60 of 168 · most liked firstNo. It's just a time-waster. In the endgame, the gameplay degrades to set the price up when selling and down when buying.. It is a repetitive no-brainer, like a mobile game.... You watch numbers go up. That's the whole game
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The first 6 hours of this game are excellent! You will have to manage money and inventory space, deal with fake items, special characters, and events, you will get excited when you manage to sell something for 200% profit or you steal a briefcase But by the end it gets extremely repetitive, skipping most trades because they're not profitable enough to be worth your time. You know the outcome of all events and prizes are insignificant. You will be waiting for that trade which will make you 2M…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The gameplay loop is fine, but it drags out a lot, once you get some sort of wealth going there is no danger of ever declining from that point, and then there is just several hours of repeating the same sales tactics to gradually get richer and richer

unlabelledView post →This game was honestly pretty fun but very repetitive and after 5-6 hours, you'll just be bored of it because there's nothing else to it. I really wish the people had more things to them, because there's no relationships with the customers at all and there's nothing changing from just buying and selling items, like there's nothing keeping you interested in the deals. Also, I don't really like that the end point to the game was to get the highest/best pawn shop then there's another goal which is…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I don't know Rick, it looks fake… Welcome to a new chapter of your life, the beginning of the foundation of your own pawn shop. Alongside your friend Bob Rascal, you’ll start your new empire from scratch, with 6 random items to sell at your disposal. Select your main character from a selection of 20 characters (10 female and 10 male to choose from). Every character starts with two points distributed differently between the four perks available. These four skills available to master on this…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This could be a free phone game. POO POO
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game is a worthy successor. A lot of things have been improved. More objects, nicer graphics and smarter people. You can definitely spend a few hours in the game, even after you have achieved everything, the game does not get boring.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game gets way too boring too fast, the game is just too bare bones. I liked it for a little then it becomes a tedious grind simulator. Theres really not much skill which is fine, but the lack of skill mixed with repetitive game loop is the problem. If there was some kind of trick to the management aspect making it more skill intensive or something to twist the gameplay that'd be forgiveable. But the lack of variety/change mixed with the lack of need for skill is what hurts the game. Plain…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I've logged in just over 40 hrs with this game and it's nice to play and can really snag you at the start. After awhile though it gets repetitive and with so few special events happening, and even than they aren't really that special, I am found myself getting bored. I would play than come back to it just cause I wanted to really give it a chance. It has it's charm but after awhile it gets much too like a grind with very little pay off. It's a slightly enhance version of the 1st one and…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Getting quite repetitive fast, but still enjoyable and worth investing your time in.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very good game, I got to be rich and experience being wealthy and not poor and pathetic. I give this a 10^10/10. Finally I can go to sleep without crying and ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ my pants.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's kinda fun, nothing great, for like 5 hours.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →im rick harrison, and this is my pawn shop. I work here with my old man and my son, big hoss. everything in here has a story and a price. one thing I've learned after 21 years- you never know what is gonna come through that door.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I dont know rick, it looks fake.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I wanted to like this game, but unfortunately it just didn't hit for me. The gameplay is pretty repetitive, which would maybe be okay if I didn't find the humor so grating. It's not just meme humor, it's DATED meme humor. And it doesn't really do anything with the memes outside of just...referencing or repeating them. Between the two it just doesn't feel worth playing for long, at least for me. Sorry devs!
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →HONESTLY IT'S AN OKAY GAME. JUST FOUND IT QUITE BORING. OVERALL NOT MUCH HAPPENS, EVEN AS YOU EARN MORE AND UPGRADE. NOTHING TO REALLY MANAGE OR SPEND MONEY ON. IT NEEDS EXTRA THINGS TO HAPPEN OR EVENTS, OR MAYBE CUSTOMIZATIONS. ITS FUN FOR LIKE A DAY.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Just go close to the price of the number listed as the price in whatever direction you prefer and click checkmark till either they go to a price you like or just reject, not much to it. Not bad, just could be better and more interesting if all the item prices were unknown and you had to figure out what it should be based off the quality and rarity, maybe even some unknowns on that too. The characters don't have much personality, just states some variation of "I like this unspecified item and…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →very boring game, you just repeat doing the same thing for hours, but idk why is it so addictive, i just cant stop playing it
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I can't say that I dislike this game. It's got an interesting mechanic, and the player skills definitely show an improvement in the player's capabilities as the game progresses. The Auctions (both buying and selling) and buying storage lots add some variety to the game, as well. And you've also got the ability to take out loans or throw money into longer-term investments, too. But even with that said, you see the majority of what the game has to offer within the first half-hour of playing.…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I am quite happy with this game, mainly because as I progress I keep shouting at the customers for their won stupidity at asking me the SELLER a PRICE in a PAWNSHOP, I get more and more baffled everyday at how they allow me to give them a +235% price and just take it, which might not seem big until you get to products worth millions, then you begin asking: HOW ARE YOU SO ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ DUMB. After you see them go from 400k to 175k because why not. I love this game because scamming the ♥♥♥♥ out of…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →You tell people their legendary family heirlooms are actually worth like 3 euros. You start in a literal shack, and haggle your way up to a tycoon empire by hoping that the totally real item you just bought for 10mil isn't actually a painted stick. It's honestly a dangerously addictive loop of lowballing, getting scammed by costumers, and trying to find the endless pop-culture references hidden in your inventory. Amazing game.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I’ve never played the first Dealer’s Life, but I grabbed this one on sale and honestly? I’m not mad about it. It’s surprisingly fun. A quirky little game where you buy low, sell high, and try not to go broke doing it. What makes it even better is streaming it with a friend. Making shady deals, arguing over prices, and reacting to all the random customers and items adds a whole new layer of hilarity. Is it a deep, life-changing game? No. But is it entertaining and oddly addictive? Yup.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →meh, very mediocre
