The Idles

Is your team dragging its heels? Productivity in the pits? Not anymore! Say Hello to Maxwell — The Supercomputer of Tomorrow, Today! From the fine folks at Moloch Industries, this marvel of modern engineering keeps your team on track and sends your company’s productivity soaring to brand-new heights! It’s simple, it’s effective, and it’s 100% guaranteed to boost results. The top companies in the country are already on board — what are you waiting for? The Idles is an asymmetric card game for two players. Set in a nostalgic 1950s America with dystopian undertones, the game pits a mysterious supercomputer — obsessed with maximizing corporate productivity — against a lowly employee struggling under that very weight. The supercomputer, Maxwell, will line up his programs and defend them with supervisors until they can be executed successfully...by any means necessary! Meanwhile, the employee must constantly prove their worth by grinding out productivity awards, or else risk being branded an idler. And bad things are said to happen to those who idle. Better not find out!
