I Know a Guy: Shady Life Simulator

About This Game

You owe a dangerous, mysterious mafia a serious amount of money. They don’t call. They don’t warn you. They kidnap you and make it clear: work it off, or else. Run your pizza shop, take on shady favors, and get to know the people of Hobarey Town while doing the mafia’s dirty work. Learn who to trust, who to use, and who to avoid.

Maybe you’ll pay off your debt. Maybe you’ll build the right connections to start a new life.

EXPERIENCE DUAL-LIFE

Manage a pizza shop up front while running illegal jobs out back. Keep both sides operating without drawing police attention or blowing your cover.

TAKE SHADY JOBS

Complete illegal favors for NPCs, including cleaning bloody clothes, ordering restricted items from the dark web, disposing of evidence, and even burning bodies in your own oven. Every job increases payout, risk, and police attention.

BUILD YOUR REPUTATION

Build a strong cover by becoming the best pizza shop in town while separately earning trust in the shady underworld. Each side progresses on its own, unlocking different jobs, tools, and risks.

UPGRADE YOUR OPERATION

Upgrade your kitchen, hidden workstations, and equipment. Larger setups allow faster production, riskier jobs, and higher payouts.

DEAL WITH WEIRD NPCs

Interact with dozens of hand-crafted NPCs, each with their own stories, personalities, and ongoing problems that unfold over time.

PLAY TOGETHER

Play alone or team up with up to four players online. Split tasks, run both sides of the business together, and deal with the chaos as a group. Both offline and co-op mode updated with 1.0.
