About the Game

You don't know what FOMO is.

It’s a seed that will explode in 400 days: after the countdown hits 0, it will change into a completely different game via an update and its price will increase by a x100 factor. FOREVER.

Also, it won't feature any discounts ever, before or after the release, so don't bother wishlisting it.

Whether you buy or not, you're already playing.

Key Features & Gameplay:

  • Genre: A real-time, passive conceptual experiment and social commentary on digital scarcity.

  • Mechanics: A persistent, real-world 400-day countdown timer that tracks time even when the application is closed.

  • Gameplay: Interaction is minimal and psychological. Progression is bound strictly to the passage of time.

  • Objective: Observe, endure, or participate. Your choices regarding your entry point shape your role in the overall experiment.
