About Human Resource Machine
Program quirky office workers to solve increasingly complex automation puzzles in this charming introduction to programming logic. Made by the creators of World of Goo, it strips away the intimidation of code to reveal the simple, beautiful puzzle-solving at programming's heart.
Program little office workers to solve puzzles. Be a good employee! The machines are coming... for your job.
Human Resource Machine is a puzzle game for nerds. In each level, your boss gives you a job. Automate it by programming your little office worker. If you succeed, you'll be promoted up to the next level for another year of work in the vast office building. Congratulations!
Don't worry if you've never programmed before - programming is just puzzle solving. If you strip away all the 1's and 0's and scary squiggly brackets, programming is actually really simple, logical, beautiful, and something that anyone can understand and have fun with! Are you already an expert? There will be extra challenges for you.
From the creators of World of Goo and Little Inferno. Have fun! Management is watching.

Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
A very puzzling game that teaches you understanding how algorithms and programming work. Pretty innovative but maybe you wait for a sale. 14,79 is quite a price for a game in this size.3 found this helpful
A game that essentially kickstarted my programming career. A little over a decade and some 5 YoE in the industry later, I still think about this game:) - obviously, the game is great and I recommended it more than a few times to people wanting to dip their toes into programming. Thank you, Tomorrow Corporation, for helping shape the rest of my life!1 found this helpful
I accidentally ended up playing the sequel before the this one and I gotta admit that the second one is a lot more... friendly to users with it's puzzles versus this one. This one really gets your head in a tizzy when you have to process different math related concepts like how you take a number to find it's prime numbers and whatnot but only using addition and subtraction... like it gets real confusing but that might just be because I'm not a math person and a lot of this work you'll need like a pen and paper if you can't visualize it tbh. But it's STILL a good game... you probably just wont enjoy it if you're not a math person tbh.1 found this helpful
nice game for causal time
wery good
Веселые пучеглазые человечки вместо ассемблера делают JMP ADD SUB BRRRR и из этого всего как-то получаются числа Фибонначи, сортировка и разложение на простые множители. Нраица.
