Oh no!

Your recruiter has accidentally set up an interview with some crazy people at a company called The Forum! 

Your task is simple, just go through the motions and whatever you do, DON'T get the job. But as it turns out, that's a bit harder than you might've originally thought.

This game was made in 3 days for the Wowie 3.0 game jam, we hope you enjoy it! And if you wanna know more about The Forum, check out another game we're working on; Glitcheon!

This game has been updated

To play the original game jam version, made for Wowie Jam 3.0, download the jam version build. The Webgl version has been updated with fixes, new content and improved balancing.

(+4)

I was so annoying they almost called security

Had a blast with this game! Going into a job interview wanting to fail really takes the pressure off.
The characters were fantastic, it was a good time trying to decipher their personality to make sure you gave the right.. or wrong answers.

Not gonna lie, Greg was hard to figure out, he was the best part for sure. 

Great game, fun experience, thank you!

(+4)

(+2)

Great Game was a lot of fun!
(+2)

they all liked me, and i kept messing with greg lol

(+2)

The last guy liked me lol but I still didn't get the job because the other two didn't liked me so It's a win

(+1)

I really liked this game. I like the style, the humor. It was a pleasant surprise that this is not just "trial and error" type of quiz. You actually need to understand these guys' character (with additional help from background). Also it's cool how the questions are universal for each interviewer, you just need to choose an answer that fits their character. (Doesn't fit, actually)

(+1)

I wasn't able to make Greg hate me lolol

(+1)

greg is cute

(+6)

why is so hard to make greg hate me.

why.

(+2)

How do you beat Greta,Angelo and Greg?It's kinda hard.

(+3)

for Greta you need to be lazy and unprofessional as heck, for Angelo you need to be very professional, and for Greg you need to be a violence loving psychopath

(2 edits) (+1)

Thanks!

(Edit:I beat it!)

Edit(Again?):How do i be a violence loving psychopath?I see no options to be violent-

(+2)

Thanks, we should add this description to a formal guide. 🤣

(+5)
GREG
(+5)

ADD GREG ROMANCE 

(+1)

There's at least a little bit of that in there for you ;) <3

(+4)

i want the game to fully go greg romance simulator 

(+1)

We may just have to do that... Don't get the date... or DO owo

this was
This was weird..
(+2)

I liked playing the game, it was interesting to find out what each of the people like and dislike. I only got the chill dude right the first time around and Greg was even too hard for me in the second round. They are all pretty unique and cool and the random Q&A's make it super re-playable. Love the little details in the offices as well, especially the little penguin in the moon. Makes me go "noot noot" every time. (Hehehehehe.)

(+1)

hehehheheheheh after many many attempts i did it the first interviewer is very serious ehhehhehhhehehhe while the second one is chill liky chilly. the third you just goottta butter him up he is creepy old man, like a mirror, very refreshing hehehehehehheheh

hehehehehehehehehe

(+1)

yooo beat it at my second try lets gooooo

Let's gooooooo

This game is COMPLETELY IMPOSSIBLE, like I try to choose the worst answers and... I got the job somehow, this job is impossible not to get...

While it's intentionally difficult and possibly a little unfair, it's not impossible. 😅Hope you enjoyed it all the same!

omg, i actully didnt get the jop i guess its not immpossable, i was being sarcastic lol

(+1)

The game has been updated.

i saw you added amogus

Amogus has always been there. We did add a potato at one point though

(+2)

Thank you for playing and making a video! Glad you enjoyed our weird creation

(+5)
