How the game works — proposed design
Each player builds a startup using Product, Team and Traction cards. Funding events alter cash and equity; Pivot cards can reposition a struggling business. Valuation uses a printed, transparent formula.
Objective
Finish four funding rounds with the highest net company valuation.
What makes it different
A compact economic system with actual strategic trade-offs among growth, dilution, cash and runway.
Planned format
