Best part was, there was a free demo. Which is nothing like the main game but simply based on what I experience in that 20 minutes, I slammed down a very small sum for what is a great little gem of a game. If you can even call it a game.
The gist is that you control someone who works in an office block, in an attempt to find your missing co-workers. But even that slight synopsis I just gave you may be giving you more of a motive than you would expect. Truth be told, there is no goal, no purpose, no action, no puzzles, no guns and no skill required to enjoy every shinning second this experience provides. Thanks to some rock-solid writing and story-telling, it's an intriguing, genuinely funny, and at times, mildy creepy journey that is literally worth replaying over and over. In fact, I would encourage that as the game has more than ten different 'endings,' and believe me, you will want to discover all of them; that is the closest thing you will get to a grand goal, even if the game never really acknowledges your accomplishments and choices. But that's all part of it's unique charm that crawls under your skin and is sure to stick with you for years to come.
Check out the free demo if you have a steam account, heck, make a Steam account just to play the demo.
