About This Game The only good office worker is a good office worker. - Sun TzuPlay through the career of an office worker, and enjoy the thrills and chills that only an office can offer. The point of the game is to figure out the point of the game, so only the most diligent employee will thrive in this harsh world...Features: MIDI music.640x480px resolution.256 colors.Adlib sound effects.Daily missions (with a real progression)Exploration.Easter eggs and secrets.No TPS reports.Achievements. 6d5b4406ea Title: PayrollGenre: Adventure, Casual, Indie, SimulationDeveloper:GZ Storm, AstrojonePublisher:AstrojoneRelease Date: 10 Nov, 2015 Payroll Download Install throw Mirror's Edge into the \u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665ing garbage dump, this is the "dilbert experience" todaythis is as NSFW it gets. Ehh I'd pass on Payroll. After first turning it on, I thought this felt like it could be something special, but the more I played it, it felt ho-hum. I think it looks beautiful, but the actual play was underwhelming. It could have been more abstract and dare I say edgy. Yes, it has a Stanley Parable feel, but none of the heart. I will say that it's a decent achievement hunting game to 100%. Getting all of the achievements is fairly easy and there is a sweet guide to help you. The gameplay is certainly far superior to most cash-grab achievement based games.Essentially, this is a walking simulator with a series of fetch quests, and some interesting secrets. It is very short; in fact one of the achievements is to simply play the game for 2 hours. Controller support is nice, and the whole game feels polished. The dev obviously put a lot of care into it. I just wish it was more of a thinkpiece.Pros:+It looks beautiful+Overall has a lot of polish and controller support is good+Good for 100%ing and achievement hunting+CheapCons:-Ah, that music is too generic for me-Not a whole lot going on, or to think about really-Not something I care to play after getting all the achievements (compared to another short game - Thirty Flights of Loving, which I would showcase to friends)-What is all that 'payroll' dialogue you forced me to sit through? It went on forever and didn't really make senseIt's cheap, this is true. Buy it if you are looking to get fairly decent games to 100%, but if you are looking for something with the quality and tone of The Stanley Parable - I fear you will be disapointed.. It's so bad, it's good okay.. This game is something to behold. It is committed to the idea that this is a lost game from Windows 95. Starts off hard, but gets easier once you know where to find the objectives. (hint: computer)https:\/\/youtu.be\/YyxvplhC_iE. This game is a case of "great concept, poor execution".In Payroll, you assume the role of an office drone. The game is meant to feel like a windows 95 era throwback, and captures the spirit of the era with it's simple mechanics and 256-color graphics. Unfortunatley, that's about all it gets right.The gameplay is frustrating, and you are only given the most cryptic of indications of what you are supposed to be doing. Every character "speaks" in a manner reminicant of the adult dialogue in a Charlie Brown cartoon. The tasks are menial, and there is pretty much zero fun to be had. You're better off watching old reruns of "The Office". I really can't find a single reason to reccomend this game to anyone. Don't waste your time.. really good game didnt expect it to be quite interesting\/fun.
