PAY 2 WIN is an incremental strategy game about running a game studio. Customize your progression, find epic rewards, and discover clever ways to go infinite, as you're joined by Annie and May, your cute anime-inspired assistants.
As your repute grows, so do your choices; switch seamlessly between passive idle gameplay and active resource generation to more quickly boost your progress in the game and story. Random rewards keep you guessing what's next, while you invest in your favorite facilities to make the numbers BIGGER.
Your decisions alter your run and affect your story. One thing is certain - to make it in this industry, you'll need strategy, a bit of luck, and resources. Lots and lots of resources.

The grid represents your game studio, split into tiles on a 2D plane. Grow your office space by completing missions, find rare facilities to place on your grid, and increase their rarity and output. Placing certain facilities together activates unique buffs, combos, and output multipliers that benefit your run, letting you reach greater levels and unlock new progression.
Talents give certain facilities and playstyles passive benefits - Link compatible facilities together to create output chains that force multiply your output. Rare, Legendary items at the end of certain questlines and stories superpower your playthrough and unlock completely new styles of play.

Over 100 unique facilities to pick from! Every playthrough has randomized rewards ranging in rarity from Common to Legendary. Each selectable facility has unique and handcrafted pixel art with a retro vibe, complete with unique animations, effects and sounds sure to keep you wondering what's next!


Specialize your run into one of several unique styles of play, or mix and match to your heart's content! Play a run in a standard idle fashion, gaining buffs and output bonuses based on leaving your game idle, or opt into more active playstyles and select facilities that work with click actions, managing cooldowns, juggling buffs and debuffs, and so much more! The choice is yours!
Cast powerful magic spells that increase output, reduce other cooldowns, or grant other, curious effects. The magic system is fully integrated with your facilities, and they interact with one another, granting secret synergy potentials and letting your curiosity shine as your mastery grows. Learn new combinations, specialize your magic to your playstyle, and even start an apocalypse or two!


You're the new CEO of a failing games studio, and it's your task to take the company from the brink of closure to the top of the charts! How you do this is up to you - at key points in the story, you'll have the option to decide how best to approach problems, resolve scenarios, and alter the course of the story. You're not alone in your quest, however - as your two assistants, Annie, and May, beautifully realized in a cute anime aesthetic, come to your aid. Each of your assistants have their own personalities, preferences, and desires - and it is your job to choose which route to go down!


Experience handcrafted visuals, animations, and effects as you progress through the game. The UI is vibrant, with your assistants, elements, and even the background itself shifting and changing depending on your in-game actions. Plug in your headphones for an auditory feast as you enjoy several futuristic tracks, experience unique sound effects, and more!
