He's also dead, or undead at the very least. Players do not take on the role of the Captain himself. And ya know what, the North American SMS port (which I have) had two stages excised (compared to the Japanese and European variants), apparently as a cost-saving measure. Actually wait, it was also on the NES (okay, on the Famicom in Japan). Case in point: Captain Silver, a 1987 Data East arcade game that made its way to the Sega Master System one year later.

Mostly, however, you watch various performance metrics, and adjust your production accordingly. You manipulate a few things, such as the price of paper clips, when to buy more wire, how quickly to cut new paper clips, etc., and you get more abilities and production capacity as you go.
