STONKS-9800: Stock Market Simulator 0.10.1.2

STONKS-9800 casts the player as a stock market businessman making their way through the world of 1980s and 1990s Japanese finance, navigating company investments, board relationships, and personal decisions — including the possibility of marrying into a wealthy family to secure a permanent seat on a company's Board of Directors. The story unfolds through text-based, choose-your-own-adventure-style narrative choices, with the specific path taken and decisions made throughout a playthrough determining which of the game's multiple endings the player ultimately reaches.

Gameplay centers on buying and selling company shares, collecting dividends, and monitoring how choices and market events — including Shareholders' Meetings and real-time price reactions to trading activity — affect a growing investment portfolio. Beyond core stock trading, players manage real estate holdings, navigate board-related company mechanics, and can engage in side activities like blackjack, all wrapped in a relaxed, retro-styled presentation that favors atmosphere and narrative choice over fast-paced trading simulation.

launch it to begin your career as an 80s Japanese stock market businessman. Buy shares in companies, monitoring price movements and collecting dividends as your portfolio grows. Pay attention to Shareholders' Meeting outcomes, since failed meetings now directly lower a company's share price. Manage your real estate holdings using the sorting and filtering options to find discounted Residential or Commercial listings. Make choices throughout the text-based narrative, since these affect the story's direction and its possible endings. Try side activities like the blackjack table if you want a break from core stock trading mechanics. Keep the game updated through Steam to benefit from ongoing Early Access balance changes and bug fixes.
