Exploring and collecting goody huts, fighting off barbarians -> going around the idea maze trying to find product market fit
Catherine cozies up to you, then suddenly declares war and sends over a carpet of doom -> Amazon did a bunch of butt sniffing pretending to want to acquire, then decides to copy your product and launch a competitor
Chieftain level: you went to an Ivy league school, have a wealthy parent that is a partner at a Tier 1 VC, and get a free (no equity) 500k angel investment to start off
Immortal level: you are an immigrant who just arrived in US before college. You are working 2 jobs to support your parents and siblings. 1 of your parents is sick. Most of your friends are trying to get rich quick off crypto.
(don't even ask what deity level might be)
I would love to give folks the real startup experience without the risk so they can feel what it's like. I think the challenge here is figuring out what the movement and interpersonal mechanics would be: so much of building a company is about relationships. Perhaps some of it can be procedurally generated, using GPT-3 or similar models. Like when you are trying to negotiate multiple term sheets and the investors try various tactics on you.

EDIT: if you're gonna downvote, at least explain why?
