Fortune-499 is an RPG about fortune telling in the modern world, having players read the future for a large corporation while completing office work and thumping rivals by out-predicting them in combat.
Players will have a variety of office tasks and lighthearted meetings to go to in the world of big business fortune telling. Players will have to answer emails, deal with printer jams, and talk their way through office get-togethers, all in order to collect a paycheck and survive the week.
While most office work is mundane, even for someone who can read the future, there are some more violent aspects of office work as well in the form of monster battles. Here, players will have to use their abilities to predict what the monsters will do, choosing a move that counters it in a damaging game of Rock/Paper/Scissors. Should they outmaneuver their rival monsters, they’ll be able to get back to their work and further the game’s silly plot.
Fortune-499 is available now on Steam and Itch.io.
