01

What you actually do each shift

Summary
In short Your job is to work the border gate through a series of shifts, most of which feel routine until they suddenly are not.

Each session puts you on duty at a quarantine border gate. Shifts can play out normally, but others turn strange and unsettling. The core question the game asks is whether you can survive every night without getting fired.

  • Setting a border checkpoint inspired by a real quarantine zone
  • Goal get through all the nights without failing out
