Streetlight Syndicate

LOVE this addictive little game and easily invested two whole days playing it. Retired, bro. I've earned it. Thanks for your hard work Beagleguy!

Mobster themed Idle game where you buy and upgrade buisnesses, gamble, and fight off hitmen. Its fun. A bit of a story is played out at each of the buisnesses as you upgrade them and as you progress the game. Everytime you max out all of your buisnesses you can asscend which resets your progress and lets you spend resources to purchase upgrades from a skill tree. These upgrades are pretty normal idle game upgrades, but you can also get stuff that auto-buys upgrades, meaning the game an pretty much play itself other than pressing assend. Over all. I liked it. There's also something like a "new game+" mode when you finish the main "story"

Personally, I feel this game deserved far more attention than it got. I loved the setting, there's precious few games with a film noir theme to it. It's a short incremental idle game, but I think worth the money that's asked. It may not have revolutionary gameplay, but I liked the story additions that add to the vibe as well as the incremental money making side too. You can choose to play it actively or passively. At the time of me writing this, I finished the game with all achievements. Played more actively than I did, it could be done a bit sooner. The music was also great, with just one song that felt particularly loud compared to the rest of the jazz songs. You can set the music to play quieter songs after beating the story. I think it could be an option at the start of the game though. All in all, a solid short idle game with a great theme, music, and overall vibe that I liked very much. I hope the dev makes other games and I'd like to see what they do in the future.
