PROFITS 2167: Planetary Resource Optimization & Freight Infrastructure Technician Simulator

Planetary Resource Optimization & Freight Infrastructure Technician Simulator 2167 is a short, high-pressure arcade train-driving game with tower defense and incremental elements. Deliver resources, defend your mining infrastructure, and chase ever-growing quotas under the relentless pressure of impossible deadlines and hostile fauna.

Most train games are chill and cozy. Most incremental games are casual clickers. PROFITS 2167 is neither.

This game will throw you into an increasingly demanding gameplay loop of manual train driving, resource management and constant decision-making, all set to a relentless techno soundtrack.

It's pretty short (around 4 hours to beat) but satisfying. It's inspired by the modern tech job market, shady startups, and the way people talk on LinkedIn.

Following the Collapse of States and the Rise of Sovereign Corporations after World War IV, monetary systems lost their meaning. The global economy fractured into a volatile market of corporate-issued tokens, with their value defined, inflated, and erased at the Executives’ will.

From that moment on, there were no citizens left on Earth - the Corporative Souvereignity has divided humanity into Assets, Stakeholders, and Executives.

By the year 2100, without regulatory control and driven by the Pure Profit Prophecy, LLM systems (Labor Liquidation Machines) had taken over most human jobs. The growing population was repurposed: billions were placed into managed stasis, sustained, and integrated into distributed computation networks as Human Resources.

After decades of automated job search, conducted while you slept in a corporate ark-datacenter silently drifting through the void of space, you are awakened by a system notification. You were granted the honour of a Job Offer for a Planetary Resource Optimization & Freight Infrastructure Technician position as a part of Profiterra Sovereign Group.

This is your last train ticket to becoming a Stakeholder instead of an Asset. You cannot refuse this opportunity.
