Starving Merchant

About the Game

All the kids wanted to become a dragon slayer, or a powerful wizard, or a mysterious rogue. You? You want one thing only: to make the most money possible.

Buy Low, Sell High

Buy goods from merchants in town, stock your shelves, and haggle with customers. Whether for profit, or to attract customers with an amazing deal, the right items are essential.

A World in Constant Chaos

The economy lives and breathes (and catches fire). A magical farm surplus could eradicate your margins, whereas a dragon attack could send your profits through the roof.

Commune With Outer Beings

When the economy fails, there’s always divine intervention. Beseech ancient entities for sharper haggling, hypnotic auras, or a well-timed crop failure, since when has profit cared about morals?

Dynamic economy

Adventurers rise and fall, apprentices quit, and rogues turn over a new leaf; the demand for goods is ever-changing. Adapt fast and diversify, or think ahead and have all you need.

Meet the Community

From eccentric heroes, mysterious witches, and those ever-present tax collectors, all sorts of strange characters wander into your store, each with their own stories.

Expand Your Store

Start with a humble shop, and expand into an emporium. Build new displays for your increasing collection, and when the time is right, move to a bigger, shinier money-making place.
