NAZKAK is a free open-ended play-by-email game. The game is a simulation
of stock exchange trading and company financial management.

Players invest their capital in companies, buying stocks or founding new
companies, and can take control of other players companies.

The objective of the player is to be The Richest Man in the World, in
the Fortune classement.

Players may enter the game at any time, there is no limit to the number
of game turns.

A game turn is computed every day, orders can be sent to the game server
at any time.

This game is free, and computer moderated.

A cycle of the game is processed every 24 hours. In this game turn,
values of all companies is checked, dividends are distributed, balance
