I had some fun with it, but overall it feels kind of messy. The trading itself is easy enough for a dumbass such as myself to understand, and interesting enough to make me want to interact with it (or in other words actually play the game), but obviously it's no simulator. The center point should technically be the narrative but it feels so disjointed that I'm not even sure where to start. Sometimes it feels like a satire (mainly through stereotypical characters present in the game), other times like a critique (which includes some pseudo social commentary that never gets elaborate enough to actually say something interesting). The plot itself is completely non-engaging, even though the game does have original implementations of ways to tell the story (e.g. the incredible opening scene). I just wish there was actually a writer with ideas out there to complement it, because all you really get is Wolf of Wall Street, but with no fun parts and character archetypes you'd see in a movie LIKE Wolf of Wall Street.
Overall the game was an ok addition to a humble choice bundle, but I would be careful about picking it up full-price.
