No Time to Relax

No Time to Relax is a multiplayer life simulation game in the lineage of The Game of Life, played competitively against up to three other players locally or online. Each player is racing to live the most successful fake adult life, balancing work, education, and sanity against the constant temptations of the stock market and the schemes of your friends.

The gameplay loop is short turn-based actions — go to work, study, take missions, decorate your apartment, play the stock market, get a pet — accumulating wealth and stats over a number of rounds. Hexes you cast on other players (and they cast on you) can tank careers, drain savings, or otherwise destabilise progress, keeping nobody too comfortable.

Up to four players in local pass-and-play or online with friends or strangers. Single-player versus CPU opponents is supported. Peaceful mode strips out the hex mechanic for less stressful sessions when you just want to play the life sim straight.

Seven character avatars cover the customisation surface, plus an original soundtrack and a generous achievement list. Controllers, keyboard, and mouse are all supported, with hot-seat play designed around shared screens. From small indie team RasterGrid Studios.
