Set against a backdrop of 90s techno-optimism, FACEMINER is an experimental, narrative-driven management sim that tasks the player with building a planetary scale biometric processing empire from scratch. All from within a suite of vintage software.


WORKLOAD

Manage data-streams, software upgrades, and hardware extensions as you rapidly expand your plant’s infrastructure. Ensure profits remain high and avoid bankruptcy (or worse) as you navigate oppressive electricity bills, high-maintenance cooling systems, and crooked politically-enforced carbon offsetting schemes.


CORPORATE CULTURE

Mining alone is no fun! Learn more about your fellow miners and keep up to date with the office gossip through internal email. Sift through messages to unravel the mysteries – and ultimate plans – of the shadowy creators of the FACEMINER software suite.

GROWTH OPPORTUNITIES

Climb the corporate ladder and gradually rise through the ranks as you are promoted from manual data-filtering rookie through to the ultimate harvesting automator as you classify and sell facial data at ever-increasing speeds. The world of data brokering is ruthless, and poor prioritisation can lead to costly mistakes down the line. Do you have what it takes to climb the ranks and become the ultimate FACEMINER?

Remember: Every Face Has Value.

FACEMINER is looking for willing test subjects to participate in a complimentary, downloadable beta demo of the game.

Destructoid - "Faceminer is a creepy yet topical game about data harvesting"

After months of heads-down development, we are getting ready to unleash a FACEMINER demo upon the world, with a tentative release date of October. The problem: we don't know how well the game works yet. Not just in a "is this fun" way, but in a "does this crash on the x64 version of the Windows 7", way, too. This is where we come to you!

FACEMINER is the dystopian narrative-driven A.I. management sim where you build a biometric data processing empire from scratch. Classify dubiously sourced data, upgrade mining infrastructure, and scale up your A.I. surveillance empire to obscene ends in this hardcore thriller clicker set in 1999.

Those interested in playing a substantial slice of the game early are encouraged to sign up to our Discord, and fill out the form in 'demo-beta-test'. Open to Windows, OSX and Linux users.

We look forward to onboarding you.
