DOLOS: Your Best Future

You're the operator behind an AI deciding everyone's future. Play the system or play it against itself, either way you're choosing who gets a place in tomorrow's society.

DOLOS: Your Best Future puts you in the shoes of Theophile Agnos, an operator doing micro-tasks for a government AI that’s meant to build the perfectly efficient society of tomorrow. Your job, disguised as a video game within the game, is to sort applicants into training courses using two linked mechanics: a management game where you dig up data on candidates, and a card game where you race against the clock to place them following DOLOS’ recommendations.

Follow the AI’s suggestions and you get bonus time, more cards and a smoother turn. Ignore them and you might just save someone the system was ready to write off. Along the way you’ll chat with your performance coach OJO, climb the operator ranks for perks, and team up with your colleague Marie to dig into what DOLOS is really hiding.

Every choice you make ripples forward through the years, and you’ll see former applicants return to find out what became of them. It’s a narrative management game about efficiency versus freedom, and about whether you can stay human while working for a machine that’s grading everyone’s worth.
