Now available on Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One for £12.49, this narrative-driven horror experience blends choose-your-own-adventure storytelling with puzzles and RPG elements, asking one simple question: how far are you willing to go to escape?

A Story That Doesn’t Sit Still
At the heart of Inhuman Resources is choice – and lots of it. This isn’t a linear tale you simply follow from start to finish. Instead, every decision you make branches the narrative in new directions, leading to hundreds of possible routes and multiple endings.
You’ll explore the strange inner workings of SMYRNACORP, a corporation that feels as out of time as it does out of place, existing in a world where truth itself seems unreliable. The deeper you go, the more questions emerge, and the harder it becomes to separate reality from manipulation.
It’s a story designed to be revisited, with each playthrough revealing new paths, outcomes and consequences.
More Than Just Reading
While the game leans heavily into its literary roots, it’s not just about reading blocks of text. Inhuman Resources mixes in puzzles, riddles and light RPG elements to keep things interactive.
You’ll need to think as well as choose, solving cryptic challenges, managing decisions carefully, and navigating situations where there’s rarely a clear right answer.
Clocking In Might Be Easy… Leaving Won’t Be
Inhuman Resources: A Literary Machination sets out to blur the line between game and story, offering something a little different from the usual horror releases on Xbox.
If you enjoy branching narratives, unsettling themes and the freedom to shape your own path, there’s plenty here to get lost in. Just don’t expect a straightforward journey. After all, some workplaces are harder to leave than others.
