## What is Kingdom?

Business is a game. Can you win it?

Start a tech company in your garage with $5,000 and a big idea. Hire your first people, ship your first product, and make one big call every month. Grow from a one-desk startup to a 250-person corporation, and take your company all the way to an IPO.

PICK YOUR CEO
Four founders, four ways to win. Rocky was laid off from his big-tech job. Jasper couldn't land one. Quinn walked away from agency life. Nibbles quit when her company was bought by cutthroat new owners. Each brings different skills and a strength that shapes the whole run.

RUN THE OFFICE
Hire from a fresh pool of candidates and seat them at Product, Marketing, Sales, Accounting, Support and HR. Watch morale, spot the troublemakers, and move from Mom's garage to a campus of your own.

A DECISION EVERY MONTH
More than 100 decision cards: an angry review, a stolen laptop, a rival poaching your best engineer, a recession, a company retreat. Every choice has a price, and a real business lesson behind it.

SHIP PRODUCTS, EARN AN S
Build apps, games, gadgets, streaming services, fintech, drones, consoles and AI, with 14 product types and 125 ideas. Quality, critics and the market's reaction set each product's grade from D to S, and the grade sets what you can charge. Some launches take off. Some flop.

GROW THE COMPANY
Run ads, social, influencers, PR, trade shows and TV. Raise money from angels and VCs, answer to a board, sign partners, buy rivals, and ride out a recession.

CLOSE THE YEAR
Review every person on the team, hand out raises and promotions, and get a report card on the year.

READ THE NUMBERS
A plain profit and loss statement, a balance sheet and your cash runway, so you always know where the money went.
