Helpdesk simulator game

The original helpdesk simulator is a simple, text-based adventure game where you play as a new, bright-eyed IT helpdesk technician. As a new employee at Incompecorp, your job is to help customers with their IT issues, avoid disaster and improve your skills one ticket at a time.

When you're a high enough level, you'll be promoted to an IT manager. It's then up to you to hire new technicians and manage the IT helpdesk tickets, while training your new hires, to achieve the best outcome possible.

Check out the sequel: Helpdesk Simulator 2: Turn It Off and On Again

Quick start

  1. Run helpdesk to begin.

  2. You have the option of completing a short tutorial or jumping straight to the action.

  3. The first time it runs, helpdesk will write default data to the
    data directory. These are:

    • disasters.json for the potential disasters that could occur
    • issues.json for the issues that people may encounter
    • names.json for the names of the people you interact with
    • options.json for the options available when solving an issue
  4. Advanced users may wish to edit these data files. You can do this directly with any programme capable of editing json data.

  5. Enjoy your helpdesk adventure!
