Growing something to sell

Enter The Market is a farming and market game for mobile and desktop browsers, inspired by the patterns I worked with in retail reporting. Grow produce, watch changing prices and choose when to sell.

How it plays

Buy seeds, plant crops, water them and manage energy as they grow. Watch the produce market, sell your harvest and reinvest in the farm. Goals and unlocks give you something to work towards as you repeat the loop.
