1 / 8Fix it, Please! is a bureaucratic roguelike from PIX GAMES, released on Steam for Windows and Linux on October 30, 2026. It lists at US$6.99 and launched 20% off, with a story campaign, optional online co-op and full controller support.
It is July 2000, and the city runs on the schedule of PIX CORP. You are its newest technical specialist, sitting in cubicle 1-B on floor minus one with a stamp, a terminal and a window onto the corridor. Your job is to check forms, issue badges, watch the cameras and revive broken hardware without asking questions.
Three strikes end a run. Worse, the day never changes: it is always Friday, 21 July 2000, and with every loop the tower recognises you a little more.
Gameplay
A shift runs from 09:00 until the hooter at 21:00, and the queue at your window will not wait. Badge requests are the core task: compare every field against the staff database, check the round seal against four kinds of forgery, and match the photo to the face, then choose issue, deny or call security. A UV lamp, a call to HR and personnel-file photos help with the borderline cases.
Around that, the job piles up. Security cameras catch intruders smashing glass, but calling security on a janitor costs money. A sysadmin queue of eight hardware faults, from viruses to stuck floppies, each carries its own deadline. Parcels need waybills checked and suspicious ones X-rayed.
The roguelike layer is a ledger. Housing, meals and upkeep come out of your pay, the supply depot sells upgrades like a second phone line or a cat, and nine special-day orders bend the rules. A town of 160 residents remembers you between runs. Extra modes include Endless Friday, a seeded Daily Shift and a hardcore mode.
Story & Setting
PIX CORP owns the city's routine, and anyone missing from its lists effectively does not exist. Three technicians held your job before you: one quit, one collected three strikes, and one simply stopped showing up, leaving no record behind. On your very first evening, a courier drops a sealed envelope on your desk addressed to someone who is on no list at all.
Then Friday repeats. After the seventh day, the calendar snaps back to 21 July 2000. On the second loop the tower knows your face; on the third, someone at the window talks about the loop out loud. You gather clues in an evidence folder, stash supplies for your next self in Locker 44, and chase 13 pieces of evidence toward nine endings, ranging from a box of belongings to a Saturday nobody in the city remembers.

Why it matters
Papers, Please made document checking compelling, and Fix it, Please! builds on that idea with a roguelike economy, a looping mystery and a town that remembers your decisions. Two-player desk co-op, streamer chat voting and friend-made trick forms give it more social hooks than most games in the genre. It suits players who love deduction, routine under pressure and slowly unravelling a conspiracy. Skip it if paperwork sims feel like a chore, or if you want action; the tension here comes from a ticking clock and a suspicious stamp.
