About Insider Trading
A stock-themed roguelike deckbuilder where the market you create can just as easily crush you.
Insider Trading is a deckbuilder about manipulating the stock market. Each run you play as a trader with a unique strategy and a deck of market-moving cards. Play your hand to move prices, controlling how the market reacts. Greed acts like rocket fuel, accelerating gains and risk. Only you can decide when to cash out and secure your profits.
Your Cards Break the MarketThis is not a trading simulator. It is a deckbuilder built with your choices. Between market days, you enter the Aftermarket to draft cards from different pools, often taking upside alongside risk. Some cards strengthen your deck. Others weaken it. When the market opens, the deck you built is the only thing shaping price movement.
Strange CharactersEach character is a maverick trader with a unique approach to the market. Get to know their quirks as you play. Their starting decks and special mechanics open up new possibilities, encouraging strategies you might not try otherwise.Precision Over PowerCommand the market in each run, creating opportunities and risks as you build towards your weekly financial target. Push too hard and the cost of entry skyrockets. Play it too safe and the market slips away.Key Features:

I can't say I'm much of a fan of the game. It's retro and cool, but it's hard to tell when you're drifting off and not building the right deck. I won once, and it wasn't apparent to me what I did to succeed. There's also just one song in the background the entire time, it kind of gets old fast.2 found this helpful
Is it an interesting game? I suppose so. Does it stay interesting? Sadly no. There is a lot of stuff in here, but the nature of the game does not really encourage you to interact with it deeply. The power disparity between the cards is so extreme that many of them are just not worthwhile to pick up, nevermind keep them. So the experience of the game is that you find one or two cards that are exceptionally strong, and using them your deck becomes strong enough to coast through a week or two with no issue. With that time it is very likely that you can find something strong enough to lower the stock price down to the minimum possible, and then you have essentially won the game. My last run ended when I clicked trade one day then went to take a ♥♥♥♥, when I came back the turn was still running and I closed the game.
Buggy mess. Will ruin a run.
Great deck builder
Money. You pay small amount of real life money to buy the game, then get the satisfaction of working as a stocktrader. Money. The trades you make become bigger with your target of money to reach. Number go up. (To be clear, it's not stimulation overdose type game, it's more about figuring out all mechanics and enjoying the feel of having a good run based on your OWN understanding of the game.) Money. Money. Money. Money. Money. Money. Money. Money. Money. Money. Money. Money. (There is strategy and the music is catchy) Overall: 8.3/10
fun, complex, difficult roguelite with similar feel to balatro, but different enough to be entertaining
