Re: Business Simulations Wanted, No Install Needed
Hi Juliette,
Agreed on the challenges, indeed I remember a very destressing point in 2008 when I played smugglers 3 for nearly 36 solid hours, since calculating how much prophet transporting 59 units of mars to sirius got me was much better than what was going on in my brain at the time.
First, I'd suggest you talk to Aprone about getting youmart to work, since if you enjoy parkboss and predicting market trends that might be the game for you and there is certainly a plane zip. All suggestions look on www.whitestick.co.uk.
Kapy regnum seems exactly what your looking for, manage a medeivil kingdomkingdom with peasants, farmers, crafters, fishermen and the like, use some resources to produce others and sell on the global market. I confess I found that game a bit too! dry, but if your looking for business sim and detail that might be the one.
I also believe there is a modern day version with the kapy title, but I
'm not sure.
I've also heard of a game called perfect competition which is pure business, though that one I don't know much about and haven't played.
There is the mud federation ii, which starts off with you running around delivering stuff in a spaceship but as you get into the game lets you trade in futures, own a company, and even get up to owning a cartel and having board meatings with stocks. AGain, lots of detail. I don't know if you can play muds, but it's certainly worth looking at if your interested in business.
Those are the pure business games I know, but there are many more games that include heavy business elements.
Core exiles has factory management, sales and resource production, management of workers and miners and all sorts of other things, and a huuuuuge! in game economy. Though there are space missions, ship combat, delivering cargo and the like how much you get into each things depends upon your interest in the game, there are players who never buy any weaponry for their ships, and there are players who never craft.
Torn city has a heavy stockmarket with trading in futures, as well as global economy, though how much that separates out from the main thust of the game doing crimes etc I don't know.
hth.
There may be more, especially in muds like avalon and clok and other realistic games, indeed there may be other browser games (I wouldn't be surpised if popamundo has something economical), but those should get you started.
