Compete to own the UK's major companies. Accumulate wealth, fight inflation, form political parties and even be elected Prime Minister. The game reflects the way Government, finance and Industry interact when private enterprise operates within a system of parliamentary democracy. It is all about winning and losing political and financial power. Each player becomes a tycoon and a politician.
- as a tycoon, buy and sell Companies, products and bonds. Invest in insurance. Face the perils of inflation and commercial disaster and your profits are taxed by the Government.
- as a politician, be elected to Government and maybe appointed Prime Minister. Your decisions will then affect the financial destiny of every player on the board.

Game play options; basic, full basic and advanced. The player with the most wealth, wins.
