Downer Management

Autobattler. Hostile org chart.

Hire difficult employees, seat them in the correct wrong place, and let three-desk office combat resolve what HR calls a workplace culture opportunity.

Windows / macOS / Linux Singleplayer Strategy RPG Autobattler
Personnel File

Manage Downward. File Upward.

Downer Management is a 3-vs-3 autobattler set inside a corporate purgatory where every conflict becomes paperwork. Employees fight automatically by exchanging memos, audits, cold calls, clipboard blows, and deeply unnecessary motions.

The part you control is uglier: who sits where, who waits on the bench, which department gets unlocked next, and how much damage your dignity can absorb before the quarterly review.

Operating Specifications

What Is New In the Filing

Item 01

Three-desk autobattles

You do not steer the fight directly. You promote, demote, bench, and arrange three employees across Upper, Middle, and Entry desks.

Item 02

Department auras

HR heals, IT disrupts, Legal buries enemies in paper, and Marketing makes everything worse on purpose. Your bench is a second battlefield.

Item 03

Pick your last job

Start as a former department head, choose two secondary divisions, and turn the departments you skipped into buildings to unlock.

Item 04

Personnel with baggage

Employees arrive with stats, roles, traits, portraits, histories, and just enough personality to make replacement administratively complicated.

Item 05

Office side systems

Recruit, train, decorate, file reviews, tune your department theme, and investigate side modes that should have required a meeting first.

Item 06

A complete filing

Singleplayer, no microtransactions, no live-service hooks. Parking Lot is planned as a free post-launch DLC filing.
