Puzzle Company
You don’t solve puzzles — you help build them, test them, and handle all the weird stuff that comes with the job. Missions come to you, you head out, get it done, earn cash, unlock gear. It’s a job. Sort of.

🏢 Welcome to Puzzle Company — Where No One Knows What They're Doing
You’re not here to solve puzzles. You’re here to make sure they exist, function (barely), and look decent enough to fool whoever ends up playing them. At Puzzle Company, you're just another underpaid, over-tasked employee doing the weird, messy, and often ridiculous behind-the-scenes jobs nobody else wants to touch.
Your missions vary — testing puzzle rooms, fixing broken contraptions, gathering bizarre components, or just pushing buttons and hoping for the best. Everything starts from your personal room. Missions are delivered straight to your terminal. You hop into the elevator, get the job done (somehow), and hope management doesn’t notice how badly you did it.
💼 Rise Through the Ranks (While Questioning Your Life Choices)
Each mission earns you cash and XP. Use your money to buy new outfits, unlock characters, and decorate your very own sad little room — because nothing says "promotion material" like a lava lamp and some fancy carpet.
Climbing the corporate ladder has never been this weird. Or this poorly organized.
🧩 This Is Not a Puzzle Game
Let’s be clear — you’re not the puzzle solver. You’re the grunt doing the prep work. Sometimes that means testing a finished room, other times it’s helping build or supply one. But don’t worry — it’ll still challenge your braincells (or what’s left of them).
Rooms vary in complexity, layout, and objectives. You can take your time... or completely fumble your way through. No pressure.
👥 Solo or Co-op — Suffer Alone or Together
You can go it alone, or rope in a friend to share the confusion. Either way, someone’s getting blamed when things go sideways. Built-in voice chat means coordination — or full-volume panic — is just a button away.
🎨 Look Busy, Stay Stylish
From weird outfits to complete room makeovers, customization is how you prove you’re taking this nonsense seriously. Earn gear, unlock new looks, and turn your starter hovel into something almost livable.
📈 Prove You're Slightly Less Useless
Level up, get promoted, and make your way up the internal rank system.
No one knows how it works. Nobody cares. But hey — progress is progress.
