Virtual Playground was a software company producing many tycoon or business simulation games primarily for the PC platform, but their works do also extend to the Nintendo DS.[1] Their works include Prison Tycoon,[2] Homeland Defense,[3] Beer tycoon,[4] Eco Tycoon: Project Green,[5] and Mall Tycoon 2.[6]

Their games are published by Take 2 Interactive, Koch Media, Global Star Software and ValuSoft[7] and are typically based on the Gamebryo Game Engine. Since late 2018, many games published by Virtual Playground were removed from Nintendo eShop.
