You are working late, the last one in the office. As the clock strikes midnight, the familiar environment transforms into something sinister. The lights flicker and die, strange whispers echo down empty corridors, and you realize you are not alone. Office Horror Story plunges you into a terrifying first-person experience where you must explore the eerie, abandoned offices of a seemingly normal corporate building. Your goal is simple: survive and escape. To do this, you must search desks, open locked drawers, solve environmental puzzles, and uncover hidden clues that reveal the dark history of your workplace. Every shadow could hide a secret, and every sound could be a warning. The game masterfully builds tension through atmospheric lighting, unsettling sound design, and a slowly unraveling narrative that you piece together yourself. Can you keep your nerves steady and your wits sharp enough to find the way out before something finds you?

Finally a horror game where the puzzles actually make sense and are fun to solve. The office setting is so relatable, which makes it even creepier.
Perfect length for a scary story. I was genuinely nervous exploring the cubicles. Some of the clues were a bit hard to find, but that added to the challenge.
Office Horror Story is my new favorite free-to-play horror experience. It proves you do not need jump scares every second to build real tension.
Great game for fans of escape rooms. The environment tells a story. I wish there were a few more puzzles, but overall it is very satisfying.
Played this alone at night with headphones. Big mistake. Brilliant game. The way it uses a normal office to create fear is genius.
A masterclass in environmental storytelling. You feel the history of the place. The puzzles are integrated perfectly into the world.
Scary but not overwhelming. I do not usually play horror games, but this one kept me engaged with its mystery. Well done.
Office Horror Story is designed to be atmospheric and suspenseful rather than gory or violently scary. It relies on tension and mystery. However, it does contain dark themes and frightening imagery that may not be suitable for very young children. Parental discretion is advised.
The average playtime for a first-time player is between 30 to 60 minutes, depending on how quickly you solve the puzzles. The game is designed to be a complete, satisfying horror experience in a single session.

You primarily use the keyboard for movement (WASD or Arrow Keys) and the mouse to look around and interact with objects. A tutorial or control reminder is usually available at the start of the game.
If you are stuck, try backtracking to previous rooms. You may have missed a note or an item. Examine everything in your inventory carefully. Sometimes the solution involves combining environmental clues with items you are carrying.

The game focuses more on building a constant sense of dread and unease through its atmosphere, sound, and story. While there may be sudden tense moments, it does not rely heavily on cheap jump scares.

The game features a single, narrative-driven conclusion that you reach by solving all the puzzles and uncovering the story. Your choices are focused on exploration and puzzle-solving rather than branching dialogue.
