Unsubscribe: Inbox Survival

It’s 9:00 on Monday. Your work phone is buzzing, a pop-up wants you to rate WorkOS, and someone just booked a meeting about the meeting. Make it to Friday. Unsubscribe is a fast, funny game about surviving the work week. Every workday is a few frantic minutes of email: swipe right to unsubscribe, swipe left to delete, tap to reply. Ignore a coworker and they chase you on chat. Delete your manager and you’re in a meeting. Let the pop-ups pile up and your screen fills with them. Stress climbs, mistakes snowball, and if you burn out, HR schedules a call about your wellbeing. You can’t hang up. HOW TO SURVIVE • Reply to your manager and the people you work with • Unsubscribe from newsletters: they stay gone all week • Delete spam. The yacht is not real. • Decline invites before they turn into meetings • Swipe pop-ups into the Bin and grab a coffee • Take a quick doomscroll break. Just don’t get caught. CLIMB THE CORPORATE LADDER • Five workdays, then payday • Spend Brownie Points on desk upgrades: a Double Espresso, Noise-Cancelling Headphones, a Desk Plant (his name is Kevin) • Hire bots that do your job for you: the Unsubscribe Bot, the Spam Filter, Auto-Reply “Sounds good!” • Get promoted from Intern to Chief Inbox Officer. Every title brings more email, and sometimes a new manager with new rules • Weekly surprises: Black Friday Week, Server Migration, Casual Friday (All Week) MEET THE OFFICE • Linda, your manager. Never delete Linda. • Margot, who only communicates through calendar invites • Chad, who made the CEO’s LinkedOut posts mandatory reading • Dave from Sales, who has questions. Not the usual ones. • Kevin, your trainer. Kevin is a plant. ADS AND PURCHASES Unsubscribe is free. From your second week, one short ad plays after each week’s results, never during your workday, and you can choose to watch optional ads for bonuses. A one-time No Ads purchase removes them, and every bonus is included without watching. Your progress stays on your phone. No account needed.
