Overview

Debt Wish is a satirical incremental finance sim that puts you in the shoes of a small-time investor with big ambitions. You start with just a hundred dollars and a few risky lines of credit, then work your way up through stocks, crypto, bonds, and real estate.

The game leans heavily into the idea of leverage—your credit limit scales with your net worth, so the richer you get, the more rope you have to hang yourself with. It's a darkly humorous take on modern capitalism, wrapped in a numbers-driven idle loop.

Highlights

  • Incremental progression: Your wealth grows through passive income streams, property management, and smart trades, with the classic idle-game satisfaction of watching numbers climb.
  • Satirical edge: The game doesn't shy away from poking fun at the financial world—certain people only start returning your calls once you're worth enough, and the SEC may come knocking if your heat gets too high.
  • Multiple investment avenues: You can buy stocks, short the ones you don't believe in, hold cash in bonds, or dive into crypto and real estate, giving you plenty of strategic options.

Who It's For

If you enjoy incremental games like Cookie Clicker or AdVenture Capitalist but want something with a bit more thematic bite, Debt Wish is worth a look. It's also a good fit for anyone fascinated by finance, trading, or the absurdity of wealth accumulation.

The game is currently in English only, and it supports multiplayer, Steam Achievements, and Family Sharing. Since it's a paid title with no user reviews yet, you might want to check the latest Steam listing for more details before diving in.
