In an era where AI is replacing humans, you play as the CEO of a cyberpunk internet company. Make critical decisions between hiring "carbon-based employees" and "AI employees"—every choice has a cost. Over-exploit your workers and they'll quit; go too hard on AI and the system might rebel.
45-90 minutes per run. Experience the moral struggle of a capitalist (or don't).
Key Features
15 Employees, Each With Their Own Issues
• Carbon-based staff: Slacker Xiao Wang, 996 Specialist, KPI Killer... each with unique skills and work states
• AI staff: Neural Ape, Code Hero, Fully Automated AI HR... more efficient but require continuous Token investment
• Each employee has 3 work animations—working, slacking, sleeping. You never know what they're doing.
Funding Round System—From Angel to IPO
• Experience the complete funding journey: Angel → Series A → Series B → Series C → Pre-IPO → IPO
• Each round requires preparation tasks and investor negotiations
• Preparation quality affects funding amount—Crude, Acceptable, Polished, or Viral?
• You can fake your data—but exposure is always a risk
Three Tech Trees, Each With A Price
• Hardware Upgrades: From TP-Link routers to Nvidia H100 clusters
• Corporate Culture: Enablement → OKR → 996 → PUA Masterclass (higher levels mean worse side effects)
• AI Evolution: AI Assistant → Full AI Workforce (moving too fast may trigger AI rebellion)
Competitors Are Watching You
• "Silicon Dream Tech" CEO Elon Ma is pushing through funding rounds in the background
• Fall behind and your valuation gets cut. Let satisfaction drop too low and your staff gets poached.
4 Endings—Which One Is Yours?
• Cyber Capitalist: Complete IPO
