Text adventures are a nice genre. I had really fun walking around in that office, and the different paths were really interesting.
I liked how there were multiple opportunities for success in the game and not just one garden path to the win state. The navigation commands of forward/back etc. were interesting to me as well as someone who's played a lot of text adventures with the standard cardinal directions. I enjoyed reading the source too, when the source and the gameplay are all text it gives a unique feeling to experience both.
I usually suck at text games, but loved this one! Was not that hard to beat too, but I wonder what those achievements I haven't unlocked are :)
Cool game! I hope that employee gets some rest!
I played 'Office Story' in DrRacket! It was fun, it reminded me of my times playing Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. It was fun looking at the code as well, I've wondered how these kind of games would be written. Thank you!
