Work Till Die

About this game

You spend half your life on the road.
The other half at a job you don’t like, earning next to nothing.
You live knee-deep in filth, alone, in a rented apartment.
Why do you even bother?

Some days when everything turns into complete madness.
This is one of those days.
Or maybe you’ve finally lost your mind, and this is how it’s going to be from now on.

You could’ve been a mathematician, a physicist, a chemist.
Maybe a pilot. Or a miner, at the very least.
Someone useful. Someone needed.
But you became a humanities major. Congratulations.

This isn’t a game, it’s a cry for help.
Help me.
