I like these types of stories where you lead and manage stuff I want a circus version of this

I had no plans to buy the full game, but I got so into the story that I bought it straight away when I ran out of free chapters. I just finished my first playthrough and I still have a tonne of achievements to get so it definitely has a high potential for replaying. It's 100% text based but it works really well.
