About the Game

The game is intended for an adult audience!

Inspired by 90’s point-and-click adventure games, ‘Overvakerne’ ('The Monitors') is a comedy/satire point-and-click adventure game. It tells the story of Henriksen, a typical office worker who realizes he has been treated badly by his colleagues. This realization turns out to be "the straw that broke the camel's back", and Henriksen sets out on a revenge spree. Take on the role of the vengeful Henriksen as you traverse the premises of his (unorthodox) workplace and exact revenge on his wrong-doers.
