Idle Gambler: Vegas Vermin Edition

The house always wins. Tonight, you are the house.

You arrive in Vegas with pocket change, an exterminator's patience, and a terrible idea. Squash roaches for seed money, feed your winnings into a cursed slot machine, and turn every questionable profit into a growing casino empire.

Idle Gambler: Vegas Vermin Edition is a compact, portrait-friendly incremental game about climbing from alleyway pest control to supernatural finance. Every district offers a new way to earn, spend, automate, or risk your fictional fortune.
