In Great Deal for the NES, players step into the world of business and investment, with the goal of becoming the wealthiest tycoon. The game is a unique blend of a board game and an economic simulation.
At the start of the game, each player is given a certain amount of capital. The primary objective is to accumulate wealth through buying and selling stocks and real estate. The main screen typically displays a grid-like map, where players move their token in turns. Each square on the board can represent an opportunity to buy land, construct buildings, or engage in the stock market.
When you own real estate, you can earn money by renting it out or selling it for a higher price. The stock market in Great Deal is also dynamic, with stock prices fluctuating based on random events or the actions of other players. Players need to make strategic decisions about when to buy and sell to maximize their profits.
The game can be played solo against the AI or with friends (if multiplayer is supported). Unexpected events can occur, affecting asset prices or providing sudden opportunities. The ultimate goal is to bankrupt opponents or reach a certain amount of assets before time runs out, depending on the game mode. Great Deal requires calculation, foresight, and a bit of luck to win.
