A wonderful short game by the same guy that made Heat Signature. It's a 2D puzzle game revolving around breaking in to buildings and re-wiring all the electronics. You can rewire a light switch to call a lift, get a security camera to open a door. The thing that really makes it stand out is the writing; the missions are short, but the mission briefs and the dialogue options are hilarious. The humour from the trailer really shows throughout the game. Finished it in 2 hours 20 minutes, but enjoyed every minute of it. Only criticism would be that everything is a bit small, and it doesn't cope well with larger monitors, but it is 5 years old.

Back to all games
