What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Old Money is already a complete, playable business & life simulation – but we're convinced that player feedback will make it even better. During Early Access we want to refine the balancing together with the community, prioritise new content, and steer the game toward what's the most fun.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We plan roughly 6 to 12 months of Early Access. The exact timeframe depends on the scope of the improvements and on community feedback.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“We want to expand the full version with additional content and polish: more events and scenarios, further languages, deeper systems (e.g. companies and politics), and balancing improvements based on player feedback. Specific content may change over the course of development.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current version is fully playable: a complete life from your first job to a generational legacy – with career, stock market, crypto, banking, real estate, companies, politics, family, health, rival moguls and achievements. Available in six languages (German, English, Spanish, French, Brazilian Portuguese and Polish).”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We plan to raise the price moderately when the full version launches. Players who support the game during Early Access secure the lower price.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We actively listen to feedback through the Steam discussion forums and the Community Hub. Suggestions, bug reports and balancing ideas feed directly into ongoing development.”

About This Game

A fortune is built in one lifetime. A dynasty across generations.

Old Money is an elegant economic life sim: you start at 18 with almost empty pockets – and decide, month by month, how a first paycheck becomes an empire. And how much of it your heirs will carry on.

💼 Build your empire – across every asset class

  • Run companies: staff, marketing, quality, five pricing strategies, research, holding supply chains and IPOs. Every company holds a real market share that competitors attack month after month.
  • Stocks & crypto: realistic prices, dividends, percentage trading – and yes: stocks and coins can crash completely.
  • Real estate: buy, renovate, upgrade, develop plots – with tenants who have profiles of their own.
  • Politics: build social influence and climb the ladder – from city council all the way to the top.
  • Underworld: fast money in the shadows. But the heat rises – get caught and you lose part of your wealth and spend up to 24 months in jail.

🏆 Fight for the top spot

Rival moguls are not set dressing: they snatch acquisition targets from under you and drive prices up in bidding wars. In return, you can launch hostile takeovers of smaller rivals and swallow their empires. The national rich list is a real race.

👑 Family, inheritance, dynasty

Your partner has a career and wealth of their own. Your children are born with traits and talents and can later join the family business. You retire at 65; by 80 at the latest, your life ends – then the next generation inherits money, real estate and luxury goods, and you play on as your child. In the end, the dynasty grade (F to S) sums up your life's work in a single mark.

🎲 Every decision carries weight

Economic cycles, progressive taxes and inflation. Events with real choices instead of pure randomness. Insurance, health, your credit rating at the bank – and the yearly OLD MONEY GAZETTE, whose outlook genuinely moves next year's market.

♾️ Built to keep you playing

  • Permanent meta progression: achievements unlock starting bonuses and new scenarios – across all save games
  • Prestige mode: start the endless dynasty in a harsher world
  • 4 starting scenarios, 3 difficulty levels, 3 save slots, rare once-in-a-century opportunities

Fully localized in English, German, Spanish, French, Brazilian Portuguese and Polish.

Early Access: the game is fully playable. During Early Access we refine balancing and content together with the community – the price will increase at the full 1.0 release.
