Springvikarierna is a boardgame where players take the role of Gig-workers competing for the scarce jobs. Main mechanic is hidden auction (how desperate are you today?). Then different life- and work-related events can trigger, sometimes making you choose from options. The two resources of the game is HEALTH and MONEY that needs to be balanced. The players who can pay the rent at end of game without "hitting the wall" wins. (So no explicit win criteria, however there are some options in the rulebook for this if you want to play it fully competitive.) —description from the designer
