Rich Routine

The number to watch is not the salary. It is what is left of it.

You pick a job, the city you live in, and one thing you are after. Then the months come: pay lands, costs are taken out, and something is left over — or nothing is. The game runs until what you own covers what you spend, or that day never arrives.

HOW TO PLAY

You roll, you move. On some squares two deals come up and you can take only one: price, down payment, monthly yield and risk are all written in front of you. If your cash falls short you can borrow — the instalment is written there too, because "borrow" on its own is just a promise.

Everything you buy goes onto your statement. Your coverage shows how much of your monthly costs your passive income pays for. Reach 100% and you are out of The Grind; the road to your dream starts after that.

THE NUMBERS ARE NOT INVENTED

Salaries, rents, groceries and bills, deposit and bond yields all come from real data. Change country or city and the tempo changes: a cheap city gets you out early but your pay falls behind inflation, an expensive one drowns you in the first years. Twenty jobs, from courier to doctor, each with its own income, costs and debt.

NO ACCOUNT, NO INTERNET, NO DATA

There is no sign-up. The game runs on your phone and your progress stays on your phone. Nothing is collected and nothing is sent anywhere. No ads.

THE FIRST 7 DAYS ARE FREE

From the moment you install it, the whole game is open for seven days: twenty jobs, twenty dreams, every screen. After that, a subscription of 49.90 TRY per month is required to keep playing, and your saved game stays where it is. Payment is charged to your Apple Account on confirmation. The subscription renews itself unless it is cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends; you can cancel it on the Subscriptions page in your device settings.
