With much inspiration from speculative and science fiction, it&apos;s in the <em>how <\/em>CorpoNation puts players in its world that it feels like a stellar work of interactive fiction.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Because really CorpoNation is a collection of games. There&apos;s your sorting job in the company&apos;s genome sector, moving genetic samples of unknown origin into corresponding pneumatic tubes of unknown destination. Sort by shape, description, number, or pattern. Memorize their variants. Remember your manager\u2019s latest directives. The more you can move in the shift, the more you\u2019ll earn. You need those credits to pay rent. Worse, you\u2019ll get rebuked in your performance review if you\u2019re merely satisfactory.<\/p>\n<p>Then there are the &#8220;state-sanctioned&#8221; games on your Windows 95-era desktop\u2014a pointedly antiquated UI that says something about the world. Ultimate Ringo Fighters is a comically monetized game complete with a unique currency (crystals, of course) you can use your actual credits to buy. It has seasons, daily quests and log-on bonuses, endless cosmetics, absolutely broken pay to win mechanics, and very little actual gameplay. Through character writing it becomes a pointed commentary on how games have a role in placating exploited workers while further exploiting them.<\/p>\n<p>And after my first promotion I also unlocked (or, I was granted access to) solitaire. I was told it\u2019s to help with my dexterity and make me a better worker, which is supposed to motivate me to play it. The spam emails about not playing it are also supposed to do that. And it\u2019s really just your sorting job, but with cards\u2014a work sim game with all the alienation still attached.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout\" data-bordeaux-image-check >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:1920px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"Vnw5weSpKv5U7QnZzVDyf\" name=\"corponation3.png\" alt=\"CorpoNation\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/corponation-combines-silly-minigames-and-sharp-writing-into-a-sorry-to-bother-you-style-farce-about-life-in-2024.png\" mos=\"\" align=\"middle\" fullscreen=\"1\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" class=\"expandable\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption itemprop=\"caption description\" class=\" inline-layout\"><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Canteen)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>But there are all these other systems that say so much about propaganda, surveillance, and solidarity. I <em>know<\/em> I\u2019m being monitored. I was told I answered an anonymous survey question wrong. My state-mandated social cluster keeps changing because people get reassigned for breaking rules. I could report them through the app on my computer, but I haven\u2019t. I got reprimanded for having some paraphernalia this union syndicate called Synthesis left for me. They found it in my room while I was at work.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>So I took Synthesis\u2019 offer, and now I have a contraband phone with forums and messages and something like Venmo. And I can choose to take on assignments they ask of me, which usually hamper my workday and make getting promoted harder, but I do want to know what these samples are, what they\u2019re being used for, where they took Ash.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>And really, I could keep going on about all the little touches. There\u2019s a synergy to all these systems and games that come together to really put players in the rhythm of a work day, and it\u2019s all held together by its prose. The snarky forums posts, terminally online coworkers in your DMs, managerial rebukes in your inbox, and, my favorite, the news. The news app on the desktop is a collage of condescending headlines from the New Yorker or Atlantic. It\u2019s not just the out-of-touch pretension of the opinion sections, though.
