Dad's Office 1998

About this game

A liminal horror game about escaping your dad's endless procedurally-generated office building.

Background

It's a Friday night in 1998 and you're 9 years old. Your workaholic dad is forced to bring you along to his office to handle something mysterious, and you quickly discover that something isn't right. You get separated... but are you really alone?

Gameplay

Explore offices, hallways, stairwells, elevators, atriums, bathrooms, and more as you wander through a seemingly endless liminal office searching for a way back to your dad. Each run is completely different with randomized areas and encounters. Look for clues and keys to progress into new areas, discover secrets, and learn what happened to Dad.

Procedural Generation

All areas of the office are procedurally generated. These are not cookie-cutter rooms randomly snapped together. Instead, complex spaces are mapped and built using individual wall pieces, floors, ceilings, and doors, then populated with furniture and items to create completely unique and different spaces on every play.
