Incidents

Working on your business is no smooth sailing

Just as in reality you face various hurdles and stepping stones when building a business. We learned that the hard way ourselves so we thought adding the "incidents" to our game makes it far more realistic and more enjoyable (or frustrating at times).

So what are those incidents and how do they manifest in the game?

As you click and stake your way to the top, from time to time a pop up windows shows up and asks you a Yes/No question. Depending on your answer, a certain progress bar will react according if you made the right decision. Some examples:

• Emily told a manager of your company the she would go out with him if he gets a crocodile as an office pet. Now he asks your for that reptile! Do you give in to his demands? Yes/No?

• Viktor pushed a mutual childhood friend to ask you for a job as a lifeguard at a swimming pool. You do not own a swimming pool! Do you hire him anyway? Yes/No?

• Maxwell told the local tax department that you own various laundromats to wash money. Now they want to inspect all your belongings for that machines. Do you comply? Yes/No?

And similar ones like that. The goal is to point towards healthy, odd, entertaining business decisions which are not necessarily about to please everyone. On the flipside, playing by the rules, even if it costs you a lot of time could be benefitial in the long run. If the IRS sees your books are perfectly fine all the time, they won´t harass you that often and so on.

There are plenty of other things that could be troublesome and need for a quick answer, something like:

• Bank increases interest rate on your loan

• Conference hall suddenly stops inviting you (maybe on of our villains evil doing?)

• Township hall, major wants more bribing money

IMPORTANT: What if you miss an incident?

Yes, it´s an idle game after all, so you won´t play it all day long, we kept that in mind, therefore if you miss an incident it will just affect your progress on a certain bar 50% less than a wrong answer. The game continues without you and the incident disappears after 24hours.

Artificial Intelligence implementation

While we could make a huge database of 10.000+ incidents we want to harness the power of AI to come up with good, serious and realistic scenarios. This also guarantees that everybody gets some slightly different questions enhancing the overall experience of the game. Learn more on the next page
