Citizens of Calvania,

By decision of the Council, Happy Worker Tool Company will be soon available for free.

The Republic has determined that work must be accessible to all, regardless of personal wealth, doubts, or so-called “mental stability concerns.” The warehouse doors are open. The conveyors are running. The radio is smiling.

This is not charity. This is opportunity.

Why free?

Because the Council wants you here.

Because every citizen deserves the honor of contributing. Because the system functions best when everyone participates. Because you belong in the facility.

What is HWTC?

HWTC is a short psychological horror / work simulator set in the fictional Republic of Calvania.

You work night shifts in a warehouse, packing orders, staying correct, staying quiet… and trying to keep your sanity together while the lights flicker and the facility starts to feel wrong.

No jump scares. Just routine, pressure, and the slow collapse of stability.

If you enjoy it

  • Please consider leaving a review (it helps a lot, especially for small indie games)

  • Share the game with friends or creators who like dark psychological games

  • And most importantly… return for another shift

The Council thanks you for your contribution. The Council is watching.

Glory to Calvania, President Pete von Shinsky
