LOW VALUE JOB is a dystopian job-simulation game where you sort scattered bolts, nuts, and washers by type. Pick up each part, examine it, and classify it accurately. Play solo to steadily raise your score, or compete online with players around the world to test your sorting skills.
LOW VALUE JOB is a dystopian job simulation game. A single, mind-numbingly simple task awaits you: sorting scattered parts on a desk by type. Bolts of various lengths. Nuts. Washers. Your job is to pick them up one by one, examine them carefully, and place them in the correct category.
This game offers nothing but atmosphere and labor. There is no story. Would you like to experience the emptiness of endless part-sorting in a dimly lit future?
The world we offer is an escape from the complex, grueling decisions of reality; a quiet space for those who find peace in quiet, monotonous work. At first, players focus intensely on identifying the parts. As they habituate, their minds begin to wander, creating space for various reflections.
If you find yourself thinking, "I want to do something else," then that is your cue to stop. To quit the game and start something else is the True Ending. Regardless of the number of parts sorted, that person has reached the conclusion.
The design of this game—requiring players to perform endless, repetitive tasks—is certainly not for everyone. However, I truly believe that the unique atmosphere and the sensations it evokes will resonate deeply with a certain audience.
I highly recommend this game to those who find peace in solitary, monotonous work, as well as those looking for a simple, casual competition to enjoy with friends.

This game is a task-based work simulation, so the on-screen visuals may not change significantly over time.
In Single-Player mode, the ending is triggered after sorting 5,000 parts.
Reaching the ending is expected to take approximately 90 minutes.
Please note: the ending is placed as a stopping point only and does not include a narrative or story elements.
The work this game offers is not for everyone. If you feel it’s not a good fit for you, please don’t force yourself to continue—it's perfectly okay to stop playing.
We understand that streamers and content creators may find it harder to step away mid-play. To viewers as well, we kindly ask that you respect and support the courage it takes to say, “Yeah… let’s stop here.”
There is no blood, gore, or direct violence in the game; however, it includes some suggestive elements or atmospheric cues that imply violence for thematic purposes.
LOW VALUE JOB is a work of fiction.
Its portrayal of parts sorting as a “low-value” or “meaningless” job is strictly a narrative device within the game’s dystopian setting. We do not intend to diminish or devalue the real-world work performed by professionals involved in parts sorting or related tasks.
The developer has previously worked in parts-sorting roles in a professional capacity and acknowledges that such work is both necessary and meaningful in real-world contexts.
Part sorting is often an undervalued line of work, and I truly hope that affordable tools to support it will become more widely available.
We don’t particularly recommend gifting this game to friends.
As the developer, we’re of course grateful for the gesture. However, it may unintentionally take away one of the few remaining choices left to the people in this world: the choice to begin on their own, and the choice to stop on their own.
If you don’t mind, we would truly appreciate it if you could sim
