Scarecrow's Debt

🎃 Pay what the field asks.

Ashgrove, Nebraska — October 1931. Your grandfather's farm is yours now: the house, the field… and the scarecrow on the hill. In his will, one line was underlined three times: “Pay what the field asks.”

Scarecrow's Debt is an idle horror game. Harvest a cursed pumpkin field, hire help you shouldn't trust, scare off the crows at night — and when the Scarecrow comes to collect its tithe, decide: pay, refuse, or offer something else. Every choice is written in the ledger.

Features

• 🌾 Idle / incremental — 8 buildings, from a Pumpkin Vine to the Thing Under the Field, 40+ upgrades and offline progress.

• 📜 7 tithes, 5 endings (one secret) — your choices decide how the debt is settled.

🇧🇷 Em português

Ashgrove, Nebraska — outubro de 1931. A fazenda do seu avô agora é sua: a casa, o campo… e o espantalho no morro. No testamento, uma linha estava sublinhada três vezes: “Pague o que o campo pedir.”

Scarecrow's Debt é um idle de terror: colha abóboras num campo amaldiçoado, espante os corvos à noite e, quando o Espantalho cobrar o dízimo, decida — pagar, recusar ou oferecer outra coisa. 7 dízimos, 5 finais (um secreto), prestígio “Queimar o Campo” e o diário do seu avô para descobrir. Demo grátis no navegador; versão completa por US$2 em arquivo HTML único (PC e Android, offline).
