There's just one problem: you're completely broke.
With no other choice, you'll have to wander the city's grimy backstreets, searching for anything that might help you survive another month.

The path to fortune is anything but straightforward, and there is more than one way to reach your goal.
Will you pay your rent before time runs out?
