About this game

Welcome to your new job at Apex Holdings Conglomerate!

Sit at your Computer, annotate datasets to train our next-generation AI, and get paid. It’s the ultimate work-from-home dream. You set your own hours, order your favorite takeout, and scrape together enough cash to survive another week.

But as the deadlines loom and the night stretches on, the work gets... weird. And that creeping feeling of being watched? It’s becoming impossible to ignore.

You need the money. But is the paycheck worth your life?

Key Features

  • The Daily Grind: Complete fast-paced, focus-intensive data annotation tasks to earn your paycheck. The more accurate you are, the more cash you rake in. Just don't let your eyes glaze over.

  • Life & Resource Management: Don't die starving! Use your hard-earned wages to order food delivery, pay your bills, and keep the lights on. Balance your budget against your basic human needs, but remember: the delivery driver isn't the only thing knocking at your door.

  • Paranoia-Inducing Multitasking: Manage your attention between the glowing monitor and the dark corners of your room. Listen for footsteps, check your apartment's blind spots, and secure your workspace. If you focus too heavily on the screen for too long, you won't see what's creeping up behind you until it's too late.

  • Rest to Repeat: Survive your shift and crawl into bed to rest your heavy eyes. Manage your exhaustion levels carefully because tomorrow is another annotation day, and the algorithm is always hungry for more data.
