## What is Press Start?

It's 1985. You have a garage, a computer, and $40,000 from Rosa, an old arcade owner who believes in you. Make your first game, ship it, and read the reviews. Then turn it into an empire that spans the century.

MAKE HIT GAMES
• Pick a genre and a topic, set your focus, and polish out the bugs
• Ship day: watch the reviews roll in and learn what players want
• Hire designers and programmers, and grow from a garage to a campus

BUILD AN EMPIRE
• Design your own consoles and run the factories and mines behind them
• Open stores in cities around the world, and sell on your own web shop
• Buy magazines, TV channels and streaming networks
• Go public, buy into rivals, and take them over

RACE TO THE STARS
• Satellites, reusable rockets, fusion power and a Space Elevator
• Build wonders: a theme park, an esports league, a Moon Base, a Mars colony
• Four ways to win, and one secret ending

GOOD OR EVIL
• Your reputation sits right next to your cash
• Cure diseases, end world hunger, find a home for every stray cat
• Or build a volcano lair. Evil pays, but it can never win.

YOUR LEGACY
• A suit of your own, from garage exosuit to a jump from the edge of space
• Answer hero calls, duel rival CEOs, and raise heirs to carry it on
• When it's over, the newspaper tells the story of the empire you built
