Imperial Bureaucracy Hero [v0.3.31]

A visual novel set in the far and dark of the forlorn future. You’re not a heroic marine or imperial gardesman – you are a bureaucrat of a dying sci-fi regime. A mid-level servant of the paperwork and red tape it takes to run an empire of uncounted worlds, given the impossible task of fixing this faltering machine.

It’s your job to cut through that horrifying mess – resolve disputes, fix problems, listen to angry people. It’s not your job to have sex – but you’ll meet people from every walk of life in the vast Imperium. Lonely guards, bored scribes, women trying to swing your decisions or just to have some fun in their bleak lives.

Don’t grind! There is not a single moment of grinding. You’re a reasonably high-ranking official of the organization that runs everything – you don’t need money. Your word is better than money. There’s a reason some folks try and bribe you with sex and not fat stacks of cash.

Choose your traits! Are you a schizophrenic empath? A paranoid bureaucratic genius? A nihilistic manipulator? Try and do your job. Endure your horrible empire. Serve the Emperor. Explore the continent – trek across cities, delve into underworlds, listen to a song along the coast. Meet soldiers, workers, nobles, picked men and pilgrims – wanderers, gangsters, sinners, saints, scam artists and sad mothers. Become the hero or the villain in so many other stories, climb into bed with a dizzying variety of women –

Or just do your job and play literal Bureaucracy Simulator. You can do that. The sex is optional.
