About this game

**Winner of Excellence in Innovation by the International Mobile Gaming Awards**

Program little office workers to solve puzzles. Be a good employee! The machines are coming... for your job.

Human Resource Machine is a puzzle game for nerds. In each level, your boss gives you a job. Automate it by programming your little office worker. If you succeed, you'll be promoted up to the next level for another year of work in the vast office building. Congratulations!

Don't worry if you've never programmed before - programming is just puzzle solving. If you strip away all the 1's and 0's and scary squiggly brackets, programming is simple, logical, beautiful, and something that anyone can understand and have fun with! Are you already an expert? There will be extra challenges for you.

From the creators of World of Goo and Little Inferno. Have fun! Management is watching.

This is a delightful and addictive game that I already had on PC. Unfortunately, on the mobile version, the tiles are tiny and difficult to read. Also, the size & speed optimization challenges (which account for 90% of the gameplay) are harder to find in this version. Make sure you talk to the boss to see them - without them the biggest challenge is reading the tiny tiles!

This is actually a 5-star game, it has educational value as it is a fun intro to some coding concepts. I'm giving it 2 stars because I want to attract the developers' attention: your game won't open more than once. I downloaded it yesterday, and every time I try to reopen it, I get a black screen. I can run it again only if I reinstall it. Please fix this bug. If it helps, I don't use Google's gaming account on my phone. And thank you for the nice game!

The game itself is fun and is what deserves 5 stars. Negatives or wants: 1. handling of the screen rotation... the screen rotates when not desired. 2. Do not remove the possibility to see the description of a command. I do not play the game every day and it's easy to forget the details about each command. 3. Add the possibility to run the code without going through the animation. 4. Add possibility to disable all in-game audio.
