  • bazaarBot

    A simple free market simulator engine. Based on "Emergent Economies for Role Playing Games" by Doran and Parberry.

  • The most promising thing I found was this paper titled "Emergent Economies for Role Playing Games" that tries to simulate a market of different goods with a variety of different buyers and sellers with their own professions with different needs. I found two rudimentary implementations of this paper, bazaarBot by /u/larsiusprime and EconSim by /u/omikun. Both of these implementations wanted to expand further than the simple five commodity economy with a handful of professions by adding in the affect of taxes, banks, trade, investment, currencies, and the likes, but it seems that none of them really updated beyond that.

  • EconSim

    Agent based economic simulator in unity
