Work in Progress is an interactive board game designed for students who are about to enter the workplace. It invites participants to experience how burnout emerges through endless tasks, shifting goals, and invisible pressures. Through role-playing and decision-making, players navigate the tension between achievement and self-preservation. The game aims to raise awareness of how modern work culture shapes identity and exhaustion, before participants face it in real life. Rather than offering solutions, it transforms reflection into a shared release, encouraging players to rethink what balance and meaning might truly look like.
