In a world where emotions are tangible and can be exchanged, you play as Riley, a down-on-their-luck Heart Merchant struggling to balance their own emotional wellbeing while navigating the complex underbelly of the Emotion Exchange Market. Your choices lead to deeply dramatic and often humorous encounters with a cast of eclectic characters, each with their own desires and emotional debts. As you barter (or steal) hearts, you must decide whether to lift others or weigh them down, creating a narrative that explores the intricacies of empathy, love, and betrayal. The stakes are high, and every decision pulls at the very strings of your heart.
