Description

--- **Raccoon Tycoon** is an economic strategy game set in booming Astoria, where tycoons produce commodities, build infrastructure, and compete for dominance via markets, auctions, and investments. Key mechanics include: - *Commodity production* Players produce key goods—wheat, wood, iron, coal, manufactured goods, luxuries—in an ever-changing marketplace to maximize value. - *Market cornering* Secure high-value commodities to generate fortunes for investments. - *Town building* Invest commodities directly to develop towns. - *Selling for profits* Trade commodities at optimal prices for cash to fund auctions and purchases. - *Railroad auctions* Use profits to bid on railroads, essential for victory. - *Building acquisitions* Purchase powerful buildings granting production power-ups or bonuses. - *Victory condition* Accumulate the best combination of towns and railroads to become Astoria's top tycoon. Raccoon Tycoon immerses players as business tycoons in the Gilded Age of Astoria, a land exploding with new towns, factories, and railroads amid surging productivity. Starting as producers of vital commodities—wheat for sustenance, wood and iron for construction, coal for power, and manufactured goods plus luxuries for demand—players navigate a dynamic marketplace to produce the most lucrative goods. Cornering markets yields fortunes reinvested into burgeoning businesses, enabling town construction via direct commodity use, lucrative sales for cash profits, aggressive bidding in railroad auctions, and acquisition of bonus-granting buildings that enhance production capabilities. Victory crowns the tycoon amassing superior towns and railroads, establishing unchallenged supremacy in Astoria's competitive economic landscape. ---
