养崽游戏

A strange app appeared on my phone, and no matter what I did, I couldn’t uninstall it.

When I opened it, a simple chibi-style interface popped up, showing a small black-haired character crouching in a shabby wooden hut, trembling.

In the upper right corner, there was a conspicuously large “Top Up” button. It was obvious that this game was designed to exploit players’ sympathy and trick them into spending money.

Hah! Joke’s on them—I can’t even support myself, and they expect me to raise this guy?

Just as I was about to exit, the little character rolled its eyes and flopped its tiny carrot-sized legs like it was about to die in the next second.

Fine, I’ll top up six yuan. But no more than that!
