Daily game
AI BUBBLE
TYCOON
Wake up. We have a bubble to burst.
One billion dollars goes round in a circle and becomes an investment, a contract, an order and revenue. The valuation grows every lap. It will burst. The score is how much you personally got out first.
Each quarter: play one of three cards, then decide how much of your stake to sell.
What this is
You run a closed AI economy of five companies. The same billion dollars goes round in a circle and becomes an investment, a contract, an order and revenue — and the valuation grows every lap, because every lap gets announced. Nothing physical happens.
Sixteen quarters. One card each, and the choice of when to sell. The bubble bursts; that part is not in question. Your score is how much you personally got out before it did.
Free, no account, nothing installed, about ten minutes. There is a new daily seed every day, and everybody playing that day gets the same one.
The five companies, none of which exist
- VectorForge — Builds the accelerators
- Detropic Research — Very safe, very expensive models
- Nimbus Basin — Racks, and the power bill for them
- Credulous Capital — Believes presentations. Lends against them
- Boring Industries — The dull outside world. The only real money
