Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
Every market we collect.
Charts
Each storefront's own chart, in its own country — the closest public signal to sales where none is published. A country missing from a list is one we don't collect there, not one where the game doesn't chart.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 60.14/day in the week to Sep 11 → 125.33/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 25 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 10 places towards #1, and the 2,413 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.
About
Bills Must Be Paid is an active incremental game about paying your bills by smashing piggy banks.
Smashing costs stamina. When your hand is getting tired the run is over.
Bills show up. If you ignore them, bankruptcy will be your destiny. Pay them off to unlock perks that help you pay back your bills even faster.
Paying bills also gives you legacy points which you can spend on rings and bracelets to upgrade your hand after declaring bankruptcy.
New types to discover. Some run away, some are too lazy to move, and others carry all the black money you never had :P...
Piggies spawn random loot
You never know which one is holding the most, or do you?
A skill tree with multiple paths. Improve your grip strength, get addicted to caffeine, hit the gym, pump up your wrist, get more lucky, unlock abilities like rock rain, electrify your hammer, and more.
Unlock different types of hammer. Some have higher crit chance and smaller radius, while others are super fast with big radius and less damage. Choose the one that better fits your own playstyle.

What a silly little game lol great fun, good price point for what you get. At one point I was ~$1500 short of the quota so I had to try the double or nothing, and I have never been so stressed out about a coin flip in my life. My first run and my fifth run were complete night and day considering the lightning fast progression, I couldn't believe the stark difference that the rings and coins make lol. I appreciate games like Balatro or Vampire Survivors for being what they are, but I like this game because it has a definitive "the end" moment to put a nice little bow on it. Letting you keep going after the end to finish buying up any missing perks is Giga Chad behavior from the devs. Not that I would mind running the game again but still, how thoughtful.

ブタさん貯金箱を割りまくる短篇インクリメンタル。 いわゆる『Nodebuster』系で、画面上でちょこまか動いているブタさん貯金箱(なぜブタさん貯金箱が生きて動いているのかは不明)をハンマーなどでガンガン叩いて割り、中からこぼれおちたお金や宝石を貯めてスキルツリーを伸ばしつつ、都度課せられた借金を返済していく。つまりはフェイズ毎に目標点数を稼ぐ必要があるわけで、ここらへんは『Balatro』っぽくもある。 短篇インクリメンタルとフェイズ毎の目標点数はあるようでなかった組み合わせで、これにより基本的に虚無でだらけがちクリック作業(本作は最初からクリックする必要はない)にハリを与えてくれる。 というのも、借金返済もパワーアップもおなじ財布のマネーから出すことになるので、「パワーアップしときたいけれど、そろそろ返済期日なので出費を抑えとこう」などといった出費のバランスを取ることがつねに求められてくる。この塩梅は電卓を必要とするほどシビアなわけではないけれど、プレイに適度な緊張感を与えてくれる。 ラン毎に諦めるタイミングもやっててハッキリわかるようになっていて、ストレスがあまりない。 で、返済できなかったら自己破産を申請して、それまで返済してきたマネーに応じてトークンをもらえ、そのトークンでメタ強化を行える。メタ強化自体は数回程度のやりなおししか想定していないためか、そこまでバリエーションに富んではいないのだけれど、ランで粘れば粘るほど目に見えてトークンが増える仕組みなので、ちゃんと気持ちよくなれる。 そう、全体的にさまざまな箇所の線引きが明瞭で、気持ちがよい。 貯金箱をたたき割るときの音ももちろん気持ちよくなれるようになっていて、ASMR感さえある。 これだけインクリメンタルにあふれる世の中でも、真に「もうちょっとだけやりたい」とおもわせてくれる中毒性をもったものは一握りだけだけれど、本作はその稀な作品のひとつだ。 手触りだけでいえば、インクリメンタルとしては今年の新作でも上位に入る一本なのではなかろうか。

