Redshirt (2013)

Redshirt is the comedy sci-fi sim about social networking aboard a space station, starring the station’s most ambitious low-ranking peon: you! Navigate the professional and interpersonal politics of the ubiquitous "Spacebook" to curry favor among friends and colleagues.

Redshirt is a turn-based life management simulation comedy sci-fi game that parodies social networking culture. It is set on a space station, Megalodon-9, where the player character starts their career as a Transporter Accident Cleanup Technician. The station citizens are required to use a proprietary social network, “Spacebook,” which the player uses to interact and influence the procedurally generated AI-driven characters. The objective is to make friends, influence people, and climb the career ladder to avoid being a disposable nobody before the predicted calamity hits the station. The game features extensive character creation, character profiles, and multiple routes to success. Overall, Redshirt is a satirical, tongue-in-cheek social simulation filled with humor and political intrigue that offers a unique gaming experience.
