About the Game

Welcome to Innovality, the leading startup in the innovation market! As a futur team member, you must take part in this revolutionary e-learning experience to develop your 2.0 thinker mindset. This game will provide you with all the knowledge you need to join the Great Innovality Family.

Very Unserious Game is a short narrative game (around twenty minutes), playable with just a mouse.

As a parody of serious games and a satire of the wonderful world of business, this game takes you through an interview like no other to join Innovality, an innovation startup that innovates (well... in theory).

Through a series of absurd e-learning quizzes and situations as familiar as they are uncomfortable, you’ll discover the joys of corporate jargon, vague objectives, and "inspiring" company values.

MAIN FEATURES

  • Exclusive quizzes, born from intensive brainstorming sessions between experts in value creation, holistic management, and strategic fun.

  • A disruptive pedagogy, co-created in an agile mode by a cross-functional innovation team focused on implicit knowledge.

  • Growth-oriented feedback, designed to turn every mistake into a lever for progress.

  • An authentic immersion in company culture, blending vertical storytelling, team synergy, and KPI-compatible benevolence.

  • Game mechanics inspired by the best practices in managerial gamification, validated by PowerPoint slides with high narrative value.

Trigger warning: This game contains scenes of workplace harassment/violence. While the goal is to expose them, these scenes may offend your sensibilities.
