KANDL — A Roguelike Trading Game

Trade. Profit. Prestige. Repeat.

You've just been hired at a ruthless trading firm. Hit the profit quota before time runs out — or get fired. Every run is a new year, every day a new opportunity. How long can you survive?

Features

  • Roguelike runs — beat the quota to keep going with harder targets, fail and spend prestige points to come back stronger
  • 20+ companies across 5 sectors with realistic price movements and breaking news events
  • Market signals (RSI, support/resistance, momentum) to guide your trades — but watch out for Signal Jammer events
  • Daily upgrade picks with 5 rarity tiers, a permanent shop, and sector-specific bonuses
  • FinTok social feed — AI influencers post stock tips, some are geniuses, some are clowns
  • Prestige system — earn points each day and from achievements, unlock permanent bonuses across runs
  • Auto-save, manual export, responsive design, English & French

Tips

  1. Watch the signals — green badges mean buy opportunities
  2. Diversify — don't put all your cash in one stock
  3. Read the news — events affect entire sectors
  4. Pick upgrades wisely — sector shields protect against crashes

A game about reading charts, trusting your gut, and pretending you know what you're doing.

Hello, I personnally envoyed this game . A lot of things are done well such as :

- the way stock moves 

- upgrades during one run with different rarities

- upgrades between different runs

=> this give a true sense of progression

What i personnally struggled :


- To have a clear view on what I hold in percentage of my total assets (only current P&L and prices per shares are shown, i would have loved to see percentage of total assets a position represent) 

- When moving from portfolio view to market view : difficult to see when on the market view which stocks i do not currently hold (i wanted to diversify and complete and it was painfull to come back to previous screen to check what was missing in current portfolio)


I also could not manage to sell a specific number of shares. When i click to "sell" instead of "sell alls", there is indeed a windows that open that in theory allows me to select a dedicated number but for whatever reason i could not manage to delete default value and replace by the one I wanted . not sure if something wrong with my setup but i was in "Ver Num" and had no problem in other windows


The challenges were hard on day 1, run 1, but then too easy after a few specs developped : it seems the goals are scaling lineary while the money is scaling exponentially. 

Maybe the difficult should be increased , at least for example after  5 or 10 days maybe
