🏆 TOTAL COVERAGE ACHIEVED

Congratulations. Here is your crown jewel — one fully-resolved sample profile from your database:

No retention mechanics. This game about the attention-and-data economy would rather you go outside. (The real ones would not.)

The exits exist. They only work if people use them.
