Odd Job
A downloadable game for Windows
ODD JOB is a modern take on the 90-degree, tile-based, RPG dungeon crawler genre, combining classic gameplay with modern twists.
YOU'RE A JANITOR IN THE 80s
You’ve been called in for a late-night shift at the headquarters of HR Inc. Mop the floors, clean the windows, and stay away from floor 24. Simple.
Just one problem—you can’t leave!
There’s something seriously wrong with this building; something behind that door. You couldn’t help but open it — and now, you’re trapped in a maze of twisting corridors and eerie rooms. The deeper you go, the stranger things become.
Will you find your way out?
A GAME FOR FOLKS WHO LOVE
