Start as a destitute beggar collecting scraps, then transform into entirely different character archetypes—priest, thief, rat whisperer, or arsonist—each unlocking distinct story paths and mechanics. This text-based idle game weaves incremental progression with darkly comedic medieval city politics and genuine consequences for your choices, appealing to players seeking narrative depth alongside their passive earnings.
About this game
You play as a beggar in an idle incremental game where you beg for food. Become a priest, a thief, a rat lover, or a sadistic pyromaniac. Textually explore a city during medieval times, complete with church politics. But first, could you spare some food?

Improve mouse scrolling
3 days ago- I have added an improvement for mouse scrolling issues. This should make the issue better but potentially still slow for big monitors, I'll see if I can maybe add a setting thing for it or tweak it based on screen size / DPI, I'll get back to this. Sorry for the trouble anyone!!!
