About
Somewhere in the world, in a draconian office complex, a non-tech-savvy worker clicked on a bad link and installed a bunch of malware. These viruses were so bad, they used the printers and fax machines to print themselves and escape the computers, before wreaking havoc across the whole office and destroying everything!
In Corporate Viruses, you play as the IT technician sent in to sort out this mess. You don't have a gun (why would you??), so to destroy the internet-inspired Meoware and Trojans you run around and pick up whatever you can find around the office:
- Pens?
- Keyboards?
- Monitors?
- Sandwiches?
- Hidden wine bottle stashes?
Controls
- WASD - Move
- Mouse - Look / aim
- LMB / RMB - Pick up / throw items (for left/right hands)
- G - Drop last item
- ESC - Pause
