What's more fun than business? Spreadsheets, paperwork, receipts- what else would you do in your spare time? Still, money is fun, and any way of at least vitually getting it can be fun by extension. Which is why some [[Video Game|video games]] revolve around, or have segments of, running your own business. This could be a buy/sell table, price setting or picking items to put up for sale. It just can't only exist in [[Cutscene|Cut Scenes]] or [[Backstory]].

== [[Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game|MMORPGs]] ==
* Any MMORPG that includes an auction house, which is most of them, can be played this way. Some players will abstain from fighting monsters and instead focus on building up their finances via playing with the in-game economy and, usually, exploiting whatever crafting skills they have mastered to sell items that other players need but can't create themselves.
* In ''[[E Republik|eRepublik]]'' there is usually a minister/secretary of finance for each country who's job it is to deal with inflation, taxes, economic stimulus, etc. So in many ways A Central Banker Is You too.
* In ''[[Dealt in Lead]]'' players can run [[Saloon Owner|saloons]]. Eventually banks, general stores, drugstores, etc, will be added.
* ''[[EVE Online]]'' is an MMORPG with an almost entirely player run economy. Economic activities the players can participate in range from trading to manufacturing to extortion to mercenary work. There have been several examples of player run banks.
