This game, part of the Desktop Toys series, features characters from Scott Adams' popular Dilbert comic strip engaged in avariety of time wasters. In typical Dilbert style, the game features undertones of office incompetence and companyineffectiveness, including voice acting of sarcastic quips and sayings in a variety of character voices. Many of the games areplayed on "screenshots" of the current desktop, allowing carnage to spread from the game onto the work documents the playermight have had open.
The ultimate objective in Dilbert's Desktop Gamesis to play each game, uncovering a a hidden "part" to the Desktop Toysmachine. Successfully obtaining all of these parts (usually by shooting it) will unlock a "secret" Dilbert video on the cd-rom.All in all, there are 6 mini-games that feature the machine parts, often clones of arcade-style action, that can be played:Techno Raiders: Dilbert must navigate the halls of his office in this platform game and avoid obstacles and traps set by"Techno Bill" who is attempting to usurp office technical superiority. As he ascends the office building, the challenges gettougher and tougher.
Enduring Fools: Suddenly a bunch of idiots start opening doors to the player's desktop and disturbing productivity! There'sonly one solution then... to zap them all as quickly as possible with the phaser provided. Players move the mouse around,aiming and firing at co-workers before they exit
Elbonian Airlines: The cheapest way to fly is by slingshot! Players send management on a variety of "business trips" towardsvarious targets that appear on the screen.
Boss Evaders: In a Space Invaders clone: The bosses are firing pinkslips from the top of the screen down at Dilbert. To justifyhis job, he must evade the firings and fire yellow status back towards the bosses. Inboxes will act as shields and absorb pinkslips but only for so long. Extra Lives can be gained if the player is able to hit the "Bungie Boss" that briefly appears onthe screen.
Project Pass-off: It's meeting time and that's when the boss is handing out work. Players use the keyboard to try to knock thegood assignments to their team (like donuts and cash bonuses) and send the bad assignments to the opponent's team (like actualwork). This game is also 2 player.
Can-O-Matic: Deadlines are coming up and the company needs to get as many products out as possible. There's obviously only oneway to get this done... by loading expendable employees into Catbert's cannon and firing them at product ideas outside thecompany. Players try to hit as many profitable ideas while avoiding defective ones which will electrocute the employees.In addition to these games which provide parts for the Desktop Games machine, Dilbert's Desktop Games also provides someadditional games and time wasters:
CEO Simulator: For players who think they could run the company better... CEO Simulator is a simple managerial game, playedover several days. As the owner of a small company, the player must keep productivity high and the employees motivated. Playerscan try to manage it to death, provide gifts or just leave the employees alone.
The Jargonizer: Not technically a game, players can paste or type any innocent looking text into the window and then use theJargonizer to add corporate jargon, buzz-words and managerial nonsense to the use of the English language. If nothing else, oneshould be able to fancy up a mission statement!
The Final Word: Also not a game, this allows players to affix humorous "stamps" onto the screenshots, preferably of My compatibility CD does not alter the retail game or bypass copy protection. It allows the original media to install andrun correctly on any modern version of Windows.
