer Highlights: - Build phones from stencil parts, then draw the wallpaper and write the ringtone yourself - Quarter-by-quarter tycoon loop: research, rivals, e-mail and sales targets through 2004 - Share any phone with friends via a copyable seed code Keep in mind: - A 72-hour jam game: some players find the sales targets punishing, and there is no save-file feature yet - The campaign runs a fixed number of quarters, so there is no endless mode ## About Blokia Designer You work from a Fenestra 98 desktop, the game's take on a late-90s PC, and each turn is one business quarter. In the designer you build a phone's body out of keys, screens, speakers, panels and antennas, paint its wallpaper one pixel at a time, and tap out a ringtone in a composer in the style of the Nokia 3310's. Then you ship it and read the reviews: teens, business users and seniors each want different things. Between launches you fund research, watch rival makers, answer e-mail and try to hit your boss Bob's sales numbers, aiming to rise from junior to CEO by 2004. Every finished phone gets a seed code you can copy and share so friends can load your design, and the comment thread is full of players showing off theirs. It suits anyone nostalgic for monochrome handsets and custom ringtones, and tycoon fans who like a creative toy inside the management loop. Several commenters found Bob's targets hard to hit, and the campaign runs a fixed span of quarters, so it is a tight challenge rather than an endless sandbox. ## FAQ ### Is Blokia Designer free? Yes.
