Microsoft goes 8-bit to put IT pros in the limelight

Comedy. Intrigue. Servers. In the sequel to last year’s pixellated retro adventure, Microsoft and Fuel Industries invite IT pros and gamers alike to step into the loafers of office techheads Matt and Alicia as they attempt to salvage their reputation after an embarrassing email slip-up.

Server Quest II (http://www.server-quest.com) is a browser-based game that reawakens the glory days of retro adventure gaming in order to allow players behind the curtain of today’s IT struggles. Created to promote Microsoft and poke fun at office culture, the game features a whole new set of tech puzzles and mini-games that will ask users to pull deep from their reservoir of both tech knowledge and gaming to give two geeks another chance—all while keeping the office online.
