All things "Tycoon" games. Park building, zoo building, business building simulations. Any games related to management, financial growth and economic strategy.

Stumbled across this, looks cool and like a place to go finding new tycoon games. I recognize a lot of the games thanks to posts from this community.

I thought it was a list of open-source tycoon games. Little disappointed

What makes a list open source?

It is not just a quick text list that you or I could type up right now, but a website thingy with fancy little entries for each game. Any of us could go copy the code for it, spin up our own copy of that site, alter it to our wish for free; and not get pursued in court for it because they have it under a license that says we can do that instead of the usual license about no copying or modification, etc.

At least that is my understanding. Not an open source expert.
