About the Game

Forty years old, no savings, no plan, and a mom who waits for rent every single week. Welcome to Mervin’s world – the adulthood simulator where every task spirals out of control faster than you can blink.
About the Game
Your goal is simple. Earn enough money to finally move out of your mom’s house. How you do it? That’s up to you…
Try your luck at the casino, go all in on crypto, or befriend some shady characters! Just remember—you can lose everything just as fast, and when that happens…
Honest work? A nightmare. But sometimes it’s the only option. Mow lawns, scrub toilets, or work at the garbage sorting facility—earn slowly, but honestly!
Short on cash for rent? Pick up a side gig dancing at a strip club. Completely broke? Challenge your mom to a fistfight!
Life isn’t just about work. Hit the gym, paint some pictures, or befriend a goldfish so you don’t lose your mind.
In this world, nothing is normal. Dialogues drip with dark humor, characters balance on the edge of absurdity, and at every step you’ll be asking yourself: “WTF?!”
What’s Inside?
A wild storyline packed with absurd choices and unpredictable consequences
A unique mix of 2D and 3D tasks, a fully interactive room, and Mervin’s command center – his Doors XD computer
Dozens of absurd mini-games inspired by Mervin’s most ridiculous jobs and side hustles
Managing Mervin’s needs such as sleep, hunger, and bladder (beware, he can be moody!)
Room customization and a progression system shaping your chaotic lifestyle
Black humor dialogues and a cast of bizarre, over-the-top characters
Everyday activities to (barely) keep Mervin sane: gym, painting, weird hobbies, and much more
A crazy blend of simulation, comedy, and the painful struggle of adult life
Add Nerd Simulator to your wishlist and get ready for the weirdest adulthood simulation ever…

Official update history
Hello Nerds!
We’ve prepared a new, important update for you featuring the long-awaited weight loss system! Motivate Mervin to get back in shape, bulk him up, and make sure nobody can stand up to him!
What’s new?
Weight loss system
Mervin can now gain weight and lose weight, and even build muscle! Take him to the gym and make him work out a little. Don’t forget about his diet either. At the new restaurant Salad History, which has appeared on Under Eats, you can order healthy salads that will help Mervin stay in shape.

New exercises
To give you more variety in the ways you can get in shape, we’ve added 2 minigames to the gym! Riding an exercise bike and climbing wall bars. Both games are inspired by classic hits from years gone by!

Hello Nerds!
December is a time of miracles and gifts, so things have become festive for Mervin as well. A Christmas tree has appeared in his room, along with the opportunity to write a letter to Santa Claus. Will Santa fulfill Mervin’s wishes? Well… it’s worth a try.
Besides the holiday touch, we’ve prepared another batch of new content. Check out what awaits Mervin in this update!
What’s new?
New quests
We’ve added new quests that expand the game world and get Mervin into even stranger situations (and trouble).
New character: The Swamp Witch
On the outskirts of Wackyngton, a mysterious Swamp Witch appears. Her intentions are not always clear, but one thing is certain – working with her can bring very tangible benefits… if we’re willing to pay the right price.

New app: Witch’s Shop
A new app has appeared on Mervin’s computer – the Witch’s Shop. You’ll find magical items there that make gameplay easier and help you get rid of tedious tasks.

New game in the Smoke app: Veggie Clicker
Smoke has been expanded with a new minigame. Veggie Clicker is a simple, addictive experience where you click, collect vegetables and… keep going until you forget why you launched the game in the first place. Perfect for true nerds.
As part of the Steam Winter Sale, Nerd Simulator is now available with a 20% discount.
If you haven’t had the chance to check out Mervin’s life yet or were waiting for the right moment, this is it. The promotion is time-limited, so don’t miss out. Below you can watch the trailer we prepared especially for this occasion.

Hi Nerds!
We’ve prepared the first update after the Early Access launch. A lot of new features and improvements have arrived. See for yourself what has changed in Mervin’s life!
What’s New?
New way to earn money: Become a dealer!
Turns out gardening can be profitable. Plant, nurture, harvest and sell to earn some extra cash!
New character: Therapist!
In the fight for a better life, the most important thing is not to lose your mind. A therapist joins the game. We’ve added the introduction to a new storyline that will be expanded in future updates!
New app: Smoke!
We all love games, right? Mervin’s computer now has a new game store called Smoke. Spend all your hard-earned money on games and become a true nerd!
New app: Darknet!
We’ve also added a shady platform where the desperate citizens of Wackyngton post ads to buy various herbs… and who else should profit from it if not Mervin?
Achievements:
We’ve added 50 achievements with varying difficulty levels. Can you collect them all and earn the Platinum Badge?

Almost all games now support both WASD and arrow-key controls.

Time always returns to normal speed when the phone rings
