Description

The Counter lets you experience the noble art of doing nothing professionally. Face impatient clients, urgent cases, pointless paperwork, and colleagues who are just as lazy as you are. Your mission is not to solve problems. Your mission is to delay them, misplace them, redirect them, and preferably make them someone else’s problem. Play action cards to sabotage your coworkers, slow down the queue, bury files under procedure, and escape before anyone notices you were supposed to be working. Fast, petty, and painfully familiar, The Counter is a bureaucratic comedy game where the real enemy is efficiency. —description from the designer
