📖 About This Game
Welcome to the forum, and to this meeting in particular. It is an honor to sit here with those who represent the big capital in the world through your megalomanic investment firms.
Tonight in DAVOS, we are going to play out our activities for the coming 3,5 years. One by one we will be taking over the world's largest corporations in one of the 4 blocs; In America, Europe, China, or the Global South, infiltrate their governments and increase our influence through… other means. To make the world a better place... naturally!
Corporations don't just generate income. You'll need to make sure to pass favorable bills in parliament. You need to invest your assets strategically, balancing between corporations and politics. And balancing between reaching goals directly, or investing for improving your power position in future years.
Do you crave more? Advance your game via the back room and gain control of institutions. Play together in the collaborative variant, or become dissident and follow an anti-agenda, disrupting other players.
