OFFICE PARTY: Let's Talk Story (+ Character Sneak Peek)
🕑 Added 2025-07-25 10:30:28 +0000 UTCParty people. Hello again. Today we want to talk about OFFICE PARTY’s story.
As any HOUSE PARTY fan knows, our first game was filled with dozens of branching storylines – none of which could be called a “main storyline.” The wacky paths you chose defined one wild night. A night to remember. But still, just one night.
OFFICE PARTY is busting that narrative structure wide open. We’re big fans of busting.
For the first time, we’re crafting a main storyline for OP: a single thread that spans multiple acts and ends (eventually) leads to a big 'ol credits-roll. After plenty of fire-starting and de-pantsing of your coworkers, of course.
The main storyline kicks off the moment you wake up on your first day at Donghauser Unlimited. You’re the newest faithful cog in a mysterious corporate machine. Climb the ranks. Make allies. Uncover secrets. And shape the path of our branching narrative however the hell you want. This story is all about choice. Defining your place in this strange corporate world, then choosing to blow the top off of it, or ruling over it yourself.
But listen close: we’re expanding HP’s narrative model – not restricting it.
Like any good RPG, the main storyline in OFFICE PARTY is completely optional. You can dive in and uncover the big mystery behind Donghauser… or you can just live in the world, cause chaos, build relationships, and see what shakes loose.
Outside the main story, there are dozens of branching side plots and sandbox opportunities to explore. Friends to make. Enemies to embarrass. Bedposts to notch. We’ve packed this game with all kinds of weird, wild, wonderfully depraved shit.
And none of it’s just for the lulz or the boobz.
Every storyline you pursue has the potential to affect the main story. Everything’s woven together like some kind of narrative quilt. We’re like the shittier versions of George R.R. Martin! We’ve got suspenders and everything!
The main way that side plots interweave with the main storyline is focused around the relationships you forge. Help someone find their lost pet, and you might just earn a friend who changes the outcome of a major event down the line. Save someone from an ass-beating, they may save your ass when things go sideways.
So yeah, we’re swinging big. But what’s the point of having big dicks if you can’t swing them around from time to time?
And if you’re wondering how we’re pulling all this off over the course of just one night…
We’re not. This ain’t HP, friendos.
OFFICE PARTY features time progression. Days will pass. The sun sets. The sun rises. And with it comes change. More on that soon.
Before we go, there's someone that would like to say hello. Meet Chupito. He's got a bit of a substance-sucking problem, but what else do you expect from a robotic vacuum?
Chupito is one of many residents you'll meet at DU's corporate housing. Many more faces to meet...
Thanks, as always, to our Patrons. You keep us well-stocked on overpriced Belgian beer. We think it counts as a tax write-off.
