What players say
Players describe Loan Shark as a brief horror game about debt, taking about 30 minutes to an hour to finish. The story carries a clear message about predatory lending that feels integrated rather than preachy. Reviews consistently note the game's short length, and a few mention that its horror comes from a sense of helplessness rather than jump scares.
