Task memos arrive on your terminal and send you into the city โ€” here is everything confirmed about the loop that keeps your ticket valid.

Quick Answer: How Do Tasks Work?

Official screenshots show task memos arriving on the CRT terminal at your workstation โ€” the assignment, then the workplace, then the city. The features list frames the loop: complete the tasks assigned by your superiors, and the survival ticket stays valid. The detailed mechanics of accepting, tracking and turning in tasks will be documented here from launch day.

What the Official Material Shows

  • Task memos displayed on the office CRT terminal
  • Assignments given by your boss and superiors
  • Tasks that send you out of the office into the city
  • A world where completing work is tied to staying alive

Reading Between the Memos

Puzzles and exploration are promised alongside the tasks, and the official screenshots show interaction prompts (pick up, throw, return) in the field. The working assumption โ€” unconfirmed โ€” is that assignments are multi-step: read the memo, gather or do the thing in a dangerous place, return alive. How failure and refusal are handled is the first thing to test.

Nothing here is a verified step-by-step yet. The first verified walkthrough of the task loop replaces this section โ€” check back after launch week.

What We Are Watching For

  • Whether tasks can be refused, and what refusal costs immediately
  • Whether deadlines or patrol schedules pressure completion
  • Whether task performance grades anything beyond the ticket (standing, rewards, endings)
  • How the break room interacts with the work loop, if at all