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →If you get serotonin from seeing a number go up, this game is definitely for you. The mechanics are simple and straightforward, you just buy things and you sell them back for a higher price. It's good for just relaxing and when you don't want to think too hard. Also the music and sound design isn't overly annoying, which is actually really important for a game whose core mechanics are simple and repetitive. There is a story and there are recurring characters, but I wouldn't say they're of any…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Gameplay The core of the game is all about negotiating prices. Every customer is different, and you need to use your skills (and maybe some luck) to figure out an item's real value and get the best deal. You can hire experts to spot fakes, upgrade your shop, and even get involved in auctions. It's a satisfying loop of trying to outsmart everyone to build your empire! Graphics The game has a charming, slightly cartoony visual style that fits its theme well. It's not about super realistic…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Dealer’s Life 2 is a uniquely charming and deceptively deep pawn shop simulation that builds its entire gameplay loop around the art of negotiation, business management, and progression through economic savvy. Developed by Abyte Entertainment, the game is an evolution of the original Dealer’s Life and refines its core concept with expanded mechanics, a more dynamic structure, and stronger replayability. At its heart, it’s a game about buying low, selling high, and outwitting an endless stream…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fun game, it can get repetitive but very easy to pick up and play. Played only on my steam deck with no issues :)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →graphics and gameplay in general are much better than the first version. i definitely recommend this game if you look for something casual and fun
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Don't like the art style and the mechanics are clunky, in some ways a downgrade from the first game.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Rip off simulator 2 worth a buy
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is worthwhile if you enjoyed the first game. It's a lot of the same, with new items, plenty of pop culture references, and a few new mechanics like being able to give pawn loans and have your own mix-and-match property to level up with your profits. IMO, it's a good chill-out game.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Started off good, got boring real quick. Late game is ass. Customers (noob j*ws) never want to buy anything, and progression is slow as ♥♥♥♥ as if Im playing some "care a r3tard" ass game. I have 150M cuz Im the best j*w oat, yet the game keeps giving me 200K items. Not worth the 4 bucks. ♥♥♥♥ this game. DO NOT BUY THIS
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Get it on sale. It's literally the exact same as number 1 and exactly the same as what's available on mobile. But for 4 or 5 dollars, it's alright. Gets extremely repetitive, as one would expect though. Really, I'd say this is a MAYBE buy if you want something to just click AND it's on a heavy sale. But anything more than 5 dollars is just entirely too much.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →You know those TV series which don't know when to end on a high note so they go on and on until they are no longer bearable to watch? This game has the same problem in the late game where it slowly becomes a monotonous grind with nothing new to see. But until then it's fun: good music, good mechanic (yes, singular, that's intentional), decent character progression and a ton of cool references. I can safely recommend unless maybe if you're a completionist and need to finish the game and get all…

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's extremely fun at the start but it starts to get boring over time. it's still a fun game to play from time to time. I would recommend.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Honestly, the game is just repetitive. Adictive but repetitive. Don't waste your time on it.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →노잼 완성도 낮음 우산금지를 백번 하겠음
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Alright but I think I can make a bot to finish the game for me. First game was somewhat original but this game doesn't seem to worth spending any time on. Like, this is one of many games that you do figure out the optimal way and do the same thing over and over again. Worth trying but not for a long time.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Just deal with it :-)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Pazarlık sünnettir
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Been grinding this game for the past few days now. The first few hours get repetetive quite fast and I've stuck to only buying and selling items, completely disregarding the stock market. It's really quite easy, making it a perfect casual game. You don't have to focus on anything in particular, but selling the items for more than you bought them for. Getting to the top does become extremely grindy. There are rarely any items worth more than 10 million. One of the last challenges requires 5…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's a really simple, mindless fun game. So simple that there is no gameplay difference between second hour and twentieth hour in your playthrough, only things to sell change their worth from 5K to 5M. I don't know why devs made winning condition of the game holding 5 BILLION dollar worth of money which means endless grind for hours and hours. Hard approval for this game. I suggest if you are one of those guys who play a game for couple days and dont open it again, because you'll start to…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Personally, I feel like this game equals to brainrot for me. There is so much grinding to be done before you can achieve the next goal :( I know that's some people's thing, but it just didn't work for me.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Es bastante divertido y atrapante por ahora, aunque si creo que quizás a la larga sea repetitivo y no quieras volver a jugar. Está bueno para pasar el rato.
