About the Game

Definitely a Unicorn is a co-op startup management sim where you and your friends try to turn a rough idea into a successful tech company. Make decisions together, argue over priorities, survive deadlines, handle crises, and push the business forward before burnout, chaos, and your own brilliant mistakes catch up with you.

What to expect:

  • Co-op startup chaos
    Every player is a co-founder. Share responsibility, react to events, and make calls before someone else beats you to it.

  • Pitches, investors, and deadlines
    Prepare for key meetings, impress investors, and deal with high-pressure moments that can shape your company’s future.

  • Goals, epics, and tasks
    Break down big goals into manageable work, assign tickets to the right people, and try to keep the plan together before everything goes sideways again.

  • Roles, team, and project knowledge
    Every employee brings different strengths, and the people who know the product best can make or break your momentum.

  • Office life and controlled failure
    Burnout, broken coffee machines, strange events, and constant trade-offs are all part of everyday startup life, where things rarely go according to plan.

Build your team, survive the chaos, and prove your project is more than just another disaster in the making.
