The design goal
Jason Fitch has thirty days to make an impression. The work arrives faster than it leaves. His phone keeps ringing. Somewhere between the overdue file, the client call and the weekend laundry, he still has people to see and a body to look after.
Decide what gets your time
My Perfect Internship is a satirical narrative management game. Handle legal assignments and office conversations, take on short work mini-games, and balance professional ambition with health, relationships and rest. Your choices shape Jason’s review and the life that follows it.
What this playtest is for
I would like feedback on whether choices and their costs are clear, how the month feels to play, where tasks become repetitive, and whether the relationships and endings follow naturally from your decisions.
