Gameplay

The game is a fast-paced arcade game and includes power-ups, different types of stocks, and score (money) earning. The player will fail if the stack of incoming stock papers reach the top of the screen. The player will get a screen that says "Your FIRED!" and how many stock papers they got correct in a row, then the stock trader jumps through the window. When the camera pans down, it shows the trader dead (from leaping through the window), a line of people, and how much money the player earned.

Power-ups

The game includes 5 power-ups that do different things. The first available power up is the "Vitamin", which slows down time for a specific number of seconds. The other power-ups do various things, like auto-sort an amount of stock, give a money multiplier, or change top stocks to special ones. To get the power-ups, the player spends money in the "Black Market".

Awards

The game has won a silver award from Pocket Gamer, and the Audience Choice Award from the Swiss Game Developers Association (SDGA) at the 2014 awards.[1]
