Inhuman Resources: A Literary Machination

Inhuman Resources: A Literary Machination is a narrative horror adventure where players navigate a corrupt corporation through branching choices, hidden puzzles, and hundreds of possible story paths toward multiple different endings.

The story follows an employee inside SMYRNACORP, a corporation built on conspiracy and moral compromise. Choices shape a branching plot with hundreds of possible routes, and completing certain puzzles or reaching specific skill levels unlocks hidden story paths that other players might never see. Short stories written by outside authors are folded into the game world, giving side texts and found documents their own distinct voices.

Progress comes from raising a character profile through choices and collected items rather than combat. Players search offices for confidential data, piece together riddles, and make decisions that quietly build toward one of several distinct endings. Every playthrough emphasizes reading and reasoning over reflexes, closer to story-driven fiction than a traditional action game, with dark humor running alongside its darker corporate horror.
