Startup Fever

The players are company founders in Silicon Valley and manage money
and employees (engineers, sales, executives) and allocate them to the
right products. Investing in engineers creates better products, who
attract more users, who in turn generate money. Investing in sales
generates more money, which can be used to hire more engineers, but
doesn’t directly improve the products. At the end of every year, the
best products steals users from the other products in a product
showdown.

After an initial phase of frantic hiring, all available people are
hired, and players need to hire employees away from other employers.
Many players consider this poaching the most fun element of the game. The best strategy can fail due to bad luck, or unforeseen events.

To win, a player needs to obtain the largest number of users across all products.
