Reviews
- The game is exactly as advertised: an idle game that allows players to buy or sell stocks at their leisure.
- Some players found it fun for a short period, enjoying the simplicity and the potential for achievements.
- The leaderboards provide a competitive aspect that some players appreciated.
- The game features extremely minimalistic graphics and a lack of depth, making it feel more like a low-effort browser game than a PC title.
- Gameplay is overly simplistic with no real strategy involved, leading to a boring experience for most players.
- Technical issues and poor mechanics, such as random stock behavior and limited transaction history, detract significantly from the overall experience.

The graphics of the game have been criticized for being subpar, with some users stating that even simpler games like Flappy Bird offer better visuals. This lack of quality is particularly disappointing for a PC game, where players expect more impressive and polished graphics.
“Flappy Bird even has better graphics than this.”
“Considering this is being evaluated as a PC game, having the graphics phoned in like this isn't going to result in a high quality, visually impressive game that PC gamers are used to seeing.”

The gameplay is hindered by a simplistic user interface resembling a browser game, along with several mechanical issues such as a limit on outstanding transactions, a session-only transaction history, and confusing trading mechanics.
“For gameplay purposes, the user interface for this game is mostly just 2D static images, making it feel more like a browser game.”
“There are several issues with the mechanics of the game: you can only have a total of 8 outstanding transactions, the history tab only shows transactions from your current session, and perhaps worst of all, the trading system is confusing and illogical.”

Players find the game primarily suitable for grinding achievements, but it requires patience and may only provide short bursts of entertainment before boredom sets in.
“This game is only good for grinding out achievements if you're patient, or if you really want to just mess around and have a couple of bucks to spare for 15 minutes of fun before you get bored.”
