Spike the market or crash it in this high-stakes deckbuilder
Naiive Studio today announced that Insider Trading, a stock market-inspired roguelike deckbuilder, is available now on Steam.
In Insider Trading, stakes escalate fast. Small trades can quickly snowball into compounding gains that feel unstoppable until the market flips and everything crashes. Each run starts with a character, complete with unique mechanics and a starting deck, and is shaped by market-moving cards, perks, and events that drive wild price swings and runaway momentum. Your decisions push the market further, daring one more move and one more risk.
Over 120 cards across 12 card types can be unlocked and combined to build strategies for unpredictable market swings and compounding effects. More than 50 perks, including cursed perks with dangerous tradeoffs, allow for powerful synergies or high-risk, all-or-nothing approaches. The game includes six difficulty levels for both casual players and day trading experts.
Insider Trading is available on Steam for $12.89 USD. To celebrate the launch, the game has a 15% discount for a limited time, bringing the launch price to $10.96 USD.
The game supports ten languages: English, Simplified Chinese, Japanese, Korean, French, German, Polish, Portuguese, Spanish, and Italian.
About Insider Trading
Insider Trading is a stock-themed roguelike deckbuilder where the market you create can just as easily crush you. Stack synergies, trigger price swings, and take control so your momentum won’t bankrupt you.
- Control the Stock Market: Every card directly affects a shared stock price that defines the run. Pushing prices higher opens new opportunities, but unchecked growth increases volatility and makes collapse more likely.
- Explosive Combos: Cards belong to distinct types, and playing multiple cards of the same type in a single turn triggers combo effects. Smart sequencing and deck construction can turn small hands into explosive plays.
- Winning Isn’t Always Safe: Rising prices unlock stronger effects and bigger payouts, but they also make the market harder to control. Many runs end not because of bad luck, but because success was pushed too far.
- Characters That Shift the Rules: Each character starts with a unique deck and mechanics that reshape how risk, control, and volatility are approached from the very first turn.
- Chaos in Every Run: Events, perks, and one time pills can dramatically alter a run mid game, forcing players to adapt when their strategy stops working the way they expected.
- High Stakes Only: Optional difficulty modes tighten margins and increase penalties, rewarding players who understand when to slow down and when to let the market crash.
