10 itemsAbout the Game
In a future that seems perfectly optimized,
there’s no need to worry about food, housing, or employment.
The company provides everything — and expects everything in return.Work has been gamified: complete tasks, earn points, unlock titles.
Life is orderly, uneventful, and quietly consuming.
Until one day, a strange popup interrupts the routine:
"Are you truly happy?"
An invitation from a group calling itself the Work Life Balance Fellowship.
From that moment on, something begins to unravel.
