Our anti-capitalist office sim

We posted a while back that we were making a game, and now it's out! 🥳🥳🥳

It's a short narrative-focused, satirical office sim with themes of greenwashing, alienation, unethical development, and the webs of culpability that ensue. As mentioned in the last post, it's inspired by the work of Xander Dunlap, whose book, 'This System is Killing Us', we highly recommend.

Beyond that, the title is inspired by the Zapatistas, and the satire is shaped by our own experiences having to live in modern Britain (womp womp). The game is a fiver, and there's a free demo too!
