The Fruit Merchant's Diary

About the Game

Buy Low, Sell High, Survive the Gaze

In this narrative-driven economy simulation inspired by games like Dealer's Life, you are not a hero; you are a fruit merchant trying to make a living. But in this market, money isn't the only currency—Karma is.

Your goal is simple: Earn 1 Million Karma. How you get there is up to you.

🍎 The Art of Trade

Start with a small stall and limited inventory. Buy fresh produce from local producers and sell them to fluctuating customer demands. Master the market, predict price changes, and manage your stock carefully. Every rotten apple is a loss, every successful deal brings you closer to your dreams.

👁️ The Great Blue Eye

The world is watched by a mystical entity known as the Great Blue Eye.

  • Good Path: Stay honest, pay the producers fairly, and help those in need. The Eye will not harm you, but the path to wealth will be slow and hard.

  • Evil Path: Bribe officials, scam producers, and amass gold quickly. But beware—the Eye watches the sinners. The more evil acts you commit, the higher the chance the Eye will end your journey instantly.

⚖️ Karma & Consequences

Gold is just a tool. To win, you must convert your earnings into Karma by spending them on good deeds or dark rituals.

  • Bribe the Guards: Use your gold to make the guards put the Blue Eye to sleep temporarily, allowing you to sin without immediate punishment.

  • Dream System: When you sleep, your day's choices manifest in your dreams. Will you see a vision of hope or a nightmare of judgment?

Features

  • Dynamic Economy: Prices change, demands shift. Adapt or go bankrupt.

  • Hand-Drawn Style: A unique, colored-pencil aesthetic that brings the gritty market to life.

  • High Stakes: One wrong move under the Blue Eye's gaze can mean game over.

  • Strategic Management: Balance your inventory, your gold, and your moral compass.
