GAMEPLAY & PROGRESSION

What makes Delegatory distinctive

Delegatory is a short incremental game about prioritising and delegating tasks for a team of interns inside DELEGATICORP. You build efficiency through a large branching skill tree, grow the team with cloning, and hire specialist Interns whose unique powers can create further delegation opportunities. Completing High Priority tasks awards Shoutout Points for Equipment and Temporary Boons, while meeting targets within a review cycle earns promotions. The Prestigious Implant Procedure adds permanent increases to your Delegation abilities. The game is listed for Windows, Mac, Linux, and Steam, with approximately 3–4 hours of gameplay.

Delegation, upgrades, and team growth

The core loop combines task prioritisation with delegation to your intern team. The branching skill tree upgrades team efficiencies and delegation abilities, while the Cloning Vats let you clone Interns and grow the team. This makes staff expansion part of the same progression system as improving efficiency.

Specialists and reward spending

Specialist Interns bring unique powers with overlapping effects, and those powers can unlock additional efficiencies and delegation opportunities. High Priority tasks provide Shoutout Points, which have a defined use in the Rewards and Recognition Store: buying Equipment and Temporary Boons.

Promotions and permanent augmentation

Performance is tracked against targets within a review cycle; meeting them earns promotions and advances your climb up the corporate ladder. Separately, the Prestigious Implant Procedure provides experimental augmentations that permanently increase Delegation abilities, giving progression a lasting upgrade layer.
