There is a slightly hinted political angle, but it is done in such a way that lets you decide what that angle is. There is a bit more to this game however. A few player decisions along the way can change and influence how the game offers up challenges. There is enough variability for a challenge and different outcomes based on the players decisions, which influence the story, allowing for a few play throughs to keep it interesting. Power Struggle Games have really made an interesting and delightful stock market sim-game. The developers overall did an outstanding job here. The audio responds well to direction and location. There is also a music track which is not too distracting it is dismissable as a kind of ‘elevator’ background music.
THE INVISIBLE HAND SOFTWARE
This game inst really about the interactions as such.īut you will hear great sound effects such as the coffee machine, clock ticking, typing on the keyboard and of course the stock buzzer and broker software alerts. At first, this seems a bit disappointing but it actually fits rather well with the style of game. There is no recorded dialogue for the NPC’s, which in place of this there is a ‘murmur’ or ‘mumbling’ sound as dialogue is presented. Stock history (Right): Shows up to 1 day of data Audio Buy (Long position) or Sell (Short position) any stock. Trade feed (Left): Other brokers weigh in on what they think will happen in the market Stocks (middle): You can select stocks by name, Materials, products they make or the currencies they belong to.

Use the information to ensure you don’t lose your job, or ignore it and let the stock price fall where it falls? The Giest network is always right, but not always available and the player has the choice to follow it, or not.īut it is a dog eat dog world and if you don’t meet your targets, somebody else will and you will be discarded from Ferios before you can say BUY! The game is RIGGED! That is the first reality-shattering encounter, as you find out that the colleague who recommended you, has access to the Giest network, which offers insider trading information to a select few, and guess what – this includes you.
