Machine Yearning: A Brain-Teasing Robot Job Simulator from Tiny Little Keys
This isn't your average human job. Tiny Little Keys' debut game, Machine Yearning, challenges you to perform tasks typically reserved for robots. Prove your mettle as the ultimate human in a robot-dominated world.
Tiny Little Keys, an American studio founded by ex-Google Machine Learning Engineer Daniel Ellis, is bringing a unique gaming experience to mobile devices. Machine Yearning launches September 12th.
What is Machine Yearning?
In Machine Yearning, you'll apply for a job that robots usually handle. As a human, you'll need to outsmart a CAPTCHA-like system designed to weed out imposters. The game promises to put your memory and processing speed to the test, pushing your cognitive abilities to at least a 2005-era level.
Gameplay starts with linking words to shapes. As you progress, the difficulty increases, introducing more words, colors, and complex relationships to remember.
Master the challenges, and you'll unlock the ability to customize your robots with a variety of hats—archer hats, cowboy hats, straw hats, and more! See it in action:
