You owe $8,000. The Collector gave you 14 days. Your debt compounds every night — clear it to $0 before the deadline, or before it spirals past the bankruptcy line.

Each day you get one move:

  • πŸ’Ό Work a shift — steady cash, but you tire if you grind it every day
  • 🎰 Gamble half — double-or-nothing, then press your luck: let it ride to double again… or lose it all
  • πŸ“ˆ Invest half — pays back double in two days (if it doesn’t go sideways)
  • 🀝 Cut a deal — buy two nights with no interest when the spiral is winning
  • πŸ’° Pay the debt — dump your cash onto the principal

Between moves, dilemmas force real choices — take the sketchy gig for fast cash and risk the Collector’s wrath, or play it safe. A tense little press-your-luck roguelite of you versus exponential math.

πŸŒ€ Daily Challenge — everyone plays the same 14 days and shares a spoiler-free emoji result card. Free, no install, plays in your browser.

πŸ” Now play the flip side: Loan Shark β€” same 14-day money spiral, but this time you're the one collecting the debt.

Fun Concept! Finally beat it on day 14, just invested as often as possible then worked the remaining days, only had 6k until getting lucky with a big investment win at 20k on the final day
