Open on itch.io

Rezerv: Economy Simulator is a free policy simulation released on itch.io on October 26, 2026. You run a fictional emerging economy on the edge of collapse, with inflation near 30% and thin reserves. Set the policy rate, intervene in the currency market, tax, spend, borrow and reform, and survive the midterm election at month 24 and the general election at month 48.

What kind of game is Rezerv?

Rezerv is a turn-based macroeconomics game, one month per turn. Every month a new crisis lands on your desk and no option is free. Its model is transparent and has no dice rolls, so cause and effect can be traced: sell too many reserves to defend the currency now and the rate snaps back later.

How to play

  1. Pick policies: the interest rate, currency intervention, taxes, spending, borrowing and reforms.
  2. Answer the month's crisis event.
  3. Press Space to advance a month and watch the economy react.
  4. Survive the elections at month 24 and month 48, then keep going into a second term.
