Armed with only a pocket protector and a single punch card, your character finds itself within its own software and must eventually merge with the machine or die trying. The Manager might stalk you, and the newbie might slow you down, but beware of the gamer in disguised dressed as a programmer giving false advice! The acolytes of software languages will attempt to convert your character to follow the one true software paradigm. There are spaces and tabs and missing semi-colons. Coffee is the one true weapon (outside of the mountainous dew) for powering through meetings, infinite recursion and race conditions.
