This is an interesting take on Visual Novels. Instead of the usual we get a crazy Crime/Mobster story with dark-humor and some adult themes. The writing is not perfect and contains some errors but it's fine for the most part. I like the art and the style - feels fresh, the rest is not so memorable. However, I was surprised by some high quality cut scenes I did not expect at this price point. Actually, it looks like the game is free right now anyways..
The game play itself is inspired by office/clerk job games like Papers, Please, Death & Taxes, Orwell, etc. While you are a hacker by title, spying on people (doing mini games) is only part of your job, the main part is looking through the CVSs of wannabee mobsters and assigning them to one of the four sub-leaders (So, we are in HR). If you mess up you get hurt by the Big Bosses thugs. The mini games are simple memory games, combinatorics, etc. They are usually easy. If you fail to many of them you might get booted. I don't know if there is a lot of replay value, guessing by the achievements there is only little. I only played it for a day, but if time continue to progress at the same pace we are set to spend about 10-15 hours to complete our Two Weeks in Painland. Definitely worth a try!
