Game Classification

G-Player is an online managerial simulation where the player runs a business. At the start of the game the player chooses one of about 100 industries where he wants to work. Then he starts his business with his starting capital and produces his goods. Like in reality he has to buy his resources from other players and in turn sell his merchandise.

But that's not so easy as it sounds. Because the game wants to be a realistic simulation of the business world the player has to care for quality, security, environmental protection, employee satisfaction or stock tradings. The business relationships with other players don't have to end with trading either; they can found holdings, sell their businesses and acquire other ones. There are also several illegal activities possible, e.g. terrorist attacks, assassinations or price arrangements. Through referendums and petitions the player can undertake political activity.

With the registration every player receives a credits account which gets filled when he achieves big successes. This credits can be used to start a business on another server (every player can start two and has to pay a fee for more). Real money is given to exceptional players as prizes. The game also features an offline mode where the buyer can play eight single player missions. These basically serve as a tutorial. [source:mobygames]
