The Office Manager by Captain Nakou
Hey! I'm your boss! And i'm in a little hiring frenzy. I have decided to hire 1 to 3 employees every month.
Your job is to buy place in the office around your headquarters. But you also need to assign a desk at every new person.
Your Employees will need a Desk, but also a place to rest, and toilets.
Do you think you can handle that for... I dont know. 2 years?
Thanks Buddy. Good Luck!!

This game has the trappings of a potentially interesting spatial puzzle, but it just didn't give me enough feedback to understand if I was doing everything right. At one point, I was super happy and rich, a few days after continuing what I had assumed to be working, I suddenly had $500 and couldn't buy anything. Eventually, I went bankrupt and still was apparently 94% happy about it. I think some mechanism to highlight (and explain) good and bad decisions would be really helpful here.
Two more quibbles. One: because of the perspective, which I was not able to change, I had very little idea of the physical whereabouts of the particular office I was looking at in the bigger building. I'd suggest changing the camera angle to show more of the building and make the camera position adjustable. Two: the buttons (Build new office; Build a toilet; Build a rest area) seemed somewhat unrealiable and required multiple clickings. Maybe it's just Unity acting up on my old laptop.
