They Don't Want You To Work
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android
This is a game designed to be played throughout your workday/session if you are someone who works at a desk. They do not want you to work. They want you to play with Them, and build Them a nice city to live in. You should do what they ask.
The items needed are the kind frequently found at desks, including paper clips, sticky notes, notebooks, business cards, and your smartphone or computer, however, expect more updates with more games using other workstation items.
If you have a request for an item to be made into a mini-game for this - please let me know in a comment or by email at superdillin@gmail.com and I will include one in the update!

started playing this during the slowest friday of my life and absolutely turned my afternoon around! instead of wallowing in agony i got to spend time making a cool little house for my new deskmate. ironically i showed it to my supervisor and she loved it. one million stars out of ten thank u for saving my life during this shift!!!
this is the greatest comment I have EVER gotten - thank you for taking the time to actually share this!!!!!
I'm in the middle of playing this right now, and it successfully kept me safely employed for another hour. So... thank you?
that's literally what it's here for!!!! I'm so glad. Don't Work!!!
This game has been fantastic for breaking my addiction to doom scrolling twitter during mental breaks at work. Instead of getting bogged down in the latest bad news, I've been building little dice stacks and drawing all over my sticky notes with my imaginary gremlins. 10/10 highly recommend it!
This makes me so deeply happy, thank you for enjoying the game and thank you even more for taking time to write this
I loved this game. If you are looking for more game suggestions, how about a game that uses colored pens, pencils, and/or markers.
