About this game
Welcome to Crypto Market Rivals
Pull up a chair and try your hand at the market. Start with $100,000 in simulated funds, find a trading style that suits you, and see where your decisions take you. A rough run isn't the end of the story. There's always another approach to try.
Crypto Market Rivals is a single-player trading game with roguelite campaigns and lasting progression. No real money is traded.
Find your way to play
Market Universe: Explore 153 cryptocurrencies and 53 stocks in new sessions. Follow BTC-led swings, sharp coin-specific moves and fictional global headlines that the market may embrace or shrug off.
Solo Lab: Learn the basics, adjust the difficulty, pause when you need a moment, and try a different plan.
Time Machine: Choose from eight historical episodes, including 2023 The Rebuild and 2025 Crosscurrents. Trade forward from your starting point.
Wild Mode: Choose upgrades, meet fictional rivals and work toward the closing bell. Try The Last Shift: a layoff notice, bills on the table, and four simulated sessions to earn a junior trading-desk seat.
Someone to beat
Challenge Mara Voss or Oren Vale in Solo, Time Machine practice or Wild Mode. Choose Sharp, Light or Off for their commentary. These optional rival races are unranked and don't change campaign rewards.
Make the next run yours
Grow your Rival Rank, follow Market Paths, collect cosmetic themes and keep your favourite moments in the Field Journal. Session Review helps you look back at your trades and decide what to try next. Daily challenges and replayable cases offer a starting point when you fancy something different.
Pause offline practice, adjust text size and sound, and play at your own pace. Trade receipts show your actual fill price and fee; optional rival setup stays tucked away until you want it. Local friend result codes let you compare unranked runs.
Your first few minutes
New to the desk? Start with Solo Lab, or try The Last Shift for a short comeback story. Check your trade size and cost in the order panel before placing an order. Use Save now to keep a checkpoint, and Exit game when you're ready to step away.
Before you start
Offline play needs no game account. Saves stay on your computer; back up a valued career before updating. Existing saved runs and Classic challenges keep their original markets.
All trades use simulated funds. Time Machine uses historical price references; other modes use generated prices. This is a game, not financial advice. Balances and rewards have no cash value.
The game is in development. We'd love to hear what you enjoy and what could be clearer.
