There’s a Gun in the Office is set to make its thrilling debut on the Nintendo Switch on May 5, 2025, with an Asian region release following closely on May 8. Developed by solo creator Maciej Dyjas and published by Take IT Studio!, this psychological escape thriller has already captivated audiences on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and Steam. Now, Switch players can immerse themselves in this intense, detail-oriented adventure.

In There’s a Gun in the Office, players find themselves in a dire situation: kidnapped and locked in a sparsely furnished apartment with no food or help. Over the course of five tense days, from Monday to Friday, you must strategize your escape without alerting your captors. Every decision is critical, as any moved or disturbed object could spell disaster. The game's minimalist controls emphasize observation and survival instincts over combat, making every move a matter of life or death.

The game’s unique setting—a single apartment—adds to the pressure, creating a palpable sense of tension through silence and the looming threat of discovery. The open-ended puzzle-solving mechanics invite players to decide their course of action, blending strategy with survival. As you investigate, you must be meticulous in leaving no trace of your actions.
