Games Like AI Office Idle: Night Shift

You run the night shift at an AI startup. The staff are language models with names like Llamba, Mistrial, Jemini, Clawed and Grokk. Jobs pour in all night. Your models work them, overheat, talk back, and keep earning while you sleep.

Night one has no staff. You click jobs on the board yourself until $10 buys a desk and a Llamba 1. Then the money buys more desks, version upgrades and stronger families: Llamba 1 climbs to 3.1, Clawed Haiku climbs to Opus. Swap a desk to a new family and you get 70% of the old model back.

Every model runs hot. Under 35 heat it works 55% faster. At 100 it throttles and stops. Click a model to cool it, or overclock it for a burst of speed and watch the gauge climb.

Every job rolls a rarity, Common up to Mythic, and a Mythic pays 45 times a Common. From Rare up the clock is running: finish late and you get only the base pay. Land a Legendary or a Mythic on time and it can pay Vision too.

Message one model or the whole office, typed or out loud. Each family takes it its own way. Praise speeds some up and goes straight to others' heads. A scolding makes some work harder. Learn who needs what.

Built for 40 to 100 hours. Your offices keep earning while you are away, up to 8 hours and longer with upgrades.

The free demo is the whole early game up to your first Pivot, about an hour and a half. Your save carries over to the full game. The Supporter Pack is an optional DLC: 3x speed from the start, two extra office skins and two extra robot looks. All of it can be earned in play, so nothing is locked behind it. The music is all by mister mello: fifteen songs, used with permission. It plays offline. Single player, no account, no ads, no data collection. Your save stays on your PC and in Steam Cloud. Smart chatter, an optional and experimental feature, runs a small AI model on your own computer and stays off unless you switch it on.
