Pawn Shop Together

Your family's shop. Your rules. Your friends behind the counter.

Uncle Sal has run the pawn shop on Avenue A since 1978. Now he's handed the keys to you and your cousins Gina and Vinnie. Roll up the shutter, flip the sign to OPEN and find out who walks through the door.

Haggle like a pro

• Every seller has a story and a price in mind. Read their mood, make an offer, and meet in the middle or walk away.
  
• Inspect every item. Point out scratches, missing papers and faded signatures to talk the price down.
  
• Not everything is what it seems. Catch the replicas before they catch you.

Loans, flips and big tickets

• Buy outright or hand out pawn loans. Some customers come back to pay them off.
  
• Price your stock, fill the shelves and the showcase, and ring up buyers at the register.
  
• Hunt for the big flip: a diamond ring, a vintage guitar or a collector's pocket watch.

Better with friends

• Play solo or in online co-op for 1-4 players.
  
• One works the counter, one restocks, one handles the register, and somebody has to feed the pigeons on the roof.

A living corner of New York

• Busy sidewalks, yellow cabs, a hot dog cart on the corner and regulars with their own stories.
  
• Golden afternoons, neon dusks and rainy days on the avenue.
  
• Three story days with the family, then open-ended free play. Grow your shop's level and reputation day after day.
