Fellow Traveller's The Invisible Hand is Out Now!

Our publisher, Fellow Traveller is an indie games label publishing innovative story-driven games. Their newest game, The Invisible Hand is out today!

The Invisible Hand is a satirical take on stock market trading, where you’ll be empowered to pursue wealth and success… at the cost of everything else, in a story of finance and personal responsibility.

You begin the game on your very first day at the trading firm FERIOS, a brokerage where they turn a blind eye to breaking the rules as long as you deliver results. Profit is what matters and the rules don’t apply to winners. Plenty of others want your position, so it’s up to you to make money, at any cost.

Congrats on your new job, and welcome to FERIOS. It's time to make some money.

Buy the stocks going up, sell before they go down. Short the ones that are going to fall (or the ones you’re going to make fall). The more money you make, the bigger your commission. And you want that commission, don't you? Well don’t worry, the rewards are limitless, if you’re hungry enough.



We’re one big happy team here at Ferios and nothing brings the team together like competition.

So in the spirit of togetherness you better meet your daily profit targets and beat your coworkers’ results if you want to keep your job. We won’t hesitate to fire anyone who can’t or won’t do what it takes to succeed...

New character intros


Stix owns his own shop at the market called "Stix's Shack". He's a bit sleazy... always looking for ways to rip off students. He's voiced by Dylan Hernandez!



Dimitri is an intimidating, but soft on the inside type of guy. He loves to challenge people to arm wrestle him. He also secretly watches anime and always refers to himself in third person. Voiced by Andy Mack!



Marin is an annoying child who constantly throws his frisbees around. He doesn't like old people (by that he means anyone older than 16) and is best friends with Wendy. Voiced by Jessica Spencer!

LudoNarraCon

We just wrapped up an amazing LudoNarraCon, the festival for indie narrative games organised by our publisher Fellow Traveller.

During our stream we interviewed actors Molly Zhang (Simona and Pierre), Aimee Smith (Ms Markova, Ms Petrova and Wendy) and Sean Chiplock (The Kraken, Headmaster and Jean). No worries if you missed it, we will show it in the future at another event!




We're also participating with a song and wallpaper in the LudoNarraCon Supporter Pack, which is still up for grabs for a couple more weeks! Check it out here!
