Keep a roster alive
Hire strange little professionals, read their traits, and decide who is worth protecting before the building starts chewing through staff.
The Campaign
Run the Office. Clear the Building.
Downer Management is a bureaucratic autobattler about building a staff that can survive management. The office is your home base. The buildings are the climb. Every floor asks whether your roster has enough skill, spite, and remaining HP to keep going.
You decide who gets hired, who stands in front, who waits as backup, when to promote, when to demote, and when a casualty is simply the cost of doing business.
What You Do
Staff Up. Push Higher. File the Consequences.
Climb hostile buildings
Pick a target, clear floors, survive elevator fights, and push toward bosses who turn office policy into combat doctrine.
Manage the fight
Set active employees, keep backups ready, promote or demote at the right moment, and let the automatic battle prove whether your plan was legal.
Build around departments
HR, IT, Finance, Marketing, Operations, Customer Service, and more each bring their own stats, roles, skills, and liabilities.
Win permanent leverage
Clear buildings to earn badges, widen growth ceilings, and turn one desperate run into long-term corporate momentum.
Live with the file
Employees get hurt, improve, fail, return, or end up memorialized. The paperwork remembers what management would prefer to forget.
