Behind the time clock

About the game

Escape the Office is a free arcade gauntlet about making it through one absurd workday. A boxing dream against your boss leads into the commute, security gate, meetings, bathroom sprint, last-minute data call, and five-o'clock stampede.

Built for the browser

The game has no download, account, or installation. Its pixel art, animation, sound effects, and chiptune music are generated in code and delivered as a lightweight static website.

What success looks like

The goal is not only to escape quickly. The boxing prologue determines your starting morale, every second at work drains it, and clears refill it while failures cost an additional chunk. The leaderboard rewards composure first and speed second: highest morale wins, with the fastest time used as the tiebreaker.

Play it your way

Escape the Office supports keyboard and mouse, Xbox-style controllers, and on-screen touch controls for phones and tablets.
