In a dystopian universe where feelings are commodities and emotions can be traded, you wake up in a bizarre marketplace filled with the lively espionage of heart brokers and empathy pickpockets. As a new 'Heart Merchant,' you must navigate the intricacies of purchasing, selling, and even stealing various hearts, each with its unique emotional powers and backstories. Your choices will determine if you become the kingpin of this black market or if you’ll be consumed by the very emotions you manipulate. Friendships will be tested, alliances will be formed and broken, and you may even find a heart that belongs to someone you least expect.
