Remember that game you weren't supposed to be playing in school? Token Wars™ is its unhinged spiritual successor — rebuilt for the meme economy, the debt spiral, and the eternal hope that this time you'll actually make it. Buy low. Sell high. Borrow money you can't afford. Get fired by your manager. Party too hard. Lose everything. Do it again. No financial advice. No guarantees. Definitely no refunds. NGMI has never been this fun.
