This was pretty fun, and I liked the unusual setting and dry humour. There seemed to be a few hanging threads which I wasn't sure if they were red herrings or unfinished puzzles, and I got stuck a couple of times with things that I didn't actually realise I could do (like moving the resignations and calling the engineer - it would've been nice to have a had a little more signposting on those), but on the whole I really enjoyed the game!
Lovely, very creative game concept!
For those of us working in ICT hiding in the server room with cans and food would seem eminently sensible to avoid a meeting. I was intrigued to find out why but, just opening things to find items did detract a little - still intrigued if the Cleaner is a person or a Henry... so would love to see that explored further!
A lot of fun! The puzzle with the engineer was very creative. Great tone. Well done!
Fun little game, interesting puzzles, small map yet interesting.
