Networking Event Simulator

Certain types of events lead to a certain type of attending audiences. It is important to understand that the rules of an event and the diversity of the invited people form its individual culture.

Even if you never had the questionable pleasure to be at such an event, you will find it funny for sure.

Over the time this simulation game becomes a spectacular and over-the-top designed hyperbole. Just when you think it could not get any crazier – I am just thinking of the business card shooting mechanic in the second part of the game -, “Networking Event Simulator” shows off its secret weapon: The several minutes long ending scene!
