How it feels

You juggle grating calls and unforgiving metrics while a watchful boss looms, making each shift feel like a slow, bureaucratic endurance test.

What players say

Players who worked in call centers find it surprisingly authentic and nostalgic. Some bugs exist, especially a broken address verification loop, and the call audio can be out of sync with the transcript.
