There is room for a food delivery horror game. Procedurally generated delivery instructions that never make sense. Contact support, have a real voice chat with a LLM that leads nowhere. Don’t make quota? Get hunted and eaten by The Manager. All for tips that don’t pay your crippling medical bills nor allow you transition into better jobs. The horror writes itself.

Sorry We're Open is a similar idea except focused on working retail rather than the gig economy. I recommend it!

The real challenge would be how you soften the game enough that players don't immediately lose all hope and go outside to touch grass.
