Have you ever wondered what it would be like to build your own business and become a tycoon? To measure your skills against other players in a virtual economy? Do you want to own a production, retail or research business? Which sector is more remunerative? It all depends on the current conditions of the virtual economy and your ability to spot business opportunities. Sim Companies is an extremely versatile browser game that lets you experiment with various careers and test your skills against other players.
Sim Companies is a strategy and business simulation game that aims to entertain you while teaching you how to run a business, all with real-world economic principles. The object of the game is to create a profitable and competitive business. Each player receives a starting capital and some assets. The daily tasks of the players consist of managing the supply chain from production to retail, finding business partners, securing financing, etc.
To achieve success, players must be able to read market conditions and know how to take a few trading shortcuts here and there, such as buying their resources on the market at a price lower than their own cost of production or selling at the stock exchange trades with a higher profit than in retail trade. When should players invest in research?
We thought about the parameters that make running a business fun or tedious. The philosophy of Sim Companies is to let you make really interesting decisions while you develop your own business, without having to manage hundreds of additional parameters. We don't want to mimic the real world with all its rules and accounting intricacies, but rather we want to give players the freedom to make the decisions that will really influence their place in the market.
Those who play Sim Companies gain knowledge and improve their skills in teamwork, business management, leadership and business development. Learning through active participation is a proven method that guarantees the retention of skills over the long term. The game rewards players with achievement badges. Companies are rewarded for employing workers, building infrastructure, making profits on the stock exchange, and for other activities. This gratification guarantees positive feedback when good decisions are made and provide short-term, healthy and viable goals when you start your business from scratch. This corresponds in a way to the incentives of the public authorities in reality.
Sim Companies take advantage of an advanced business model that simulates the responsiveness of the retail industry to virtual business supply and pricing policy. Players control the quantity and price of the goods they deliver to their outlets. All players' retail settings are combined to simulate the rate at which goods are sold. Players can refrain from retailing for a period of time to temporarily increase demand, allowing them to sell at a better price later. There is no single path to success, and decisions turn out right or wrong based on the current market and retail industry conditions. No strategy is sure to win,
