unLABS
♥Cherished
A browser-based idle game that simulates a Linux-like operating system with an in-game terminal, hardware controls, and 37 virtual devices. Players manage a surrealist lab, craft NFT crystals across progression tiers, and participate in a player-driven economy—all rendered through a retro 1980s terminal interface. Built with Next.js and React, it ships as both a web app and Electron desktop application.
