Salary Man Escape Is An Intriguing Satirical Puzzler For PSVR

We want to see a lot of different types of experiences on Sony’s PlayStation VR (PSVR): shooters, dramas, survival games, oh, and games about helping trapped business men escape hellish corporate worlds.

Wait, what?

Strange as it sounds, that’s the idea behind Salary Man Escape, a bizarre new puzzle game from indie developer RAS. The game features 78 levels in which you view environments like dioramas that must be manipulated in order to help desperate salary men escape their torturous lives. With two Move controllers in hand, you can manipulate the world around you, moving blocks to clear paths that lead to doors. Think of it like Lemmings, only as one big metaphor for the exhausting world of work. Cheery!

The trailer above gives you an idea of what to expect; we’re really intrigued by the way that game seems to exploit the anxieties and stresses that come with a regular 9:00 am to 5:00 pm job.

Salary Man Escape is set to launch on 23rd May.
