Narrative Game Intern (ARG + Storytelling)

About the Internship

We're building PlayOps, a global simulation that replaces rsums with real proof of skill, behavior, and action.

To bring the simulation to life, we've created an ARG (Alternate Reality Game) that blends cinematic story, puzzles, AI, and real-world missions.

We're now recruiting 30 interns to become core players and community operators on Telegram in the early rollout of this game.

You'll help shape the experience, solve narrative puzzles, unlock hidden clues, and contribute to a story that unfolds across Telegram, TikTok, and a short film launching on Roku this winter.

• Decode hidden clues, puzzles, and smart contracts in daily missions
• Co-write or contribute to lore drops, NPC interactions, and narrative content
• Help test the game logic and user experience in real time
• Participate in weekly role-based challenges and social media drops
• Optionally be featured in TikTok promos or narrative scenes (no acting required)

Roles You Can Play

• Agent Zero Daily puzzle lead
• Threadwalker Tracks theories and connections
• Ghostline Tests AI-generated clues
• Lore Courier Manages in-game drops
• Feed Watcher Connects real-world news to game events
