+# Work Adventure
+
+## Work in progress
+
+Work Adventure is a web-based collaborative workspace for small to medium teams (2-100 people) presented in the form of a
+16-bit video game.
+
+In Work Adventure, you can move around your office and talk to your colleagues (using a video-chat feature that is
+triggered when you move next to a colleague).
