Evaluation

IT Simulator launched on June 1, 2022 after roughly two years of development. The developer shipped two bug-fix patches in the days immediately following launch (June 2 and June 3, 2022) to address post-release issues. That June 3, 2022 patch is the last recorded communication from Bad Byte Games. There are no unreleased DLC listings, no roadmap, no season pass, and no developer announcements of future content of any kind. The post-launch activity was purely maintenance — squashing launch-day bugs — with no feature additions or content expansions following. The game appears to have launched as a self-contained, finished product, and the developer has made no indication of plans to extend it.

About this game

IT Simulator is a co-op horror game where two players attempt to return power to an office building. This simulator will give you first-hand experience of the vital work of an IT professional. On your first day you must:

  • Fix the wifi
  • Repair copy machines
  • È̸̮͕͖̔s̷̞̩̦͗͋ć̴̨̝͈͝a̷̪͝p̸͇͝e̴͖̾͗ ̷̖̩̄̉w̷͙͉͉̐͗h̴̨̖̻̑i̵̖̖̖͘l̶̝̥̔̒ȅ̷̤ ̵̢͝ỵ̴̞͗ö̴̟͐͆u̵͍͂ ̶̻̀̏s̴͙͛̎t̸̡̧̠̓̅i̴̡̪̥̽l̵͙̄́ĺ̷͎̘ ̵̜͘c̶̨̖̊͊̓a̷͈̺͗n̷͖̰̂͒

Uh oh! Seems like someone messed with cosmic forces beyond their comprehension! Worst of all, the door out is locked tight! Don't worry, there is nothing here an expert can't handle.

You're going to need to get the lights back on so you can escape. Unfortunately for you, the backup generator on the bottom floor is blocked by a slew of obstacles. Good thing we installed these repair terminals everywhere. WARNING: Accessing SPLADD REPAIR TERMINALS without permission is a security violation and grounds for discharge. Unauthorized use will alert security.

Teamwork is key!




You're not alone in this! SPLADD IT work is done in a two-man team. The Control Room Operator has access to floor-wide diagnostics and can give access to SPLADD REPAIR TERMINALS. Additionally, emergencies grant them access to security cameras and doors to keep employees safe. WIth such a vital job, you'd think they would need more protection than a flimsy wooden door.

MOTION DETECTED




The motion trackers just beeped. No employees other than you two have trackers online though. It's probably just a malfunction during this repair cycle. I still wouldn't go near any unexpected lights.

END TRANSCRIPT SPLADD Sys v2.1.5



Initial Investigation Notes: The black box data is heavily damaged and I'm forced to run it on old hardware. As I delve deeper into the archive, what I'm seeing becomes stranger and stranger. I'm starting to think that THING isn't the main threat.
