The AGS Panel is a team of AGS forum veterans who play all of the games here, and give them ratings from one to five cups. The rating system is as follows:

1 Cup	Not serious entertainment
2 Cups	A reasonable game, worth a try
3 Cups	A good game, worth playing
4 Cups	A great game, well worth your time
5 Cups	An outstanding, must-play game!

Feel free to disagree with the panel's rating, and please don't be offended if you think your game has been under-rated!

(Why has my game been rated 1 cup?)

Close window

If your game has been rated 1 cup, please don't be offended! It's common for your first game release to get a 1-cup rating, due to the game having a lack of polish and flair -- which is understandable, because you're just getting started!

Please understand that the main purpose of the ratings is to help potential game players find high quality, bug-free games to play. You've probably learnt a lot about AGS as a result of making your first game -- so why not use that knowledge to start afresh, and do even better with your next game!

About this game

After what may well have been the worst weekend of his life the final insult comes when Colin Simpson has to go back to work on Monday morning! But can he continue to put up with a job he hates for a horrible boss?

EXPERIENCE the thrills, boredom and petty mindedness of working in a real office!

ENJOY the company of other employees, most of whom you would never talk to outside of work!

AGS Panel Review

"A great little game with good story and characterisation. Although what lets it down are the animations and the lack of sound (although there are a few sound effects in the intro). Interesting concept and puzzles, even more so if you like talking on the phone a lot. Worth a go and the author shows a lot of potential."

7 people commented on this game (newest first):

A company life in its good and bad is rendered closely to the real world. Also how people are too quickly judged...

The lack of music is as in reality. But there is no coffee machine, and no open space.
The puzzle are enjoyable, but easy.

Nice little game! The only complaints I have are on the walkcycles, which are a bit 'stiff', and on the colours (a tad hard on my eyes, but it may be my monitor).
Apart from that, a well developed game: dialogues are funny, characters well portraited, puzzle logical and enjoyable; the whole "office microcosm" packed in a short and catchy adventure game.

Recommended!

Nice game, for a first game I must say, the cutscenes / actions and puzzles were cool.

I didn't like the character animation, but as the backgrounds, it was simple but quite nice.

No bugs spotted aswell.

Good job !
