Great build, although in this context I wish I didn't know about the horror before going in. Really gets the imagination running.

Super impressive, I loved the writing in this one! Such a cool mix of horror dread and stuck-in-an-office-job dread. I liked the ending that I got but I'm so curious about the other 13...

I'm Sure of ItI feel like the ending where you answer the headset instead of your phone is supposed to be some sort of dark pun on the title and if so, I applaud you for it.

Computer Solves the Cancer CrisisI enjoyed it! That was a bit intense and i got immersed. Echoing the suggestion about an acknowledgement of the ending though, as I wasn't sure if it was a bug that there weren't any further options, or if it was truly the end. (It did feel complete though, so I'm thinking that's complete.) Thanks for making this! Deffo one of my fave entries.

gospel says (i lied)This was fantastic! I used to work in a call centre kind of job, so the general attitude of the MC really resonated with me. The tension build-up was fantastic.
Apart from the abrupt ending with no acknowledgment as mentioned below, the only other suggestion I'd have would be to use desaturated or darker colours for the background. I had to lower the brightness of my screen, as the yellow was a bit too strong for me.
Hope you make more like this!

Seek A Way OutHey !
I really liked your game and the narration. I really sunk into the writing and got really hooked by the way you wrote the different interactions. I think you nailed pretty well the way to create tension with the writing, and this is mostly what really hooked me in your game.
I played only one playthrough tho, and was satisfied with the ending I got :p.
Thanks for your game :)

Think Of Some GiftThat was so cool! I played it several times to get a few different endings (and OK, I admit, the promised kissing) and really enjoyed all the run throughs. Agreed with the other commenter that it would be nice to have some kind of acknowledgement of hitting an ending, but it was easy enough to find the restart button! Really enjoyed this!
I am a fan of this kind of horror, AND I simply love the kind of ambience you got going on here!! There were a few typos here and there, and also the fact that the endings arrive so abruptly without a Replay button or Credits feels a bit odd... but all and all, I enjoyed it! I even played a few times to see what I missed!
Really engaging!
