The Economy™


The Economy™ runs smoothly only when there's enough money in circulation. How much is enough? How long is a piece of string!

Your challenge is to keep the amount of money in circulation optimal. This isn't as easy as you might think! The Economy™ is designed to leak like a sieve! Not only that, but ever increasing amounts of money gravitate towards the rich. But hey, it wouldn't be any fun if it were easy, right?

Your only way of getting more money into The Economy™—while it leaks like an incontinent—is to lend, lend, lend! That's right, you have to find growing numbers of people ready, willing and able to borrow your funny money, or the game comes to a riotous halt.

One last thing... You have very little control over how quickly money passing through the banks makes it into the economy. Casinos are so much fun, and thanks to modern technology, never further than a mouse-click away. Banks are businesses after all, right?

Good luck!

The Economy™. For sociopaths of all ages.

I love it! Where can I get it? How do you play? ;-)

"I love it!"

Love, like greed, is good. Love is greed. Greed is love. Ipso facto you are a sociopath. Therefore you've got what it takes to play this game. Go get 'em, tiger!

Toby my dice won't stop rolling. What the heck kind of game is this??

The Game purposefully conceals its knowledge (and love) of the wisdom that rolling dice gather no moss. They gather compound interest. It also conceals the exit clause; death. Enjoy it while it lasts, LOSER!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!
