Description

A simultaneously serious and sarcastic simulation examining the buying and selling of art. Set in the near future (at the time of its release). Mingle with buyers and get the latest dirt on the competition. Deal with problems of forgery, shilling, overhyped artists, overpriced kitsch, and futuristic science (such as technology uncovering that the Mona Lisa actually had a beard that someone painted over.)

The game features several pieces of Classical that still need to be identified in this description. The artists are, Johann Sebastian Bach, Ludwig van Beethoven, Erik Satie, Francisco Tarrega, and Antonio Vivaldi

Requires a 386 CPU, Win 3.1, 4MB RAM, 1X CD-ROM, Keyboard, and Mouse.
