Human Expenditure Program is a darkly comic simulation game about human resources, efficiency, and “usefulness” in a weird experimental system. Satire and management games push you to make tough and sometimes absurd productivity, survival, and waste decisions.
Playing Human Expenditure Program involves managing human groups and allocating resources. You want to increase productivity while keeping subjects alive enough to work. Keep food, energy, and effort balanced to avoid collapse. Poor decisions can cause program turmoil, mutiny, or failure.
