About the Game

1929. The world is on the brink of collapse. You are just getting started. Rising from the chaos of the stock market crash as a financial genius, shape the course of history with your own hands. Buy stocks, manipulate markets, acquire entire countries — and once you become the wealthiest person in the world, no one will be able to stop you.

A Historical Journey Progress through a timeline stretching from 1929 to the modern day. Every era brings its own technologies, crises, and opportunities. From radio stations to oil companies, from crypto mining to mega projects — reinvent your wealth to match the spirit of the age.

Become the True Master of the Markets It's not just about buying and selling — it's about shaping the markets. Compete fiercely against rival speculators, take over corporate empires, and destabilize economies. The ripple effect of your every move will be felt worldwide.

Manipulate Nations Gain a voice in UN assemblies by purchasing countries. Steer the world order to serve your own interests — controlling the right nations can be far more valuable than simply making the right decisions.

Technology Tree Invest in the defining tech of every era. Early adopters reap the greatest rewards — but betting your money on the wrong trend can set you back entirely.

Mega Projects Finance the greatest infrastructure investments in history. The risk is massive, but the payoff is even greater.
