I failed but it's good. I see some choices are funny cuz of how accurate it is in real life. Really nice concept, great work.

interesting concept kind of reminds me of the game "reigns", could use a bit more polish though. adding more visual effects and animations, also remove or simplify some of the texts since it can feel a bit overwhelming ദ്ദി(˵ •̀ ᴗ - ˵ ) ✧

Simple game but still enjoyable. I really took my time on every day and tried to think about the risks. It fits the theme and the prerequisite well. Especially the rng, it controls what you should do each day.  Spending a lot of money to greasing palms seems like a good strategy, especially if what you are betting on will give money back aswell. I like the ability to get too bankrupt aswell, you could expand this mechanic by maybe adding the functionality of taking loans that you have to pay by a certain day or something. 

I would like some more polish like music and maybe some variety on the visuals. Different cards or some particles when different things happen. In a way this reminds of Papers please.  I think there could be some people in the background acting out a scenario somewhat. Or maybe having some scenarios be presented in a "newspaper" format. The sound added a lot to the game, it was really satisfying hearing the sound it made when a roll succeeded.  

Some bugs(I'm sure you already know all of these):
I tried posting images but for some reason itch would not let me.

This card does not have any cost but it certainly has because I have failed it twice

Some text wont fit the cards

The grease palms does not update UI directly but instead on the next card

I think I saw a similar bug with the fortune but couldn't repeat it, it felt like I had one fortune more than I was supposed to at one time.

Nice game! I think you have a solid idea if you want to take it further.
