P0: Byte-Sized Brilliance

Prepare to jump straight into the interview of your nightmares. A far from average desk job awaits at the end of your task, but what do you need to do to land the career of your dreams as an investigator of all thing's anomaly? For your task, you'll have ten seconds to decide whether the floor you memorised is clear of anomalies or if something is… off. If you wish you could smash your desk in real life, then this is the closest you'll come (without having to talk to HR after). Smash the green button if everything is as it seems, or smash red if you spot something not quite right. Time is ticking (and yes, there is LOTS of smashing)!

For each floor cleared correctly, you'll be given a grade along with a predicted overall final grade to keep you on track. C is your target. C is your friend. Clear all 30 floors to escape the loop to unlock tougher difficulty modes. For true teacher's pets, sub difficulties can also be tackled if a C-grade ain't good enough for ya. With anomalies ranging from hilarious to legitimately disturbing, you'll be faced with new challenges in each difficulty mode. You'll soon come to find that some anomalies are completely randomized, so don't think you can get away with your memory alone for this position. Our staff needs to remain on the ball!

Thought you had this job in the bag? You'll be up against a global roster of talent who will be competing against you to achieve the quickest time for all floors cleared. Regardless of which difficulty mode you choose, only those with the fastest finger in the West will make it to the top of the leaderboards. Like any decent office, there are a plethora of treats on offer in the form of collectibles. Rack up credits and spend them wisely, as they can help you spot tougher anomalies or provide glimpses into the lore. You can also spend them on your emotional support 'Monster Buddy'. Your desk-dwelling dude or diva can be kitted out in the finest or wackiest wares. We've got to keep morale up, I suppose.
