HOW IT WORKS,
WITHOUT THE PITCH.

The cycle

A day is 12 phases of 2 hours. A new hire starts fresh at the top of a phase and works a 8-hour shift, tiring in steps as it runs, then sleeps for 16 hours and starts again. At the base band that means you will often open the app to a sleeping goblin - that screen is part of the game, and it always tells you when he is back at his desk.

Eras

Five permanent stages, each a year to live in and each a bigger multiplier. Era is per broker, not per wallet, and it is bought with a manual burn that never happens automatically - reaching the broker level opens the option and you take it when you want the ceremony.

Era prices and multipliers are fixed at launch with no setter. Someone who burned 850,000 GOB for 3.5× must never see that number change.

Broker level

Levels 1 to 50, per broker, on a cost curve that rises every level. It buys exactly one thing: how long he works before he tires. Five bands, from 8-hour shifts to 16-hour shifts, and the band boundaries are also the Era gates - Lv.10, Lv.20, Lv.30, Lv.40. One milestone, two rewards.

Reaching Lv.40 costs 391,376 GOB on its own, which is why an Era V broker is genuinely rare and why the market for second-hand brokers exists at all.

Office

One office per wallet, created free the first time you hire, and never transferable. It decides how many of your brokers may be at a desk at once - 2 seats to start, 8 at the top - and how the shared room looks. A seat is added at Office Lv.8, Lv.15, Lv.22, Lv.29, Lv.36, Lv.43. You may own more brokers than you have seats; the extra ones simply stay asleep until you make room or sell them.

The office is not a multiplier, not a token, and not an earning slot of its own. When you sell a broker, the room stays with you.

Fusing

Fusing turns two brokers you own into one. You pick a survivor and a broker to absorb. The survivor keeps his own Era, level, elected asset and everything in his vault, and gains the absorbed broker's Era on top of his own. A permanent bonus is then applied to the total. The absorbed NFT is sent to the burn address and is gone for good.

A broker can absorb up to 3 others. Each step costs more and pays more.

Any broker you own can be absorbed - hired, asleep, never activated, or already fused himself. One that was never hired counts as Era I, the floor. There is no requirement to wake a broker up before feeding him to another.

The absorbed broker's unclaimed credit is paid out to you in the same transaction, so a fuse can never strand earnings, and his seat is returned to your office. If any of his credit cannot be transferred - a frozen or paused asset - the fuse is refused rather than completed, and you claim first.

Fusing is one-way and there is no unfuse. The prices and bonuses above are admin-settable and the app reads the live values on chain before you sign; the contract also refuses any fuse whose result would exceed the reward vault's weight ceiling. Fusing is the only mechanism in the game that reduces the number of brokers in circulation.

Rewards and claiming

Fees arriving from GOB trading are converted and streamed into the reward vault, which releases 2% of its reserve per day. That release is divided across all the work being done at that moment, in proportion to each broker's Era multiplier and where he is in his shift. A resting broker is not in the division at all.

Each broker collects exactly one asset, chosen by his owner. The default is USDG; stock tokens are electable and carry an acknowledgment when you pick one. Switching takes effect immediately - everything he has already earned stays in the asset he earned it in, and each balance stays independently claimable forever.

Claiming pays the owner of the token, costs no protocol fee, and has no setter that could ever add one. Unclaimed credit travels with the NFT, which is why the market cards subtract it from the effective cost of a broker.

Claim All is the wallet-level convenience action. It settles every broker you own, moves every asset balance, and groups the receipt by asset while each broker's vault remains independent.

Money flow

Two things come in and they never mix: ETH from trading fees and royalties, and GOB from what players spend in the game.

Hires, Era upgrades and breakdown recovery are burned in full. Broker levels, office levels and consumables burn 80% and send 20% to the treasury. The vault's only ETH exit is a swap that returns reward assets to the vault in the same transaction, above a TWAP floor. Earned credit leaves only to the broker's owner - no key can take it, fee it, or pause it.

The team can withdraw from the reward pool to cover project costs - servers, art, audits and the rest. Only the part that has not been released yet is reachable: the moment the clock releases value to a broker it is his, and no key can take it back.

FAQ

Contracts

Live on Robinhood Chain and immutable - there are no proxies, so none of these can be upgraded in place. Read each one on the explorer.

BrokerGame has been replaced twice, each time by deploying a successor and moving every broker's state across - that is what "immutable" costs, and it is the only way the logic can change. Retired contracts are frozen and hold no player funds; the addresses above are always the live ones.
