Love the idea of making office conversation into RPG battles, but I wasn't able to really figure out the mechanics. It doesn't seem like there's a way you can lose if you regularly go back to the water cooler. I did have a laugh at some of the dialogue though, especially the ending.

Funny concept ! The walking sound is a bit too loud and repetitive. also I'm not if I died or win but I got back to the main menu at some point. Might need some screen telling me I lost or something.

Original and fun idea !

The dialogs are great!
It's a simple idea on a great implementation. 
I had a lot of fun playing, and loved the end!

Congrats!
