Games Like Open Headcount: A Corporate-Hell Roguelike

The only way out is up.

Open Headcount is a corporate-hell roguelike auto-battler where you don't do the work, you assign it. Hire a disposable worker, kit them out with whatever's lying around the office, and send them up through the floors of Limbo Corp. 

Assign the Work

Each shift, three job postings land on your desk: hostile work environments, high-visibility projects, hostile workplaces, and more. Pick one and dispatch your new hire through countless rooms in retail, corporate, and other work environments. The combat runs itself; the management is on you.

Build Their Loadout

Issue your hire the necessities of corporate life — red staplers, golden parachutes, glass ceilings, compound interest, toxic office plants — and hunt for the combos that break the whole thing wide open. Every item has triggers; the right stack turns a sensible loadout into an unkillable synergy engine. Bank their Overtime, snowball their stats, and most importantly let the numbers go up.

Send Them Up the Ladder

Limbo Corp is a tower, and every floor above you is worse than the last: the retail floor, the open-plan office, the C-suite, and whatever runs things at the top. Push your hire through a bestiary of corporate monsters: Karens, Time Thieves, and other monstrosities seen in a work day. The company motto is simple: the only way out is up.
