Read the full description
A free browser simulator for anyone thinking about starting a business. You're dealt a random founder (savings, debt, family, city) and run a café, shop or startup for up to 7 years. Every quarter brings a real trade-off: loans, hiring, leases, pivots. Rent, wages, taxes and scams are tuned with public survival statistics. Most runs fail, like in real life. Each ends with a life receipt. Free, no sign-up, 7 languages.
