To facilitate the sale of games, various video game publishers and console manufacturers have created their own platforms for digital distribution. Currently, the process is dominated by online distribution over broadband Internet. This process has existed since the early 1980s, but it was only with network advancements in bandwidth capabilities in the early 2000s that digital distribution became more prominent as a method of selling games. 'As a budding entrepreneur, you will build factories, construct efficient production lines, move raw materials, produce finished goods, and arrange trade with the world's developing cities, providing them with the resources they need to flourish – for as they grow and prosper, so do you.In the video game industry, digital distribution is the process of delivering video game content as digital information, without the exchange or purchase of new physical media such as ROM cartridges, magnetic storage, optical discs and flash memory cards. ' Rise of Industry is a strategic tycoon game where you build and manage your growing industrial empire in a living, breathing, and procedurally generated world set in the 1930s that is constantly evolving and adapting to your playstyle,' says the game's official description.

Like many other games within this genre, Rise of Industry requires players to build their own 'industrial empire' within an expansive world.

First released back in 2019, Rise of Industry is a strategic management sim that was developed by Dapper Penguin Studios and published by Kasedo Games.
