About This Game

The Game

Fence is a Crime/Trading RPG set in The Bronx during the early 1990’s. You play as Jimmy, a recently expelled high schooler that’s trying to make ends meet while his alcoholic mother drinks her life away at home.

💰 Master the art of the deal 💰

Master the art of the deal with a economic trading system that reacts to you—deal with characters who have their own preferences and biases, navigate in game events that affect prices, and level up Jimmy’s skills to make each trade count. Outwit street-savvy NPCs, build your reputation, and prove that you have what it takes to climb to the top.
