Gm and welcome to The WASD Weekly!

🕹️ **Game Spotlight: Land Labor Capital (LLC)**
------------------------------------------------

![A look at the world of LLC.](https://storage.googleapis.com/papyrus_images/42cf621671ab590899db62d89474b51aff73a8c4cb8ae6c39c84e14cfe1e307a.png)

A look at the world of LLC.

### **Game Overview:**

[Land Labor Capital (LLC)](https://twitter.com/LLCgame_) is a business simulation game in the vein of titles like Zoo Tycoon and Roller Coaster Tycoon.

In LLC, your objective is to build a business empire by extracting resources that you can use to build industrial plants, develop real estate, and operate retail establishments.

This can be done while contending with the dynamics of LLC’s NPC inhabitants, whose labor demands and spending habits change based on the events that occur in the game.

Players can also tap into the financial markets to achieve their goals by issuing stock, trading resources, and (of course) speculating.

LLC is currently in pre-alpha on Arbitrum Nova, opBNB, Loot Chain, and Base.

### **The WASD Take:**

I’ve only gotten to scratch the game's surface, but LLC looks like it could be a lot of fun, especially as a business nerd who enjoys these types of simulation games.

There seems to be a ton of depth to game’s mechanics, from resource production, to construction to all the degeneracy that can take place in the in-game markets.

I think there is a lot to sink your teeth into here.

With that said, I do feel that the game is not yet a finished product. I’ve encountered UI bugs (such as issues with connecting my wallet), and I also think LLC could benefit from a tutorial given its complexity.

I also am unsure how I feel about the idea of having players initial allocation of LLC tokens (The in-game currency) tied to the amount of crypto they deposit into the game (Which is how initial tokens are issued).

I feel this could introduce some pay-to-win dynamics, with whales able to get a leg up by being able to make large initial deposits.

All in all, while it’s a bit rough around the edges, I do think LLC has a lot of potential.

I’ll be spending a lot more time playing it over the weekend and hope to share some more of my thoughts on it with you all down the road :)
