## Description
_PREVED.Igra_ is a managerial game with a self-sustained economy, themed
after the Russian Internet meme “PREVED” that was extremely popular in 2006.
Originally, it started with a basic mechanic, when each player gets a referral
link to his profile. Link visitors are greeted with “PREVED” (originally
“Surprise!” in English) and the host’s “medved” (slang for “bear”) can then
spend some power, which diminishes with time. More visitors means higher
position in leaderboards. As their real counterparts, bears are in need of
food, which restores power, so player send their alter ego to earn money on
some job. Later food can be bought in stores.
Over time, the game economic and user base expanded. Jobs were separated into
resource and production, industries started to provide careers. Medveds became
aware of their gender, making it possible to marry others.
Due to a decline in popularity, the game eventually stagnated and lost most of
its public in a couple of years.
