    A game developed to show the inevitable failure of late stage capitalism becomes highly successful and kills all other competitors. Fate is cruel and twisted.

      basically just capitalist realism in action, all art critical of capitalism ends up being subsumed, made meaningless and even ends up contributing to capitalism

      To be fair, in 1904 wasn’t exactly late stage capitalism yet, but it was failing maybe even more than now. Actually, there aren’t many stages of capitalism where it didn’t massively fail the poorer people.
