Players portray major industrial houses in early-1980s India working to build industry across the country. They bid for government rights, construct factories in six sectors (minerals, fuel, agro, power, transport, finance), and develop networks on a map of India. Players manage money and reputation, lobby to influence national policy, and acquire political support to resolve conflicts. Play proceeds over rounds where economic expansion, sector dominance, and political maneuvering determine scoring and ultimately decide the winner.
