About Market Tycoon

Market Tycoon puts players in the shoes of a small trader in a bustling African market. Starting with a single table of goods, players buy low, sell high, negotiate deals, expand their stalls, and eventually build a commercial empire.

The simulation features a dynamic economy that responds to real-world factors — supply chain disruptions, seasonal price changes, and local events. Players must master the art of negotiation, manage inventory, hire staff, and outsmart competitors.

With its uniquely African setting and deep economic simulation, Market Tycoon fills a gap in the tycoon/management genre. The game has been praised for its educational value in teaching basic business and entrepreneurial principles.
