What players say

Players describe a short, randomized stock trading game with horror themes but no jumpscares. The punishing fail condition often triggers before the stated 6am deadline, splitting players on whether the difficulty is fair. The experience relies on reading news articles, though many find the news repetitive and the AI-generated art off-putting.
