According to its creators:

This game is not for everyone. It is for those who understand that prestige has a price.

They also describe it as “the most expensive game on Steam.”

Players enter a palace, walk a red carpet, and see their names displayed for future owners. No idea if this game is a joke or a social experiment

Even if only one person buys it, that covers the cost of vibe coding this shit.

The iPhone did it over a decade ago with I AM RICH, an app that just showed a diamond. Or a ruby? IIRC it was red. The app simply opened an image anyone could get. Rappers and other influencers bought it just to show it off. Showing the image was cheap, anyone could do that. Showing it open from the app on your Home Screen (before you could use Shortcuts to fake it) was the prestige. And people did it.
