Greed Corp is a turn-based game involving strategic battles on a map featuring a land collapsing mechanic. Players choose one of four factions (Freemen, Pirates, Cartel, Empire) in matches of around 20 minutes. The game also features a single player campaign for each faction.

Players gain credits at the start of their turn and through harvesting layers of land. Built harvesters will slowly destroy the tile they are on and in the area around them. When players harvest too much, the playing field starts to crumble, making depleted tiles collapse. Tactics involve understanding the offensive value of a harvester as well, using it as a weapon and strategically causing destruction to both opponent and playing field.

Credits may be spent on:

While the four factions are completely identical in terms of gameplay, each faction has its own visual style and role in the campaigns.

Greed Corp received mostly positive reviews. On Metacritic, the Xbox 360 version has 79%, and the PlayStation 3 version 78%. The PC version is rated positively at 76%
