MARGIN: Raj Minerals

Your ticket to big business has been through a cow

India, 2000
Nandu finds a golden ticket in a cow pat and wins ownership of Raj Minerals
The company is yours, and so is the job of keeping it running

MARGIN: Raj Minerals is a single-player mining business sim with absurd comedy and a flat paper-cut cartoon world
Buy access to deposits, build production and set the price of your ore while the people around you turn an ordinary working day into a very strange storyA full warehouse does not pay the wages

Watch market prices and choose the price and quantity of each lot
Sell now to cover the bills, or keep your stock for a better deal
Storage is limited and payroll will not wait for your perfect tradeBuild the company, then leave your chair

Hire workers and improve extraction, processing and loading, balancing new equipment against licences and running costs
Handle the accounts on the office computer, walk around the grounds, visit the canteen and travel to remote work sites
Production has faces, and those faces sometimes want a word with the bossEveryone has a perfectly reasonable problem

Meet workers, drivers, officials and unexpected visitors, choose your answers and deal with the consequences in later conversations
There is tea to make, paperwork to untangle and always someone with an urgent request
Hands-on tasks and minigames interrupt the spreadsheets, while the road home leaves room for stranger thingsAn absurd company with real bills

A story about an accidental owner trying to make money in a business that refuses to behave
Flat cartoon characters, crude humour and strong language sit alongside production lines, trading and the everyday cost of staying open
