A pointy-clicky comedy corporate thriller. Solve puzzles, get to know your colleagues, and unravel a sinister global conspiracy. All in a day's work. The Biggleboss Incident is a fun, funny point and click adventure that somehow merges Monkey Island, Office Space, and a smidge of Metal Gear Solid. It’s just like those adventure games you remember, only without the insane moon logic. — INTRIGUING STORY! — There is NOTHING sinister happening at Biggleboss Inc. Or at least that’s what the company motto says. Tom doesn’t have time to debate semantics, though; he’s dangerously late for work – and he hasn’t even started his big Project AGER pitch. Sneaking up to his desk won’t be easy. In his way stands a boatload of bureaucracy, a furlong of fetch quests, and a pretty ominous set of warnings from a mysterious voice in the air vents. * Just what is going on at Biggleboss Inc.?
 * What does it have to do with Tom?
 * And why does it suddenly feel like his day is only set to get weirder? — FULL VOICE ACTING! — This game is fully voiced by real human beings who all got paid. That's 13 actors playing some 18 characters. Why not see if you can guess which ones double up? I bet you can't. — ABOUT 4 HOURS OF ADVENTURING! — That sounds pretty reasonable in this day and age, right? You’re busy, after all.
