Features

Everything inside the castle.

The battle is where you see your debts. The rest of the game is where you build the habits that beat them.

The Treasury

A budget that plays like a raid.

The Treasury is the budgeting side of Debt Boss. It never changes a debt on its own: money you find or save only hurts a boss once you pay it and log the payment.

Plunder HuntGo through your monthly bills and decide for each one: keep it, cut it, or haggle it down. Savings can go into your War Chest.
Payday MusterSplit each paycheck into chests until no gold is left loose.
Daily RationsA safe-to-spend amount for today, spread over the days until your next payday.
Leak GremlinsWeekly caps on takeout, shopping, coffee and fun, each guarded by its own gremlin.

The Academy

Eleven lessons, eleven bosses.

Short, plain-language lessons that start with the basics and build to debt-specific skills. Each one ends with a quick check, and the first win pays Valor.

Slay Forecast

Valor

Earned for habits, not for dollar amounts.

A $20 payment and a $2,000 payment earn the same base Valor, so everyone can progress. Valor has no cash value and can't be bought.

Card Freeze

Stop the bleeding.

When you decide to stop using a credit card, freeze it in the game. The Sentinel fires an ice arrow and the card's Goblin is sealed in ice. It stops attacking (its interest still shows, because the real card still charges it). The game also reminds you to lock the real card in your bank's app; most have a freeze switch.

Subscription Bats

See every subscription you pay for.

Mark a bill as a subscription and it flies over your battlefield as a bat, sized by what it costs a month. Set a monthly subscription goal; go over it and the swarm glows red. See a bat.

Sharing

Brag without oversharing.

Slay a monster and the game makes a victory card and a short vertical clip for social media. You choose whether the debt's name and the dollar amounts show. Cards and clips are made on your device.
