The Stonks Market

The Stonks Market

A charming meme game that manages to capture my experience in the stock market frighteningly well. The writing from Vagabond Dog is what you expect, funny and well paced. It’s a relatively short playthrough, but it’s worth to go through a second time if you lost it all when you yolo’d in $JANC the first time. 10/10 would hold again.

A short, but comical story about a clueless man flirting with the stock market for the first time.

The trading platform sections are enjoyable and are critical to directing the narrative one way or the other. Are you going to lose more than just your money, or will you triumph and end on a high? The story being tied to my trading performance made me care about doing well to potentially get a good conclusion.

I’m about to go through it again and see how my story differs if I YOLO it all!

Oh, hey. This is Giri. I run some shops in The Shade.

Welcome to GNOMONIC, the role-playing game where your role is just to play the game. You’ve gotta help your funny little friend out because they really wanna leave this place. They’re the only one that can sense your inputs though, so it’s not like you can really do things any other way. As a player, you can save the game, load it, help new folks - and I guess you could hurt them too. Think you can save your new friend and help some of us out on the way? I hope so. Let’s meet on good terms, ok?

Things you can do:

  • Move your friend around a battlefield to attack and defend against enemies in real time.

  • Negotiate with enemies to end battles without violence.

  • Solve probably too many puzzles based around lights and shadows outside of battles.

  • Experience a character-filled story with a lot of humor.

  • Enjoy traditionally drawn watercolor art combined with pixel art character sprites.

  • Listen to music that combines retro and modern sounds.

  • Become friends with most of the bosses.

  • …Are you really friends with them though, or are you just being nice to get something from them?

  • Bask in my presence every time you see me.

  • Really, just try to be nice, even if it’s just for yourself.

  • I have shops everywhere, there’s no way to not see me.

  • You’re way more powerful than all of us here, so maybe help us however you can?

  • But, I mean, who are you to take orders from a description?

Okay, this was amazing LMAO

I’m a big fan of stupid humor and there were a few jokes I’ve heard before, but even one or two new ones is well worth the low pricetag. I’ve already sent a few of these jokes to my sister and best friend and they were dying. lol

And there’s like, hundreds of jokes here. Really can’t complain at all, thoroughly satisfied with this one! :)

Woops forgot to put my word in my review, haha.

The word it gave me was Ridiculous.

I love it!

A nice silly little game of choices where every turn there is potential death. No matter what happens you won’t be leaving completely intact. The art-style is interesting and everything meshes well together. Its short but worth the time to play.

“Nancester, we’re doing a review on your game. Would you like to say a few words about it?”

“No.”

“Come on, Nancester. Tell people why they should play Negative Nancy. Is it for my dashing good looks?”

“No.”

“My charming wit?”

“No.”

“My heroic deeds?”

“No.”

“My spiffy hairdo?”

“No.”

“Nancester, come on. Don’t be such a grump. Should they at least play it?”

“…”

“I’ll take that as not a no!”

There are no words. They should have sent a poet. From the one nearly impossible boss fight, to the absolutely impossible car driving section, this was a real thrill ride from start to finish. The 20 minutes of actual gameplay are positively bristling with thrills and chills. Fun for the whole family.

This is a well written story that does a great job of not taking itself too seriously and not wearing out its welcome. That’s are in these days – where writers will often beat a little too hard on one theme. And don’t get me wrong, there are some serious topics and issues discussed in this game, but the way they are presented via aliens bringing their grievances to a space judge ends up being pretty hilarious. There’s a lot that can be explored with comedy, and this game does a great job of it. Definitely recommend. A full play through won’t take much more than an hour but I’ve been happy to try it a few times just to see what dialogue options I missed.

Well… that was a nice episode of… oh wait.

It’s a game… I almost forgot. It just feels like a 90s sitcom! And that’s awesome!

It’s a short game, you can finish it probably in less than an hour. Or you take your time, enjoy the humor, plan a re-play or two and try out different decisions.

It entertained me REALLY well! Totally worth buying it.

Would be great to see more games like this, or DLC, or an update, a sequel.

In short: I love it!

  • A LITTLE SAD!!!

  • BITTERSWEET, SWEET, AND CRUEL ENDINGS POSSIBLE!!!

  • Almost every item has a readable description!

  • Music is very very repetitive but not long enough to be catchy

  • Actual areas of exploration are 7 very small maps total

  • :( sad

A wonderful relaxing game, I honestly did not imagine enjoying this as much as I did, prob the most relaxed game I have played in a while.

Trust me you should try this game, hands down, not to mention it can be completed in around 30 mins, but those 30 mins are great.

Based loosely on the story of the Canterville Ghost the game features 7 different endings depending on your choices of both dialogue and interactions, some of which is so fun to read it will make you laugh. Everything you do or say will affect your happiness and hostility in the game.
