About the Game

100% human made, No AI used.

What if the afterlife wasn’t a divine judgment, but a mid-level corporate audit?

Step into the cubicle of a soul-processing clerk for a corporate empire in the clouds. Your job is to decide who goes to Heaven or Hell by referencing "Life Documents of the Dead" against a rigid, nonsensical corporate handbook.

Become the judge of the afterlife. Review the life stories, daily habits, and digital footprints of the departed to decide their eternal fate: Heaven or Hell. A soul may seem destined for Heaven until a single, buried memory shifts the scales entirely. Don’t rely solely on the records; summon testimonials from friends, family, and colleagues to uncover the secrets they took to the grave. The soul will try to defend themselves, but do you believe them ?

The company doesn't care if a soul was a saint or a sinner, they only care if you follow the rulebook. However, Total obedience of the Rulebook means inevitably sending terrible people to Heaven, causing chaos in the living world upon their rebirth.

The Boss reviews every decision you make to ensure you are strictly following company laws. This determines your Job Performance Score, which carries significant consequences. If your score drops, your salary is docked, directly affecting your family’s well-being. You will receive regular letters from home detailing their struggles and how your financial support could improve their lives.

Keep an eye on the clock, the landlord will contact you if the rent is overdue, threatening to evict your family if payments aren't made on time. If your performance score falls too low, the Boss may suspect sabotage and reduce the time allowed per file, increasing your pressure and the risk of fatal mistakes.

Company protocols are strictly mechanical and ignore moral factors. You must use your own judgment to counter these rules when necessary. Following the "Company Way" too strictly risks destabilizing the mortal realm; sending undeserving souls to Heaven causes them to be reborn as agents of chaos, spiking the global death rate and violence. This not only increases your daily workload but also earns the hate of your colleagues, who may actively try to sabotage your performance.

Balance the needs of your boss, family, and the planet. Every decision counts. Can you uphold the equilibrium, or let it break?
