In a land where emotions manifest as literal hearts that can be exchanged, stolen, or traded, players take on the role of a wily heart broker named Ash. As a connoisseur of feelings, Ash travels through vibrant cityscapes and eerie forests, negotiating heart deals with whimsical characters—each with their own unique desires and personalities. The game revolves around strategic choices, moral dilemmas, and clever dialogues as players gather a collection of hearts to barter against a looming catastrophe: a heartthief who threatens to drain the emotions of the entire realm. Each choice influences the world around you and can lead to unexpected twists. Will you gamble with powerful emotions, or play it safe? The heart of the matter lies in your hands.
