ARCADE

Career Simulator Games

A career simulator is a game where you live an entire professional life through decisions. ARCADE turns that into ten-minute runs you can play in the browser, for free.

How a run works

Every career simulation starts by rolling the world: the era you were born into, your origin and the rival who will shadow your whole career. Then you draft eight attributes from eight legends, under a points cap, so no build can be good at everything.

From there you play six phases and fifteen decisions. Each decision shows the attribute being tested, your odds and what is at stake, and the outcome moves your stats, your money, your reputation and your health.

Why runs never repeat

Consequences are delayed: several choices plant echoes that only fire two turns later, sometimes long after you had forgotten them. Combined with the random era, origin, rival and decision pool, the same simulation produces a different life every time.
