Don't Get Caught

In "Don't Get Caught," the office is your playground, with high stakes. As an employee, you will receive tasks to either slack off and undermine the company or to improve its performance. Every action influences the company's overall standing, directly impacting whether the boss remains employed or gets the boot by day's end.

Boss

The boss isn't just a figurehead; they can assign roles, call meetings, and even fire employees they suspect of misconduct.

Worker

Choose to discreetly derail the company's success or work earnestly to improve it, all while avoiding detection. Your collective actions with colleagues determine the company's performance and the boss's career trajectory.
