On cue, a meeting is announced to start in 5 minutes. You can try and kill yourself in a variety of ways, including: stapling, office furniture mishaps, insulted co-workers, the office fire extinguisher, death by microwave, etc. You can take the elevator to other random floors for more death options. Every action you take gives you a percentage of death and you only have 5 minutes to totally kill yourself, otherwise you have to trudge into your next meeting trailing blood and the productivity report on the white board shows what percent of your life you had left to dispose of. It's a good time killer until that next meeting. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.1/10 - Popularity: 73% | Activity: 73% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Life](https://www.trendhunter.com/life) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Dark Humor Games:** Opportunity for creating more dark humor games that push the boundaries. - **Workplace Stress Relief:** Opportunity for developing games or applications that provide a humorous outlet for workplace stress. - **Time Management Games:** Opportunity for creating time management-themed games with a humorous twist. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Gaming:** Disruptive innovation opportunity for game developers to explore the realm of dark humor games. - **Wellness and Mental Health:** Opportunity for wellness and mental health industries to incorporate humor as a stress relief tool for office workers. - **Productivity Tools:** Opportunity for productivity tools developers to explore gamified approaches to time management for increased engagement and stress relief. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Slacking Support Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/office-slacker.md) - [Life-Inspired Board Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-game-of-death.md) - [Gamified Office Worker Exercises](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crouch-beat.md) - [Horror Animated Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/scope-creep.md) - [Entertaining Adult Card Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fck-marry-kill-adult-card-game.md) - [Anti-Productivity Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/quiet-quitter.md) - [Casual Brain Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/quickriddle.md) - [Work-Ditching Video Game Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ghost-your-boss.md) - [Exercise-Focused Gaming Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smart-5min-x-suika-game.md)
