Red Tape

Welcome to Hell Incorporated in Red Tape

In Red Tape, players find themselves navigating the chaotic world of Hell Incorporated, where a mix-up in paperwork has landed you, an angelic being, among the damned. Set against a backdrop of nine distinct circles of employment, this PC game blends platforming and problem-solving elements in a satirical depiction of corporate bureaucracy. How does one survive—and thrive—in a work environment presided over by dark forces?

Navigate the Nine Circles of Employment

Each circle in Hell Inc. presents a unique theme and set of challenges, reflecting the classic literary circles of Hell. Players traverse from Limbo, the reception area, to Treachery, the administration section. As you tackle tasks related to each circle's theme—like handling HR grievances in Lust or sorting invoices in Greed—you’ll experience the absurdity of corporate life magnified through a hellish lens. There’s no shortage of bizarre encounters and quirks awaiting in every department.

Conquer Bureaucratic Obstacles

Gameplay combines traditional platforming mechanics such as running and jumping, with the mundane frustrations of waiting in line and interacting with oddly charismatic coworkers. The bureaucratic challenges often test problem-solving skills, forcing players to think creatively and strategically. Each encounter reveals more about the inner workings of Hell Inc., peeling back layers of corporate satire as you prepare for an audience with the Devil himself.

Meet Your Colorful Co-workers

A rich array of characters inhabit Hell Inc., enhancing the narrative and gameplay. Each department features its own assortment of quirky employees, from the eternal optimists to the despairingly pessimistic. Adding to the game’s charm, these characters contribute to the whimsical storytelling, helping or hindering your progress through unique dialogue and objectives that vary across the nine circles.

Tackling Tasks and Climbing the Ranks

In Red Tape, advancement means solving a myriad of issues across different departments. Whether it's responding to a customer complaint in the Wrath circle or deciphering marketing strategies in Heresy, the game keeps players engaged with a wide range of tasks. As you climb the corporate ladder in this Afterlife company, expect to face increasingly complex problems that require multi-faceted solutions and sometimes, a bit of mischief.

A Unique Blend of Humor and Challenge

The balance of humor and gameplay mechanics in Red Tape is a standout feature. Rather than a typical beat-em-up or platforming experience, it combines quirky challenges with narrative-driven content that keeps players entertained. The game's satire cleverly critiques both corporate culture and the concept of hell itself, making mistake-fueled missions and absurd tasks both funny and thought-provoking.

Experience the Weirdness on PC

Available exclusively on PC, Red Tape uses colorful graphics and clever design to draw players into its bizarre world. The visual representation of Hell Inc. is both engaging and a bit surreal, encapsulating the chaos that is often found in large corporations. With its unique premise and engaging gameplay, it offers a fresh take on what it means to work in a corporate setting—albeit one filled with demons and absurdity.
