What's more fun than business? Spreadsheets, paperwork, receipts- what else would you do in your spare time? Still, money is fun, and any way of at least virtually getting it can be fun by extension. Which is why some video games revolve around, or have segments of, running your own business. This could be a buy/sell table, price setting, or picking items to put up for sale. It just can't only exist in Cut Scenes or Back Story. Makes you feel like you're doing something useful, right? This can also apply to board games. Defiances of this trope are represented by Karl Marx Hates Your Guts and Adam Smith Hates Your Guts. A Sister Trope to An Economy Is You, Player-Generated Economy (the metagame version of the trope). Compare An Interior Designer Is You. |

Mount & Blade, much like a space sim, allows you to trade goods between cities. This is one of the most efficient ways of making money, and often necessary considering how much money a well-trained army costs. Then there is the new industry system which can have you invest in personal enterprises. Some financial knowledge required |

In the Saints Row series, the more territory the player controls, the more cash they get in their "stash" back at their crib. Originally, this was only done when completing missions and activities, but in the third game, the player does this largely by purchasing property, which increases the amount of cash they get per in-game hour. Purchasing stores also gives the player a significant discount in said stores. | |

The Breath of Fire games starting with the second one allowed you to build and manage a full Town. In II, you can bring NPCs to populate the place. There are some very specific characters that will help your party in various ways, two of which will turn the town into a Township, which in turn is essential for the Golden Ending. In the next games, Breath of Fire III, IV and Dragon Quarter, it's a fairy village. You now assign fairies (or worker ants in the last one) specific jobs from landscaping (at least until the whole village is clear), architecturenote exploration in DQ (until all buildings are done), and hunting (for food stocks which would increase the village's population and maintain their numbers, III and IV only), before giving them jobs that would again help the party in various ways. | |

In Fable III despite being the monarch you can directly own property and can make money by renting it out to the populace. You can use trophies from your adventures and buy furniture to make the property more desirable. You also decide how much rent is charged, though it's advisable to charge something as you will need money to get a decent ending to the game. | |

The latter half of Neverwinter Nights 2 follows this trope in spirit. Rather than a business, you must oversee the economic and military planning of one of Neverwinter's subject territories. The expansion pack Storm of Zehir is even more faithful to this trope, featuring a caravan system, income, expenses, balance sheet, etc. |

In the X-Universe series, the player starts out with nothing more than a puny scout ship or freighter and a handful of credits, and expands their possessions through combat, production through factories, and trading. All tasks can be done either personally or via automated ships. The expansion goes on forever; after a hundred hours, the player may own fleets of Space Truckers and Mile Long Ships, allowing them to directly counter the government entities. | |

The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind: Beyond the standard treasure hunting business of a freelance adventurer, you can put your item crafting skills into great use by making items to sell. Potions and enchantments are two highly profitable ventures. Additionally, many merchants sell damaged weapons and pieces of armor for for less than the items are worth in pristine condition. Buying them, fixing them up via the Armorer skill, and re-selling them can be very profitable. The Bloodmoon expansion brings the East Empire Company questline of building up the ebony mining colony of Raven Rock. You get to choose the types of services available and get to pick where to build your own "Factor's Estate" mansion. Also from Bloodmoon, after completing a few side quests, you get the opportunity to run the Thirsk mead hall. You can return every few days to collect your share of the profits. |

Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood expands this to a city-wide scale, allowing you buy boarded-up storefronts in Rome and putting them back into business, as well as landmarks. You can also reopen stables that will always have horses available for use, but since you can whistle for a horse at any time, there's not much point. Money's still useless for the same reasons above, though reopening the tunnel network is the best fast-travel system in the game. It's back again in Assassin's Creed: Revelations in Constantinople, and this time there's even less of an excuse to have it around than in Brotherhood since the fast travel tunnels are already available from the start. At least it makes sense that a banker's son would be inclined to attempt economic warfare against the Templars; even if it has no in-game effects, the idea's a sound one and it can feel satisfying. And it's back yet again in Assassin's Creed III, with your own village and crafting system, which lacks a tutorial and is hard to figure out by yourself. You can also send caravans of goods you crafted/hunted/found to shops, earning money. |

The hearse (the car used in the movie) has enough item space for a reasonable amount of traps and other equipment, and will see you through the game the first time. This was almost certainly intentional. It takes repeated playthroughs to earn enough capital to effectively use the more expensive options and still make back what you spent. | |

Potionomics has the player run a fantasy potion shop where they must craft and sell various potions as well as haggling with customers in order to get the best price from them. In-between running the shop the protagonist must also find new ingredients through shopping and financing adventurers while also cultivating relationships to unlock further bonuses. The primary goal however is to develop her alchemy skills to be capable of winning a potion-brewing competition and using the prize money to pay off her debt. | |
