    For folks that have never seen elevator scheduling the game: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;play.elevatorsaga.com&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;play.elevatorsaga.com&#x2F; Enjoy this rabbit hole :D

      I wish there were more games like this. It’s such a simple premise but so satisfyingly difficult after each level. And it even has a bit of randomish failure which makes for even more challenge.

        at a quick glance, it reminds me of &quot;the farmer was replaced&quot;, if you havent seen&#x2F;heard of that one

          I remember this one, it deserves all sorts of praise

            I can also recommend <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;store.steampowered.com&#x2F;app&#x2F;375820&#x2F;Human_Resource_Machine&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;store.steampowered.com&#x2F;app&#x2F;375820&#x2F;Human_Resource_Mac...

              and its sequel is also worth a mention <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;store.steampowered.com&#x2F;app&#x2F;792100&#x2F;7_Billion_Humans&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;store.steampowered.com&#x2F;app&#x2F;792100&#x2F;7_Billion_Humans&#x2F;

              but imo, unlike farmer, these games reaaaaly lack the ability to make functions&#x2F;subroutines

              manually doing all the goto loops becomes tiring
