2. Urban Survival Mechanics: Balance risky ventures like underground trading or illicit networking with legitimate jobs to rebuild your finances, all while avoiding police scrutiny.
3. Relationship Dynamics: Forge alliances with mentors, rivals, or underworld figures whose trust (or betrayal) can shift your path toward success or back into the system.
Narrative Depth
1. Personal Backstory: Begin post-release with a criminal record, limited resources, and haunting memories of the scam that derailed your future—choices here echo your original decisions that led to prison.
2. Authentic City Simulation: Explore detailed neighborhoods filled with diverse characters, from struggling locals to powerful influencers, each offering unique interactions that shape your ascent or downfall.
3. Redemption or Ruin: Will you exploit systemic gaps for survival, or risk everything to reclaim legitimacy? The city evolves based on your actions, offering no guarantees of forgiveness.
Gameplay Systems
