Game Description
Offworld Trading Company, also known as OTC, flips the usual Mars colonization story on its head. Instead of fighting battles with troops, players battle with brains and bank accounts. This real-time economic strategy game throws you into a ruthless Martian market where every decision matters. Sound dry? Well, it’s anything but.
What’s Offworld Trading Company All About?
Forget lasers and tanks—here, your weapons are dollars and deals. You control a trading company on Mars, competing with others to dominate the marketplace. The goal? Extract resources, manage production, and outsmart your rivals without breaking a sweat—or a factory.
Think timing doesn’t matter? Guess again. Prices change in real-time based on supply and demand, so one wrong move can cost you big. Lesson learned: always watch the market closely!
