Alright, folks, let’s dive into how I finally snagged a Hardware Engineer in Game Dev Story. This was a tough one, and it took me a few playthroughs to really figure it out. I’m going to walk you through my whole process, bumps and all.

Initially, I kept hiring and firing, hoping a Hardware Engineer would magically appear. Nope. Didn’t work. Wasted a bunch of in-game cash doing that. I was like, “There’s gotta be a better way!” I started thinking maybe my staff’s stats needed to be higher.

My First Attempts (and Failures)

So, I focused on training my existing crew. I sent them on every training course I could, maxing out those options. I used the training options like going for walks and reading books, everything. Thought process was: higher stats = better chance of a Hardware Engineer showing up, right?

Still nothing. It was frustrating, I gotta admit. I was starting to think this Hardware Engineer was a myth, a legend, something you only hear about in the game’s forums (which, by the way, I totally avoided looking at initially because I wanted to figure this out myself!).

The Turning Point

Then it hit me. I hadn’t really been paying attention to the job titles my staff were acquiring through leveling up. I just assumed they were getting better, you know? I started a fresh game, paid super close attention to the career change options.

  • I hired a bunch of people, anyone, really. Didn’t matter their initial stats.
  • I made them work, develop games, get experience. Anything to get them leveling up.
  • Crucially, I watched what job options popped up when they leveled.

The Solution (Finally!)

Here’s the path I found, and it worked consistently across multiple new games:

  1. Get someone to become a Coder. This is pretty common, so it shouldn’t be too hard.
  2. Train that Coder and keep leveling them up. Eventually, you should get the option to change them into a Hacker.
  3. Take that Hacker, and keep leveling them up! This is where the magic happens.
  4. Finally After leveling up your Hacker, then they can be change into a Hardware Engineer

It’s all about that progression! You can’t just hire a Hardware Engineer directly. You gotta nurture them, guide them through their career path. It’s like raising a Pokémon, but instead of a Charizard, you get a dude who can… well, I guess design a console.

So, that’s my story. Hope this helps anyone else who’s pulling their hair out trying to find this elusive Hardware Engineer. Don’t give up! It’s a process, but a satisfying one when you finally see that “Career Change” option pop up.
