GAME INFO

DESCRIPTION

CEO SIMULATOR (1986) is a darkly honest text-based game about running a startup. You make quarterly decisions as CEO of a Consumer App, B2B SaaS, or Marketplace company. Every choice has consequences - cut costs and morale tanks, chase growth and burn cash, please the board and lose your team.

The game features 13 possible endings ranging from IPO to getting fired by the board, burning out, or watching your company become a zombie. Your "biggest sin" - the narrative debt you accumulated - is displayed on your share card.

A new daily challenge drops at midnight UTC. Everyone faces the same decisions. Share your results Wordle-style with emoji patterns showing your quarter-by-quarter survival.
