What is Zefville Mogul?
It is a money game you play a few minutes at a time. Your businesses and properties earn Zoins every hour, even while you are away. You decide what to do with them: open another business, buy property, trade the markets, or save up for something big.
The more you earn, the higher your rank. There are ten ranks to climb in Season 1, from Broke Boykie to Zefville Legend, and each one unlocks bigger businesses, new property and new ways to invest. Along the way real life gets in the way: Tax Day, storms, strikes and tenants who do a runner.

Season 2: The Boardroom
Players who finish Season 1 enter the Boardroom at level 11. Your shops and property become one company with its own name and value, and from level 13 you hire managers for each division. A good manager lifts a division's income; a weak one costs more than he brings. It is a light first look at how real companies are run.
