CRYPTO_CRASH is a turn-based game placing you in the role of an amateur cryptocurrency trader looking to raise enough money to escape to Canada. Can you navigate the turbulent waters of the crypto market?
This Ruby-based CLI application was designed and created by Kurt Bauer and Noah Berman for the Module 1 Final Project at the Flatiron School. The objective was to create a CRUD app to learn data persistence and backend design with ActiveRecord and SQLite3.
The objective of CRYPTO_CRASH is to accumulate cryptocurrency worth $5,000 by the end of turn ("day") 3. The price will fluctuate based on developments in the rapidly deteriorating global society. Players have the option of selling their precious few, final assets to acquire additional cash.
