It was developed by Armonk Corporation, a small software development company based in Newport Beach, California, and was published under their \"Gray Flannel Fun\" label. The game is a prototypically self-aware humor-driven 1980's \"executive simulator\" similar to the 1989 NES game Wall Street Kid. Unlike most other business simulations, it does not involve making actual economic decisions or managing stores of resources. Rather, the player must manage the trajectory of their character's career at a single fictional corporation, MMC (Mighty Microcomputer Corporation) by making a series of on-the-job and managerial decisions while navigating office politics, evading blame for bad outcomes, and gaining support in different roles throughout the company. The game presents the player with situations and problems which must be solved by choosing from multiple choices. After a series of questions the game evaluates the player's performance resulting in either a career advancement option or getting fired from the company. During the course of the game, the economy can change from a boom into a recession and even into a depression. The goal of the simulation is to rise to the position of President, thus coming to occupy the titular and coveted \"Executive suite\", before hitting the firm's mandatory retirement age of seventy-five."@en }
