What it does
You're a founder who just landed in San Francisco: $40,000, an air mattress, and 26 weeks to close a $2M seed round. Meetings are the combat. 15 investor types, each with its own encounter - the AI Doomer Fund asks your p(doom) before your name, the Family Office won't invest on a first meeting, and an anonymous frog with $8M sends voice notes at 3am. Roll d20 against Charisma, Tech, Hustle and Vision. Six endings. Free, no signup, one HTML file.
Close a $2M seed round in 26 weeks. Roll a d20, pitch VCs, survive the crypto fund, slay the Tier-1 Dragon. Free, no signup — play in your browser.
