Big Mansion Overview
Big Mansion was one of those games you'd find on a Flash portal in the mid-2000s, a simple economic simulation built for a browser. It didn't have a complicated story or fancy graphics. It was just you, a starting budget, and a grid of houses waiting to be traded.
You control a cursor, clicking to buy properties when their prices are low and selling them when they rise. The main goal is straightforward: earn enough profit to purchase the titular big mansion before the timer runs out. The mechanics involve watching market fluctuations, managing your limited cash to avoid going broke, and sometimes waiting out a slump. The pacing is tense, as prices can change quickly and a bad purchase can stall your progress for precious seconds. It feels like a quiet race against the clock, where a single miscalculation means starting over from the beginning.
