Office Tycoon: Work Stories

So here's the deal. You're the boss of an office now. Congratulations. Nobody voted for you. HR is suspicious. The intern keeps calling you "dude." But the corner office? That's yours. Office Tycoon is an idle office tycoon game about running the kind of workplace you've always wanted — one where the coffee machine works, the printer doesn't jam, and you can fire Gary whenever you want. Gary knows what he did. HOW IT WORKS You start with a desk, a chair, and a dream. Also one employee. He seems fine. He's not. But you'll figure that out in about ten minutes. From there, you hire people. You fire people. You upgrade their computers so they stop using "the system's slow today" as an excuse. You build new departments. You expand to new floors. Slowly, beautifully, you turn a sad little startup into a corporate empire that your ex will see on LinkedIn and regret everything. The money comes in even when you close the app. You know — like a real executive. Go to your actual 9 to 5 job. Suffer through a meeting that should've been an email. Come back. Stacks of cash waiting. It's called leadership. THE PEOPLE YOU'LL MEET Every office has its characters. So does this one. There's the intern who is way too excited about everything. The senior employee who's been here for 15 years and will tell you about it. The guy who microwaves fish. The woman who owns the office. The guy who thinks he owns the office. Karen from accounting. There's always a Karen. You will love them. You will also fire some of them. This is business. FEATURES, OR WHATEVER - Idle tycoon gameplay, because you have a life (allegedly) - Hire and fire to build your dream team, or at least a functional one - Upgrade everything — desks, departments, the suspicious break room - Unlock new floors as your company tycoon empire grows - Story events that are somehow both ridiculous and relatable - A prestige system for players who want to restart and dominate again - Offline earnings, because Wi-Fi is a human right but not always available - Live events with themed offices (yes, there's a Halloween one) WHY THIS ISN'T JUST ANOTHER OFFICE SIMULATOR Most office simulator and business simulator games play it safe. Spreadsheets. Charts. The crushing weight of late-stage capitalism rendered in low-poly 3D. We went a different direction. Office Tycoon is a workplace simulation game that knows it's a game. The art is bold American cartoon. The jokes are in every corner. The characters are people you've worked with, except now you can assign them to the IT department as revenge. Think of it as a fun office simulator made by people who have had jobs. Real, terrible, wonderful jobs. One last thing. The office is empty. The intern is asking for "guidance." Someone already used the last of the creamer. Your dream firm is waiting.
