Update: Prestige Mode & New Bank Reserve Mechanics

Prestige Mode

Think you've mastered the Fed? Prestige Mode is a new difficulty layer for all five historic scenarios — Volcker, Greenspan, Bernanke, Yellen, and Powell. The economy reacts more sharply to your decisions, margins for error are tighter, and you'll earn a separate Prestige grade alongside your normal one.Bank Reserve RateFor gameplay set before 2008, you now have access to the Bank Reserve Rate — a powerful but blunt tool that controls how much cash banks must hold in reserve. Raise it to cool an overheating economy. Lower it to free up lending. But be careful: changes take several quarters to fully ripple through the system, and sudden moves can rattle markets.This tool is available during the Volcker, Greenspan, and early Bernanke eras, just like it was in real life before the Fed retired reserve requirements in 2020.Other Improvements

  • New achievements to unlock

  • Fixed an issue where achievements could re-trigger across runs

  • Scoring and grading improvements across all prestige scenarios

Thanks for the feedback!
