Loan Shark

You've spent your whole life being the debtor. Now you're on the other side of the desk. The Don fronts you $2,000 and 14 days to turn it into $12,000. Compound interest works for you now — but every hard move feeds the HEAT, and at 100 the cuffs come out.

Each day, one move:

• 🤝 Lend — pick a borrower: the safe working stiff, or the shady card-room regular who pays triple (and skips town twice as often)
• 👊 Shake down — collect a loan early, press-your-luck: pay up, cough up a little, or run
• 💼 Legit front — launder some cash, cool the heat
• 🕴️ Lay low / 🍸 Bribe the captain — buy your way out of the spotlight

Dilemma events pause the day with real choices: forgive a sick man's debt (the street remembers), or squeeze him dry? Slip the detective $400, or stonewall and gamble on the heat? A tense little press-your-luck roguelite of you versus the law.
