Professional reviews from gaming critics

The Invisible Hand is a unique role-playing stock market simulator that is elegant, well made and well worth a look

May 14, 2021

While this dark new take on the classic Universal Monster might not be for every audience, its inventive use of abuse and narcissism as a structural outline for horror means that this uniquely grim outing for The Invisible Man largely works. Leigh Whannell's dedication to crafting terror from abuse without necessarily making a statement might rub some viewers the wrong way, but The Invisible Man's stark settings, solid performances, and great production design -- accompanied by Whannell's impressive eye for unusual action sequences -- could make this the first word-of-mouth horror hit of the y...

Could you be the next big Wall Street superstar? The Invisible Hand lets you take a look into the world of high-flying financial analysts, and what it takes to stay in that position. Through all of the lobbying and luxury, will you win big or lose big?

For Escape to the Movies, film critic Bob Chipman reviews The Invisible Man, an uneven but ambitious and effect modern horror movie update.

When all is said and done, The Invisible Hand is a critique on the economics of capitalism, presented through a story with a focus on managing stocks. Unfortunately, those looking for a game with a deep and innovative stock simulator system will not find it in The Invisible Hand. What players do find is an entertaining experience for a few hours, driven by a desire to be a better stockbroker than their coworkers. Power Struggle Games should be proud of the release of The Invisible Hand, letting players live out the fantasy of being a big-time stock trader, all the while warning them of the gre...