This game is a waste of time, and not in a fun way. I know, most games are a waste of time, hell, all games are. But this game wastes your time in a way that makes you think "God, I wish this game was over already." It's just tedious repetition and the progression feels bland. The upgrade tree is uninteresting with lot's of tiny bonuses at high costs. There's the option to have a mob boss pay you money providing you pay him back. I usually use him to pay off the last bill so I can then enter the prestige with extra points gained. But honestly, even cheating the system, I wasn't having fun with it. Then there's this. You can gamble to increase your money. You can either flip a coin for RNG, or play the shell game, which if you've got a good eye, you can win every time.... Except one thing... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XPVZiNyL2r0 Get to around 18 seconds, you're not keeping up with that. The after image and the absurd speed, this is damn near epilepsy inducing. (Epilepsy warning on the video btw.) I recorded it and watched it frame by frame and it was still difficult to keep up with I got it done once, failed the second time. So I guess that's just another RNG except instead of 50/50 it's 33/33/33 You have better odds with the coin. So your only option is to play the actual game... Which is so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ boring. I do not understand why this game is overwhelmingly positive. Who's playing this and why? I was going to make it recommended, based on the fact that while I hate it, I might still have recommended it to others. But the shell game pissed me off so much that, NO, developer, screw you. This completely takes the piss. If it were doable with human eyes. Sure, It'd be a great way to cut the bulk of the game short. But you may has well just be rolling a dice. Back to hitting the pigs with the hammer, over and over and over and over and over and over again. Getting weaker again and again and again because you had to reset to buy a single ring that barely did anything. I did want to get all the achievements... but looking at this game pains me, even if I have something to watch at the same time, I struggle to look at this. You have to pay some attention to hit the pigs, that's fair, you should probably have games you have to pay attention to. But it's just uninteresting. It's like whack-a-mole but without the cotton candy, the wacky music and the family fun. It's just you, alone, playing a crap game to get the achievements. Then we come to the cost. Given how little of a game is here, I'd recommend against it if it were free. People who keep up with my reviews will know that. They'll also know I'm an incredibly negative person. I wish I weren't, I get the most joy out of doing positive reviews. I don't want to recommend people avoid something, where's the fun in that? If I can recommend a game that will make someone happy, I absolutely want to do that. Making people happy is amazing. But this game isn't going to do that. It's going to bore you. I don't want to make anyone bored. You shouldn't want to be bored. And spending money so you can be bored, is an even worse idea. Thanks for reading, or skipping to the end. Whether or not you agree with me, I hope you have a lovely day. Edit: Finally finished all the achievements. Time to never play this again. XD Was 5 episodes of Sabrina. (Teenage witch)
별로 재미없음... 시간은 다른거 틀어두고 하느라 이럼 깨지는 타격감이 좋은것도 아니고, 레벨 디자인이 좋은것도 아님
💥 ПОРОСЯЧЬЯ ТЕРАПЕВТИЧЕСКАЯ ВАКХАНАЛИЯ, от которой кайфуешь больше, чем от реальной зарплаты. За час успеваешь почувствовать себя Рокфеллером и Бомжом одновременно. Спасибо напёрсточнику, который разденет тебя быстрее, чем военком на медкомиссии. Пришлось тоже жульничать и использовать замедленную запись экрана. Вердикт: игра, которая разбивает не только копилки, но и все твои надежды на честный заработок. Это прекрасно. 🐷🔨😂 10 свинот из 10
I enjoyed it at first, but then it demonstrated that this has roguelite elements where you have to keep starting from the beginning. Even with the legacy points you get to unlock permanent upgrades in each run, it's still frustrating for me personally to have to re-do the exact same thing repeatedly.
Pura dopamina, este juego es un "must" si te gustan los incrementales. Bien balanceado, bien construido, concepto simple pero original, y muy, muy adictivo.
bit pricey for a total completion time of 3.5h. nice grpahics and fun gameplay tho. 3.5/5
Esse jogo é praticamente o Red Dead Redemption 2 dos porcos, uma obra prima, foram horas árduas ate a platina
