About Idle Guy
Idle Guy is a life simulation game where you begin unemployed, homeless and without money, then work to improve your circumstances. You manage your character’s money and choices as you try to build a career and become wealthy.
Build a life
Find money for food, buy clothes and rent your first room in a dormitory. You can enroll at university to improve your earning prospects, trade on the stock market and climb the corporate ladder. You can also start a business and work toward earning your first million.
Relationships and activities
You can find a girlfriend and start a virtual family. Take your character to the hospital for treatment or to resorts, and visit bowling alleys, play pool and attend concerts to increase happiness.
Career goals
Your choices shape your path, from poverty to wealth or from banking to building a business empire. If you meet the challenges and avoid dying of old age, you can become head of the World Bank.
