In this puzzle game you inspect offers on a fictional marketplace: question sellers, study photos and appraisal records, and compare past deals in the sales ledger. Each commission gives you limited focus, so you choose which checks matter before deciding to buy or pass — then review the profit or loss.

There are 60 campaign commissions, including boss deals with multiple items and changing contract terms, plus a Daily Market, ability upgrades and unlockable profile portraits. You can start as a guest; account linking and cloud saves require an internet connection. Coins and items are gameplay only, with no real-world trading or cash redemption.

Why no subscription? The game is free with no recurring fee. It does contain advertising, including optional rewarded ads, and in-app purchases from $0.99 to $3.99 — among them an ad-removal pack at $3.99. One-off payments instead of a subscription.
