Why go to the same boring job every day in order to receive a steady and predictable income when you can start working in the gig economy? The gig economy allows you to get all of the drawbacks and none of the benefits while struggling to make ends meet.
In Home Delivery, the players take on work as traveling popsicle sellers. The players take turns placing rectangular city tiles forming the road network of the city. In some parts of the city, there lives popsicle-craving residents with very specific tastes. They will gladly purchase a popsicle but it will have to be of the correct flavor.
Each player can take on tasks from the local ice cream parlors, delivering a set of popsicles to the residents. For every task that a player completes, they are awarded with a small paycheck. The players may save their paychecks to pay for things like rent and food or may use their pay to gain a competitive advantage over their fellow popsicle sellers.
Have you ever dreamt of owning your very own ice cream truck? Well forget about that. You're part of generation rent and this is the gig economy so all you can afford is to rent one and hope that your investment pays off!
So what are you waiting for? Quit your day job and become part of the new economy. It's gonna be huge.
