Holonoptic – Review | When Corporate Management Becomes a Distinctive RPG
A distinctive management RPG where corporate power, psychology and meaningful choices shape every decision.




As the new CEO of a derelict company, you must deal (or side) with rogue corporate AIs, rebellious labor unions and globalist aristocrats. Holonoptic combines economic simulation and RPG into a story-rich corporate alpine cyberpunk.
Welcome, new employee.
You are now CEO,
because your predecessor vanished,
and everyone else was fired.
Oh, and an artificial intelligence now controls the company.
Rebuild and expand into the weakened Eurozone, at all costs.
Make pacts with shadow economy thieves, free market globalists, parasitic unions
or wealth-extracting aristocrats.
Good luck, and try not to get fired.
Adapt your character for survival in the firestorm of the free market, from the versatile Office Drone to the financial wizard Investment Banker or sneaky Corporate Spy.
Replace our vanished CEO and decide carefully between different factions. Rebellious office drone unions, rogue corporate AIs or aristocratic plutocrats will try to instrumentalize you. Make your choices in an economic drama inspired by Scifi and cyberpunk.
Use friendly acquisitions or hostile takeovers to expand our corporate empire into the weakened Eurozone, build facilities, hire (or fire) thousands of employees.
Drink coffee to increase your focus, evolve your brain with paranoia or euphoria, use your emotions in speech checks against other characters.
Every action, substance or thing you say impacts your mental state, allowing you to transcend into the being the company aspires you to be.
Deal with artificial intelligences trying to control companies, transhumanists striving for pharmaceutical immortality and virtual consciousness clones.
Recruit up to 16 unique characters into your company that you can level up and equip individually. Send them on business-trips all over Europe to acquire other companies or complete corporate espionage missions.
