Global investors bankroll six modern superpowers, steering their wars and economies to become the richest power-broker by game’s end.

Gameplay

You buy bonds to fund nations, take control of their governments, then move armies and fleets, build factories, and tax territories to grow your cash and influence. The tension is timing: profit from a country’s rise without getting stuck holding the bag when rivals buy it out and steer it into ruin.
