A smart little puzzler where you take a role of currency exchange service. It lacks endless mode, but is definitely entertaining in small bursts.

This is a cool little shopkeeper game with a pretty dire lack of content and difficulty. I beat it twice in under 2 hours.
It's good. Creative system thats a joy to puzzle through. It's very clear that the team behind this put a lot of care into the aesthetic, the world, and the games mechanical systems. For that I give them full credit. That being said, the game isn't without faults. It's missing that last 10% that's needed to push it over the edge. For starters, the game is too easy. Coming in with no idea how the game played, I completed the game with all 3 characters in a grand total of 5 attempts. For a rougelike, a genre that thrives on mastery, this is a real problem. I'm not certain what the answer is, but an answer is sorely needed. In addition, the runs are only really challenging during the first pay period or two. After that, you've generally built up enough that the run has lost all of it's challenge. During my fifth run, as the third character, I had achieved the final required payment of $2000 at the beginning of the second day after a single customer. I then closed up shop, made sure the e...
best store sim i have ever played the constant trading of dice is hypnotising. highly recommend for such a low price and i wont say much more but its a roguelike game so there are tons of abilities that break the game in alot fun ways and there are more dice then i suspected again i dont want to spoil anything best go into this game blind with no expectations........ there are dice that have S. e x 10/10
I actually, genuinely feel like this is a 'diamond in the rough'. The worldbuilding is great, its pretty relaxing and calm, the soundtrack is amazing and provides such great tone and atmosphere. Really great for what it is, the decision making for each of the deals have heavy implications. All the modifiers make it really fun and interesting.
Absolute garbage. Uses “dice” as if it were a singular, in a game [i]about[/i] dice. Nope.
it is actually amazing what people can do these days
Fun achievements, lots of gameplay, enthralling mechanics, you just suddenly play the games for an hour and have a lot of fun once a week, theres a few bugs, the game has bin abandoned, and it feels a bit short, but its still a great game
Disclaimer: My scores/reviews are almost always based on having bought the game at close to the "lowest historical price" on steam at time of purchase. Quick score: 4/5 Notes: Very interesting game. Not usually my style, but I found it enjoyable for a couple hours.
I really enjoyed this game. It reminds me of a mix between Papers Please and Dicey Dungeons! The game has a good ui and is easy to pick up while also having depth. The different characters feel like they have their own identities while still interacting with mostly the same resources. Looking forward to playing more.
