The World’s Gone To Hell, But You Still Have To Go To Work, Just Like In This Horror Game

A famous poet once said, “Work sucks; I know.” That timeless truth is the backdrop for HR: Human Remains, an upcoming first-person horror game in which demons have taken over the world, but you’re still clocking in for your desk job.

Today, GameSpot can exclusively reveal the release date; it’s coming to Steam on September 22. Check out the brand-new release date trailer below for more.

With an aesthetic reminiscent of the original PlayStation era, HR: Human Remains has a darkly humorous tone, but is still very much a horror game.

In it, you’ll be stuck as an office clerk, interacting with co-workers and your extra-horrible bosses while uncovering a story with multiple endings to experience based on your choices.

There are Sunday Scaries, and then there’s whatever this guy has got himself into.

You’ll need to solve puzzles to explore hidden places, while also collecting items with which you can decorate your break room. To me, it sounds sort of like three parts Hellraiser and one part Office Space, and I can surely dig that.

The game is on the way from developer DennisCorner and publisher Black Lantern Collective, which specializes in indie horror games. You can check out HR: Human Remains on Steam.
