How it feels
A mocking, satirical stock market simulator that feels deliberately cynical and inflammatory.

What players say
Players say Poverty is a Choice is a stock trading sim that insults you and wraps hardcore mechanics in dark humor. The pixel interface is uncomfortable and the in-game stock market can break after a few days. Players are split: some praise its depth and music, but others find it boring and overpriced.
