The concept has merit but I feel the execution lacked. Too much telling me how I should feel. I couldn't suspend my disbelief when this post-apocalypse has a higher demand for a human bench than a human doctor. The problem is that you want the reader to take the themes seriously with a premise that is too absurd. Finally, I felt it overstayed its welcome. I got the idea but you kept on giving it.

The game is inspired by the United Kingdom’s Department for Work and Pensions. John Pring’s The Department is a major influence as well as my partner’s experiences trying to get welfare. Hopefully, this explains why I “kept on giving it”.
