# 8. CORE GAME LOOP

The core game loop is the most important element of the Storm Warfare game experience. We want our players to play games while staying close to the game's auction systems for as long as possible to be able to spend money or buy cards from other players.

Storm Warfare is designed to have a core loop in order to make it easy for our players to reach auctions. At the end of every step, it is important to direct our players to the cornerstone of our game's economy; the more players engage with auction systems, the longer they will stay and be engaged with the game.
