Characters

Your boss. Works 24 hours a day.

Will cure your poverty virus with money.

Your colleague. Introverted... No energy for work...

Can’t find the meaning of life.

Your manager. Funny vampire :3

Wink! (^_<)

Gameplay

Defeat Primrose-sama's sleep deprivation monsters before they become real. 💤

Select the monster cards to attack. Get more cards and craft runes to become overpowered. 💥

Work–Life Balance

Overworking is unhealthy. Probably. I guess. Maybe. 😓

You should find something meaningful to do other than work. (Like playing this game? 🥺👉👈) 

After all, what’s the point of all work... if we never have fun, never enjoy life, never truly live? ( •◡<) -☆

TL;DR

Living is Expensive… is a short and funny visual novel you wouldn’t want to miss.
