Our take on Lower? Higher!
The bounce point arrives when ordinary buying and selling gives way to layered bargaining decisions. Players who do not want to judge customer motives, alter item properties, use assistant abilities, or accept dice-based uncertainty may hit the wall during negotiations.
What is Lower? Higher!?
Run a pawnshop in a cyberpunk setting where customers arrive with different needs, personalities, and opinions about an item's value.
Negotiate each sale, decide whether to sell quickly or wait for a better match, and use methods such as reading customer psychology, changing product properties, or relying on dice-based outcomes. As the shop expands, assign assistants and respond to emergencies. The business also brings encounters with tax collectors, missionary priests, suspicious visitors, and customers carrying hidden intentions. Transaction choices can create wider consequences through a stated butterfly effect. The game focuses on buying and selling, shop income, bargaining strategies, assistant abilities, and unusual events within the pawnshop's White Star setting.
