The Setup
You Work at McDowell's. You Hate It.
You're a broke employee at McDowell's — not McDonald's, that's a completely different restaurant — and the only thing standing between you and financial freedom is your phone, a crypto trading app, and approximately zero market knowledge.
You've got 30 days and $2,000 in starting cash. You also have $10,000 in debt to Klarnáh — a loan service that charges interest daily and has absolutely no sympathy for your situation. Every day you don't pay it off, it gets worse. Classic.
Your goal: trade your way out of this mess before the clock runs out. Buy low. Sell high. Try not to get liquidated. Simple in theory. Absolutely brutal in practice.
The Market
Real Coins. Fake Exchanges. Very Real Pain.
Token Wars pulls real cryptocurrency prices from the market as your baseline, then lets them run wild from there. BTC, ETH, SOL, AVAX, DOGE — they're all here, priced like the real thing, swinging like the real thing.
You'll trade across a network of fictional exchanges — CoinCase, Bronance, Krakon, ByByte, DarkPool, SatoshiX — each with their own prices. Arbitrage is real. Timing is everything. And the market will absolutely spike right after you sell and crater right after you buy, because that's just how it works.

The Characters
People Who Make Your Life Harder
Lumberg is your manager. He throws parties you didn't ask to attend, shows up at the worst times, and occasionally catches you trading on the clock. He is not your friend.
The broader crypto world is populated by Leon Skum, whose tweets move markets. Mikey Saylor Moon, who bought BTC with company money and would do it again. Cathie Wouldn't, who has opinions. These are all fictional characters. Any resemblance to real persons, living or extremely online, is purely coincidental.
The debt collector is Klarnáh. She doesn't care how your run went.
Why It's Brutal
The Clock. The Debt. The Margin.
Every session you advance the clock. Every night you sleep, Klarnáh charges margin interest — starting at 15% daily on your debt and climbing to 20% if you let it drag past Day 10. That $10,000 hole gets deeper fast if you ignore it.
You can stake USDC for a steady 4% daily yield. You can pick up extra shifts at McDowell's when you're dead broke. You can try to time an ICO card for a 7x payout — or watch it rug and take 80% of everything you own with it. These are your options. Choose wisely.
There's a reason the end-of-run screen has tiers. REKT is a tier. So is SIGMA. The gap between them is enormous and entirely your fault.
Meta Progression
Get Better. Go Longer. Lose Differently.
Between runs you spend KR$H — the game's meta-currency — on permanent upgrades called Vibes. Longer run lengths. Better insider tips. Reduced margin interest. Higher staking yield. More starting cash.
A default run is 15 days. Max it out and you're playing 40-day Unlimited runs where the stakes, the swings, and the potential scores are in a completely different league. The leaderboard is global. Your name is up there for everyone to see.

Token Wars is a work of fiction. All exchanges, characters, and financial institutions depicted are fictional. This is a game, not financial advice. Cryptocurrency trading involves substantial risk of loss. Do not trade crypto because a mobile game made it look fun. Krash Forge is not responsible for your portfolio. Don't sue us, bro.
