Awards & Reviews

AGS Panel Rating

A great little game with good story and characterisation. Although what lets it down are the animations and the lack of sound (although there are a few sound effects in the intro).
Interesting concept and puzzles, even more so if you like talking on the phone a lot.
Worth a go and the author shows a lot of potential.

Thanks to whoever reported the download links as broken. Now fixed.

A fun little adventure, revolving around the office workplace.

I'm sure anyone who has been employed can identify with much of the storylines in this game. (I swear every place I work for, there is a lady obsessed with stationary!).

Worth playing, and who knows, maybe a sequel? (though it has been 8 years passed now...)

A company life in its good and bad is rendered closely to the real world. Also how people are too quickly judged...

The lack of music is as in reality. But there is no coffee machine, and no open space.
The puzzle are enjoyable, but easy.

Poor Colin! Apparently he wasn't in the mood for working this particular monday :-)
