Post-apo-capitalistic social deception game Eat the Rich will launch for PC via Steam and Epic Games Store on July 23, followed by PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, iOS, and Android at a later date, publisher Monstronauts and developer Maccima Games announced.
“We think everyone deserves a way to EAT THE RICH!” said Monstrnauts CEO Allen Tan in a press release. “We hope this slice of chaos brings some catharsis in a time where the have-nots are constantly taken advantage of by you-know-who. There is more mogul madness to come, and we can’t wait to show you soon!”
Here is an overview of the game, via its store pages:
About
Billionaires? Everybody just LOVES billionaires! That’s why we’ve put them on a game show to FIGHT FOR THEIR LIVES! Play online with 6-10 players in this social party game where you fight against each other to see who has the most Pennies in the end.
Society has collapsed due to the unbridled greed of the one percent. In retribution (and in lieu of a guillotine), the masses have forced the billionaires responsible into a deadly carnivalesque game show against each other called EAT THE RICH. In this game show, billionaires go head-to-head in a rich immersion of social reality—all without their hard-earned generational wealth!
As punished billionaires, players compete for pennies and other advantages over multiple rounds.
Players vote each other out of the game until only 3 remain.
The last player standing with the most Pennies then wins the game.
Group Mini-Games
Play a carnival of mini-games for precious Pennies and prizes! Work as a team to secure hard-earned cash to use later on for Power Ups.
Brawl
Aggravated assault is a very serious crime but in this game show, you are encouraged to beat the shit out of each other! Billionaires can freely duke it out among each other at any time. Wield various items and weapons, like guns, to gain the upper hand around the map. Be careful with your Pennies as other players can knock it right out of your hands!
Networking and Elimination
Make friends, frenemies, foes—whatever you call them—to get a leg up in the competition!
- Be aggressive and create alliances with other players to vote out the one who you think has the most Pennies

Winning
