A downloadable game for Windows

To the mortal it may concern,

Good news! An opening has become available for an independent entrepreneur in our ever-expanding, all-powerful, definitely-not-evil network of professional warlocks! Join the forces of the Highest Being, The Lord of The Pyramid of Darkness, Em'EllEm!

If you agree to this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, you will be bound to make a profit! Truly! You will be bound! You must raise $100,000,000 in profit!

A powerful warlock such as yourself couldn't possibly fail, could you? Simply raise this money by selling the magical goods we will provide. Our goods are... in such high demand, that if a customer can afford it, they will be... almost compelled to buy them. Simply throw goods purchased from this, the Tome of Wholesale, at your customers. Goods from your inventory will summoned from your home, and any goods you drop or misplace will automatically be returned to your home after a short time. Easy!

But to reach your goal before the deadline, you must recruit others into your web of lies-- I mean, your network. Some mortals will be willing to join you, for a price. There is always a price. Don't think about it too much.

Pay them an upfront investment and they will begin to sell goods themselves, paying you a portion of each sale as a commission. In order to maximize profits, seek out across the city for those with bigger purses. Always be selling! To gain access to these sections of the city, you will have to seek out certain individuals and convince them to join our enterprise.

And remember, in the pursuit of profit, souls, and servants for The Highest Being Em'EllEm ... the more the merrier!

Great incremental game. Love that you sell things by chucking them at people. The character interactions and writing were fun to read!

Very satisfying to see numbers going up by orders of magnitude, and fun to run around and recruit previous characters like the merchants, cats etc once you reach the next 'tier'.
I looooved all the characters, the writing was *chef's kiss*!

Finally - a game to stretch my talents. 

I successfully took over the kingdom! I loved the different districts, dialogue choices, and the mix between an exploration game and an idle game. (I'm a huge fan of games where numbers go up) I enjoyed starting with not a lot and recruiting people! 

Great job to everyone! This is super cool.
