This game feels like a bunch of great ideas and concepts put together but not really leading anywhere... The creator said that the story is told very indirectly so i guess i just wasn't smart/patience enough to decipher it. Although sometimes the game is very interesting i couldn't keep going through because at other times it just felt boring and rutinary. So if you have enough with just appeasing your eyes with the art style and the bizarre/weird scenarios in the game i recommend it, otherwise i guess you may have a hard time.
It´s a good little abseurdist time, may be a tad short but most of the bits are neat and custom

I enjoyed the way this game used its 1-bit style to enhance the weird office atmosphere. All-in-all a pretty good surreal experience with some good puzzle elements. I think people can enjoy the atmosphere, and experimenting to find alternate options on certain floors. The game can also work with a controller if you test the buttons a bit. [spoiler] The extended portion of floor 52 was an interesting surprise, and I enjoyed engaging with it. I did have to just assume I was done with it when I "escaped", as I wasn't seeing a way out after beating every "boss" chamber. It's also amusing that unlocking everything in the main game basically turns into one last punchline.[/spoiler]
Amazing Underated gem, reminds me a little of imscared mixed with spookies jumpscare mansion and the stanley parable.
Very nice
dystopian office (wet)work, pretty cool
Работа таинственна и важна. Присоединяйтесь :)

Haven't gotten 100% but I got to the end. A neat game that instructs you to do menial tasks. Reminds me a good deal of Moral Dilemma without the Stanley Parable-esque voiced narrator, though the pager seems to take its place. Each room/floor/task is some sort of simple metaphor or joke about working in a corporation. Some nice gags. There's probably another couple hours in the game if I want to get the last 3 achievements which I'll probably do gradually. I think you just get them by getting different "endings" in each level or something but I'm not sure. I don't exactly know what I did in the levels it says I have "completed". Has a few cheap jumpscares but they're mostly silly. It's tagged psych horror but its really not aside from the slightly ominous atmosphere. Doesn't seem to be more to this game than that so if that sounds like a fun few hours then get the game. I could be wrong, though. There's probably extra stuff if I go back and "finish" more levels.
[b]"Inspired by Severance, Franz Kafka, David Lynch, The Prisoner (1967), The Stanley Parable, Sonny Boy, Serial Experiments Lain"[/b] А в итоге имеем какую-то фигню да и не о чем. Просто пустышка. Набор бессвязных идей. Набор бессвязных этажей. Словами не описать насколько всё это действо скучно и бессмысленно. Тот случай когда вдохновение целым списком отличных произведений не гарантирует хороший результат на выходе.
