FreelancerSim is a free arcade game you can play right here in your browser. Think word — that is the shape of it. You can jump in for two minutes or lose an hour to it; either works.
About FreelancerSim
Have you ever wanted to work from home and earn money? Yes, today we are freelancing and earning money by working from home. We can earn money by typing the required words or by detonating viruses on computers. We can buy things for our home or feed ourselves with the money we earn. If you go hungry and die, everything starts from scratch.
How to play FreelancerSim
The opening minute doubles as the tutorial. You will want a keyboard for this one — the arrow keys / WASD carry most of it, and the table below has the rest. It fills the player in landscape, so use the fullscreen button on desktop and turn your phone sideways on mobile. Expect the first attempt to be a write-off; that is normal here.
Controls
| Input | Action |
|---|---|
| Mouse | Navigate menus and interact |
| Arrow keys / WASD | Move |
| Spacebar | Primary action |
On mobile: Tap and swipe on screen. Turn your phone sideways — this game is designed for landscape and fills a horizontal screen.
Why it is worth playing
FreelancerSim is the kind of game that fits into a gap between other things. Two minutes is a real session, and so is an hour. It is not trying to be anything larger, and it is better for it.
