The Good
- Real-time gameplay feels fresh and adds drama
- allows multiple routes to be creative and complete objectives
- clever use of ‘80s elements (floppy discs, fax machines, cassette players) in solving puzzles.
The Bad
- Clunky controls make sneaking imprecise
- interface feels fiddly, especially under the game’s time pressures
- dialogue is sometimes hammy and melodramatic
- narrative gets lost in sea of aliases and code names.
Our Verdict
Uneven
A near-equal balance of good and bad that can make a game either fall disappointingly short of its evident potential or be mildly entertaining despite its many failings.
There’s a fair bit of fun to be had sneaking about the workplace in this first-person fixed-time thriller at first, but The Occupation ends up overstaying its welcome due to some clumsy implementation.
