You hire employees, claim electricity projects across the United States, aim for new technologies and use propaganda to influence public opinion. At the stock exchange, you buy and sell opponent’s shares. In three phases of two rounds each you use persons - so-called luminaries, new ones are auctioned at the start of rounds 1, 3 and 5 -  to claim a project, advance technology, propaganda or stock market. At the end of a round, prestige is adjusted, profits dealt out in cash and luminaries are reactivated. At the end you win with the most valuable stock portfolio.
