Stock

Stock-simulator is a stock-trading simulator and a game. At some point in the future, it could be a full-featured server that can be used in the real world. Currently, it is far from that objective and strives to be a game, where players can connect and quote, buy, and sell. There is a Game of Life simulator too, to influence changes in the market.
