Ukrainian indie developer Ternox has announced that STONKS-9800, an arcade simulator of the Japanese stock exchange in the 80s and 90s, is now fully compatible with Steam Deck.

Here's What We Know

The entire interface and text of the game can be easily read on a portable console, and during the game, Steam Deck buttons are displayed. So now you can conquer the pixelated Japanese stock exchange in the subway, at home, at work, or wherever you want.

Flashback

STONKS-9800 is an arcade simulator in the style of a retro-weibo, where we play as a salaryman broker (the Japanese equivalent of a white-collar worker) who trades stocks, conquers the financial market, and in between, relaxes at pachinko machines (Japanese slot machines) and a bar. With the growth of profits in the game, you will be able to afford more expensive cars and apartments, become the owner of a company and move up the career ladder. In general, it is very reminiscent of the film The Wolf of Wall Street, but about Japan. The game is available only on PC (Steam) and Steam Deck.
