Florianopolis, Brazil (PRWEB) April 13, 2006

Corporate raiders and hostile take-overs make the cut in this next generation's business simulation. Industryplayer is an intelligently and cleverly crafted business sim, targeting the casual and serious gamer with wide appeal across both teenage and adult audiences.

A quality package offering exciting features draws players into a realistic and challenging world of corporate warfare. Price wars, fierce battles for market dominance, hostile take-overs, dynamic credit ratings, volatile market trends, crippling interest rates for the careless and predator Corporate Trusts are just some of the hazards in the jungle of business tycoonery, through which IndustryPlayer CEO's must steer their empires. IndustryPlayer successfully presents a unique and masterful combination of entertainment and education, skilfully wrapped in an attractive and addictive scenario. Building an empire has never been more absorbing and treacherous. Liquidations - necessary to advance - must be carefully orchestrated to avoid bankruptcy. Disasters (typhoons, floods or fire) can wipe out profits and militant striking workers may slash production. The kids love it. Their parents love it. Visuals are smooth and sophisticated, pleasing to the eye and execution is extremely user-friendly.

A complimentary Tutorial together with a free introductory level, provide a hassle-free start. Levels of difficulty and depth of content can be drawn upon, commensurate with player competence and maturity levels, with options to advance and utilise business accounting models to edge out competitors. Comprehensive graphs tracking dynamic market trends, margins, profitability, sales, ROI, market share, taxation levels, business credit ratings and much, much more provide a platform from which each Holding's performance can be monitored. Exportable to Excel is a comprehensive accounting spreadsheet generated in real time by in-game activity, recording all actuals, including a Profit & Loss Statement, Cash Flow Statement and Production Expenditure Analysis, etc.

The goal is to build the most successful corporate Holding of 5 companies, manufacturing products to sell to fellow gamers. The imperative is to extract maximum profitability and wealth for the least expenditure within each level and finish with the highest accumulated wealth. There are 10 levels with 120 turns each. Gameplay is infinite, with the option to go back and start again to improve upon the previous cycle's financial performance and record a higher score. There are good incentives too for high achievers and player loyalty.

Parents and teachers claim their students’, their sons’ and their daughters' mathematical analysis and calculus skills have improved dramatically through regular Industryplayer gaming. The program is being further developed to include additional teaching aids, but already is highly suitable as a dynamic and innovative classroom tool, offering broad-based knowledge in commerce, industry, finance, business principals, maths and accounting. IndustryPlayer is clearly a leader in its genre – offering innovative, exciting, value-packed entertainment with sophisticated and intelligent content, slick graphical presentation and a great looking user-friendly interface. Top-drawer value.
