Overview

What it is

Hottogol is a collection of short interactive simulators, each taking about a minute and ending somewhere unexpected. Its tagline is "Tiny simulators for everyday chaos", and the seven experiences include Dhaka CNG, Food Delivery, Dhaka Bus, Job Resignation, Fake Shopping and House Rent.

Alongside them are four regional-language games about Bengali dialects: a word map, a region guesser, a dialect quiz and a personality test. The site is bilingual, needs no accounts and has no database or backend server.

Results are deterministic, and a shareable result link carries the result data itself, so the same choices and seed give the same outcome on any device. Share-preview cards are generated with next/og.
