Really basic game I've designed, should be self-explanatory. Made using Construct 2, the .capx file is included in the link.

Interesting idea could use some polish of course.

What's the link between interest rates and economic growth?  At one point I saw interest rates of 4% with -3% economic growth which seems a bit implausible.

Interestingly, stocks can have negative value in this game. When that happens, you can get rich off "buying" those stocks.

During the Depression there was such economic growth and interest rates.
It's not a robust economic model, but it gets the job done.

During the depression, Federal Reserve policy was radically different from today.
