A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Android

Videogames exist as a form of mass media that is created to take away attention from current-day issues and world problems. Just like any form of art, it can be used in order to promote ideas. This project exists not to forget about life, but to embrace it with full force. If you're brave enough to start questioning the world around you, dive into the story of a poor factory worker who got himself into trouble.  Follow his path and discover the true essence of reality. This is your Zugzwang.

  • Versions for Windows, MAC and Android are available.

It's about 1 hour long, so there is no need to rush. The main character's name is Sam if you don't want to type your own name.  Typing your own name is optional.

Install instructions

There is no music, so feel free to use anything you'll think fits. If you have no clue, just put on some 90s hip-hop beats, citypop or any macroblank playlist to play as the background music. My recommendation would be Mairiba - Gene's Streets (2021). 

Other than that, there is no rules, just play it as a normal VN. It's about 1 hour length, so there is no need to rush. Main character name is Sam if you don't want to type your own name.  Typing your own name is optional.
