Introduce
Shuushoku Game (就職ゲーム) is a unique Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) game that simulates the challenging job-hunting process in Japan. Instead of focusing on action or adventure, players experience the life of a job seeker, from writing a resume and preparing for interviews to facing fierce competition and pressure.
Gameplay revolves around managing the character's time, money, and energy. Players need to balance studying, part-time jobs, and extracurricular activities to improve their skills and experience. Searching for job information and preparing for interviews are crucial. Shuushoku Game is not just a game but a realistic simulation of the life and social pressures faced by Japanese people during their job search.
Every player decision affects the final outcome. A good resume, good communication skills, and thorough interview preparation will increase the chances of finding a suitable job. However, the game also simulates unavoidable difficulties such as fierce competition, strict employer requirements, and risks during the job search.
The game's graphics feature the characteristic SNES pixel art style, which, although simple, conveys the atmosphere and context of Japanese society. The music also contributes to creating a realistic and impressive atmosphere for the player.
