No ads! Excellent management sim/RPG hybrid. You're in charge of a lending office in a fantasy world. Great gameplay loop of choosing from a pool of options for your daily operations and training up mercenaries. I'm a couple hours in and pretty hooked. It's a unique mobile experience of a surprising quality. Absolutely worth checking out.

I just wish the game would even start. On a Nokia X100, Android version 11. Once I get past the logo splash screens, the loading bar goes to 100%, but won't progress past "data loading". It's not frozen or locked up, because the screen is still animated, it just won't get past the loading even if left alone for a whole hour. I've tried restarting the phone, and I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling; I've even tried uninstalling, restarting the phone, and reinstalling. No dice.

Ignore those 1-star reviews they are all made 2 years ago... This is a 5-star game, you can play at your own pace. You can either play it safe with slow progress, or try to take risks with high returns but higher risk too. Once you know how to 'play safely' you can't lose. Many gems are required, very grindy. Problems: Many mechanics lack detailed explanations. Mercenaries lacks balancing with solo skills being just better than party skills, not requiring synergies. Imo.

It's fun, kinda in it's own way. There have been times it kinda hard to predict what will happen in the long run and really hard to make money for the upgrades. Your decisions early on will affect how much money and fame you get in the long run. I made the mistake of making too many deliquence and fighting them later instead of just denying the loan. It's really hard to earn money for the upgrades to make money at all most of the time I'm at the same amount of money I started on or less.

It's a lot of fun, but way too difficult, everything scales too quickly, and it's hard to keep getting the amount of gold needed to levels up your heroes when the enemies are almost always stronger than you meaning you can't keep up with the people scamming you very fun but need a lot of work on balancing the game out

Could be more fun with some attention to balance and interface clutter. The long meta-game of buying random upgrades with premium/per-reset currency is pretty terrible though... Game ends up being about filtering/rejecting through piles of spam, rather than making interesting choices. And even worse, certain 'upgrades' make desired rng-results less likely... PS since skill usefulness is so inconsistent, even within a single class,, the spectate/gamble screens need more detail.

Pretty fun game! I feel like a loan shark giving out short high interest loans to those who really need it earning quite the buck off them! Mostly to pay for my ever stronger private army used to "Persuade" those who don't want to pay that it's better to just pay up. And when everyone decides to just pay up I send them to do other work beating up people for money! Those bounties are yummy. Fun combination of management and strategy. Always wanted to play a moneylender.

Love this game, very challenging but sometimes too challenging. For a game that is not solely about battling, the combat system is way too complicated. It is very difficult to make and maintain a good amount of money but in a good way. I love the pixel art and designs of the mercenaries. Only play this game if you have patience

It's not a hard game, a couple of things could maybe use a bit more explaining? Unless I missed it early game. Level/perday increases should actually only effect up to a certain point. Like if your loaning out 1 grand max then the level scale hits. But if your below 1 grand then it should only matter the interest scale. I wasn't training my guys so now I'm in level 4 territory with level 2s getting my glutes handed to me xD Edit: Building upgrades are too damn expensive. I never have 50k sitting

Worth the 5 stars. Lending can be fun and challenging! Lots of options, but you need to prepare if the random tasks are unavailable (wish there was an underground for tasks). Watch the levels of who you lend to! Unfortunately it crashes for me randomly, can't seem to reproduce it 😔 hope it works for you.
