The Gallerist

Picture combining the shrewdness of an art dealer, the curatorial eye of a museum, and an artist's career manager. In The Gallerist, you are exactly that: the gatekeeper of the art world. Your mission? Turn your gallery into a cultural and financial epicenter. You'll discover and promote artists, buy their works, organize high-impact exhibitions, and of course, sell them for a fortune. But there's more: building an international reputation is key to attracting wealthy visitors from everywhere. And since it's not all smooth sailing, you can hire assistants to run this whole operation. The gameplay is a delicious puzzle of decisions: where to allocate your limited assistants, when to speculate in the art market, which contracts to sign, and how to invest in artists' careers to increase their work's value. It's a medium-heavy game full of strategy and planning, but the feeling of commanding your own art empire is unmatched. Get ready to negotiate like a shark, curate like a visionary, and profit like a mogul.
