About this site
An incremental game by Frank Lantz that starts with a single button and ends somewhere much stranger. What begins as small-business bookkeeping slowly turns into a story about optimisation gone too far.
When to open it
Set aside a while: this one easily runs past 15 minutes. It works on phones as well as computers, and it's silent, so it's safe at work or in class. Best for long afternoons and idle play.
