Dark Money

You’re in deep, but there’s one thing you’re good at
You owe, and you owe big. Now you're an accountant under the thumb of an international crime syndicate, compelled to engineer increasingly sophisticated money laundering systems that infiltrate every part of the globe. Every dollar you clean makes the next one easier… and riskier.

Numbers go up, but not for everyone
That clinic skimming means medication shortages for those who need it most. Those cut construction corners have deadly consequences. And the corrupt politicians in your pocket suppress the citizens who would do anything about it. Maybe you can live with that, as long as your accounts keep growing.
Someone is airing your dirty laundry
You thought you were clean on opsec, but leaked credentials have a journalist lighting up your encrypted phone. Use the investigative mechanics she gives you to undermine your competition and take over their networks. Or, if you’ve had enough of your ruthless boss, leak information that can expose it all.

Keep your friends close
While you build your empire, every text you send can change what happens next. Discover multiple endings depending on the money you kept, what you leaked, and who you let take the fall. But no matter what you choose, you'll see how money laundering really works — and who's left standing in the wreckage when powerful criminals walk away.
