Field notes
Players choose Explorer or Analyst: the former gets plain-language clues in a stated 5–8 minutes, while the latter sees full figures and trade-offs. The interface supports questions, strategy testing, and a board recommendation before revealing the company; afterward, it places the player's ideas beside historical figures. The site says its financial models are simplified where historical information is unavailable, and labels simulated outcomes as hypothetical rather than predictions. It also offers sources and optional ratings or feedback.
