Frequently asked questions about Undercover
Can I play as real people or only fictional characters?
Both—you can play as real historical figures in documented crises (Sam Altman, Dick Fuld) or step into fictional job scenarios you might encounter in your career.
How is performance measured?
The game provides an 'honest read' of your decision-making, analyzing factors like decision speed (compared to percentiles of other players), whether you prioritized people or structure, and what risks you missed—not a traditional numerical score.
Are the events fictional or real?
Based on real timelines: dates, filings, and public statements come from the record; dialogue behind closed doors is dramatized. The game discloses this at the start and end of each run.
