Release date: TBA Publisher: Melbourne House CONGLOMERATE is a compelling game of share trading and company takeovers designed for 2 to 6 players. CONGLOMERATE is being specifically developed for use over the Internet with the inclusion of a Net Chat facility so that players from around the world can communicate throughout all stages of the game. CONGLOMERATE could be most likened to Monopoly except that it is based around the stock exchange and the gameplay is far more engaging. One of the beauties of CONGLOMERATE is that you don't need to have any knowledge of the stock market to be able to jump in and enjoy the game. The ultimate goal of CONGLOMERATE is to increase your own stock holdings and capital gain whilst attempting to decrease that of your competitors / fellow stockholders. In your quest to succeed, you will have to deal with strong competition, corporate raiders, bull and bear markets, insider trading, taxation and the fluctuating values of their stock. The winner is the investor with the greatest wealth accumulation at the end.
