ComedyplatformerOrbo’s Odysseyis a game about being locked in your boss’s office. Here are some things I might do if I were locked in my boss’s office (sorry Katharine): approve expense claims, sift their browser history for blackmail material and oh, who am I kidding, what I’d really do is perch on the desk, quiet as a churchmouse, waiting to be let out. Orbo’s boss keeps an… atypical office, however. It harbours product portals that take you to alternate worlds, hewn from the same seam of weirdness asPsychonauts.
